Before / after

From maintaining data infrastructure to shipping product features

Before

  • Feeding agents knowledge frozen at the model's cutoff
  • Building crawlers, scrapers, and pipelines internally
  • Maintaining infrastructure that isn't part of your product
  • Combining multiple vendors to fill data gaps
  • Spending weeks collecting data before building features

After

  • Pull live web data the moment your product needs it
  • Access web, brand, and company data through APIs
  • Let CtxAPI handle the data infrastructure layer
  • Replace multiple vendors with a single platform
  • Start building features sooner

Agentic setup

Set it up your way.

Do it yourself in the dashboard, or let your AI agent handle the whole thing.

Do it yourself

  1. Write hello@ctxapi.bar and verify your email.
  2. Copy your API key from the reply.
  3. Install the SDK and start calling the API.

Let your agent do it

Paste one line into your coding agent — it requests a key, then follows the docs to integrate CtxAPI.

Sign up via ctxapi.bar/contact.html, then follow ctxapi.bar docs to integrate into the codebase.

For AI native products

The {APIs} powering your next feature

Scrape any URL, crawl an entire website, and extract structured data: markdown, HTML, sitemaps, screenshots, and brand intelligence.

Extract

Crawl any site and extract structured data into a JSON Schema you define.

Scrape

Scrape any URL, or crawl an entire site, for clean markdown, rendered HTML, or images.

Sitemap

Crawl and discover all page URLs from any domain via sitemap.

Brand data

Resolve a full brand profile by company identifier, or extract details from one URL.

Styleguide

Get the complete visual identity: colors, elements, and fonts from any website.

Products

Extract product listings or individual product details with a schema.

Screenshots

Generate viewport or full-page screenshots of any website.

Transactions

Match transaction strings to brands with optional location hints.

Schema in

Extract, then ship.

Define the shape. CtxAPI fills it from the live page.

extract.ts POST /v1/web/extract
import CtxAPI from "ctxapi";

const client = new CtxAPI({ apiKey: process.env["CTXAPI_KEY"] });

// Define the exact shape CtxAPI should extract from the page.
const result = await client.web.extract({
  url: "https://www.example.com",
  schema: {
    company_name: "string",
    pricing_tiers: [{ tier_name: "string", tier_price: "number" }]
  }
});

console.log(result.data.pricing_tiers);

Connect your agent to the web

From web scraping to brand extraction in one API.

Read the web, live

Give an agent real-time access to any page. Scrape to markdown, render JS, extract images — so the agent reasons over the current web, not a frozen snapshot.

GET /v1/web/scrape/markdown
{ url: "example.com/pricing" }

Ground RAG in fresh content

Keep your retrieval index current. Crawl a sitemap, convert every page to clean markdown, and pipe it into embeddings — no brittle parsers in between.

Run deep research on demand

Answer “tell me about this company” with actual sources. Resolve a domain to a typed profile, then expand with schema-based extraction from the live site.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free tier?

Yes. A work-email signup can start without a card. Credits and rate limits are confirmed when we issue the key.

How do API credits work?

Simple calls like scraping a page cost 1 credit. Brand retrieval, styleguide, structured extraction, or industry identification cost more. Logo-link image requests are counted separately.

Are there extra fees for JS rendering or proxies?

No hidden surcharges for stealth requests. JS rendering, anti-bot bypass, and premium proxies are included at the standard per-page credit.

Am I billed for failed requests?

No. Credits are only consumed on successful responses. Blocked fetches are not billed.

What SDKs are available?

TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Go, and PHP. Agents can also follow the docs at ctxapi.bar.

Ship

Ship an agent that actually knows things.

Free desk, short integration, same API for scrape, extract, brand, and RAG. No credit card to start.
