# Webpage to Markdown Extractor

> Webpage to Markdown Extractor is a paid API for AI agents from api.x402cloud.space, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-01).

Fetches a public webpage URL and returns clean, readable markdown with title, main content, links, and metadata — stripping ads, navigation, and boilerplate.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability webpage-to-markdown-extractor-6f5ef8dc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the main content from https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/15/openai-announces-new-model/ and give it to me as clean markdown, including the links, up to 20000 characters?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need clean, human-readable markdown from a public webpage for AI consumption — particularly for summarization, research, or RAG pipelines. It is distinct from structured JSON extraction (use the sibling endpoint for schema-defined extraction) and is best when you want readable prose rather than structured data fields.

## Known failure modes

- URL is behind a paywall or login wall — returns empty or partial content
- URL is malformed or unreachable — returns HTTP error or timeout
- Page is JavaScript-rendered SPA with no server-side HTML — may return little or no content
- max_chars is outside the allowed range (1000–50000) — returns validation error
- Target site blocks bots or returns CAPTCHA — content extraction fails
