WHY WE PICKED IT
Firecrawl is the leader of the 'LLM-Data' movement. We picked it because it's the first scraper that actually understands what AI models need: clean, noise-free markdown without the overhead of traditional scraping libraries.
GETTING STARTED
Sign up at firecrawl.dev to get an API key or clone the repo from GitHub to self-host. Use the simple /crawl endpoint to turn any URL into markdown. For developers, use the Python or Node.js SDKs to integrate it directly into your AI agent's workflow.
