# Web Scraper

> Use this tool when you need to extract clean and readable content from web pages, as it fetches URLs and returns markdown text, links, and metadata without requiring API keys or configuration. It solves problems such as data extraction, content summarization, and metadata collection, particularly for server-rendered pages like documentation sites and articles. It takes URLs as input and outputs markdown text, links, and metadata, making it ideal for batch scraping, in-page text search, and Open Graph tag extraction.
