web
web_scrape_batch
Use this when you need to extract clean content from multiple web pages at once (up to 10 URLs). Returns the same structured markdown output as web_scrape_to_markdown for each URL. 1. results (array) -- each entry has title, description, author, content, wordCount, charCount, url 2. summary -- total pages scraped, total word count, failed URLs if any Example output: {"results":[{"url":"https://a.com","title":"Page A","wordCount":800},{"url":"https://b.com","title":"Page B","wordCount":1200}],"summary":{"total":2,"totalWords":2000,"failed":0}} Use this FOR building research corpora, comparing content across competitor pages, or bulk documentation extraction. Essential when you have 3+ URLs to process in one workflow. Do NOT use for single URLs -- use web_scrape_to_markdown instead. Do NOT use for SEO comparison -- use seo_audit_batch instead.
web_scrape_to_markdown
Scrape and extract content from a URL with full JS rendering, returned as clean markdown. Alternative to Firecrawl scrape at 2.5x lower cost. Strips navigation, ads, scripts, and boilerplate — ideal for RAG pipelines and AI research agents. 1. title (string) -- page title from <title> tag 2. description (string) -- meta description 3. author (string) -- author from meta tags or schema 4. content (string) -- clean markdown body text, headings preserved 5. wordCount (number) -- total words in extracted content 6. charCount (number) -- total characters 7. url (string) -- final URL after redirects Example output: {"title":"How to Scale APIs","description":"A guide to...","content":"# How to Scale APIs\n\nScaling requires...","wordCount":1250,"charCount":7800,"url":"https://blog.example.com/scale-apis"} Use this BEFORE summarizing articles, building RAG corpora, researching topics from web sources, or extracting data from documentation pages. Essential for any workflow that needs to scrape and extract content from web pages as LLM input. Drop-in replacement for Firecrawl scrape. Do NOT use for screenshots -- use capture_screenshot instead. Do NOT use for SEO audit -- use seo_audit_page instead. Do NOT use for tech stack detection -- use website_detect_tech_stack instead. Do NOT use for web search -- use web_search_query instead.

Web Scraper to Markdown API — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Web Scraper to Markdown API do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: web_scrape_batch, web_scrape_to_markdown. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Web Scraper to Markdown API working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 92 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 11 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Web Scraper to Markdown API as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Web Scraper to Markdown API?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Web Scraper to Markdown API need an API key?
No. Web Scraper to Markdown API completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
Is Web Scraper to Markdown API open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
