What XCrawl is

XCrawl is a scraping API that returns usable formats directly: structured JSON, Markdown or search data, with built-in agents and proxy handling so applications can consume web content without building collection infrastructure.

What you can do with it

  • Crawl pages and receive structured JSON
  • Pull Markdown for downstream processing
  • Use built-in agents for extraction tasks
  • Handle proxies without separate setup
  • Automate recurring collection

Who it is for

  • Developers and data teams
  • AI application builders
  • Teams needing structured web input

What to watch out for

  • Proxy handling exists partly to avoid blocking, and circumventing access controls may breach site terms or local law
  • Robots directives and copyright still govern what you may collect and reuse
  • Personal data in crawled pages brings notice and retention duties
  • Structured output still needs validation before it reaches users

Pros & cons

✓ What we like

  • Usable output formats directly
  • Proxy and agents included
  • API-first integration

! What to watch out for

  • Anti-blocking features are contentious
  • Site terms and copyright apply
  • Personal data exposure
