Tools it offers

14 tools, as the server itself reported during our check on Oct 31, 2026.

  • scrapeFetch one web page and return its main content as clean markdown, with optional HTML, links or structured data. Use it to read a page whose URL you already have. For many pages of one site use crawl; for a list of URLs u
  • mapList the URLs on a website, found through its sitemap and links, without fetching their content. Use it to see which pages exist before choosing which to scrape.
  • crawlDiscover and scrape the pages of a website as one background job, following its links from a starting URL. Returns a crawl id straight away; read progress and results with crawl_status. Each page scraped costs 1 credit,
  • crawl_statusRead a crawl started with crawl: its progress, and one page of the scraped results. When nextOffset is not null, pass it as offset to read the next page of results.
  • batchScrape a list of URLs you already have, such as pages found with map. Waits for the batch to finish and returns the first page of results in the same call, so a short list needs one call; read further pages, or a batch s
  • batch_statusRead a batch started with batch: its progress, and one page of results in the order the URLs were sent. When nextOffset is not null, pass it as offset to read the next page of results.
  • searchSearch the web and return ranked results: title, url and snippet. Set scrapeResults to also fetch each result as markdown, at 1 extra credit per page.
  • brandA company's brand from its domain: logos for light and dark backgrounds, its colours, name, description and social profiles. Use it to answer what a company is or how it presents itself.
  • logoA company's logo as a directly embeddable image URL, chosen for the background you name. Use this rather than brand when the mark is all you need: it costs a fifth as much and returns one asset instead of the whole recor
  • extractPull specific fields out of one or more pages as JSON, shaped by a JSON schema or described in a prompt. Use it when you need values such as prices, names or dates rather than the whole page text.
  • styleguideA site's design tokens read from computed styles in a real browser: colours by role with contrast ratios, the dark theme colours when the site has one, the type scale, corner radius and button styling, how panels, the he
  • screenshotRender a page in a real browser and capture a PNG, returning its public URL. Use when the question is what the page looks like rather than what it says.
  • imagesHarvest a page's images with their metadata, without rendering it. Cheaper than a screenshot and returns the source images rather than a picture of the page.
  • feedbackTell Hydrafetch whether an earlier result was accurate. Use it after a scrape, search or other call returns missing, wrong or blocked content, so it gets looked at; a good rating is welcome too. Pass the requestId from t
