Web Page Reader – Clean Markdown Extraction

Choose this endpoint when you need clean, human-readable text from a public web page without writing HTML parsers or dealing with boilerplate. It is ideal for summarization, quoting, or feeding article text into downstream LLM tasks. Prefer it over general-purpose scrapers when you specifically want Markdown output and readability-style extraction rather than raw HTML or structured data.

• URL is not publicly reachable (private, paywalled, or requires login) — extraction returns empty or error
• Page has no detectable main article content — returns minimal or empty Markdown
• URL is malformed or uses non-http/https protocol — validation error
• Page is JavaScript-rendered (SPA) and content is not in initial HTML — may return empty body
• Network timeout if the target URL is slow to respond
• Rate limiting or bot-blocking on the target site may prevent fetching
