Extracting Clean Markdown from Any URL: The PageBolt /extract Endpoint

Extracting Clean Markdown from Any URL: The PageBolt /extract Endpoint You're building an AI agent. Your agent needs to read a web page and understand it. So you do what everyone does: you pass the raw HTML to your LLM. The problem: raw HTML is noise. It's full of scripts, ads, analytics, navigation menus, footers, and junk. Your LLM has to parse through 50KB of garbage to find 2KB of actual content. You're burning tokens and context. There's a better way: extract the page as clean Markdown. The Problem: HTML Noise When you feed raw HTML to an LLM, you're giving it: Scripts and stylesheets (ignored) Navigation menus (ignored) Ads and tracking pixels (ignored) 10KB of boilerplate (wasted tokens) 2KB of actual content (what you need) Your agent pays for all 50KB but can only use 2KB. That's 96% waste. The Solution: /extract Endpoint PageBolt's /extract endpoint does one thing: take a URL, extract the main content, convert it to clean Markdown, and return it. const response = await fetch
