Firecrawl

Scrape + crawl + extract T1 Scraping & Crawling /firecrawl

Firecrawl turns websites into clean, LLM-ready data with best-in-class quality. A single API covers the whole pipeline — scrape a page, crawl an entire site, map its URLs, or pull structured fields against a schema — and returns tidy markdown with navigation and clutter removed by default. Loved across the AI developer community and self-hostable under an open-source license, it’s the standout choice when the quality of the extracted text directly determines how well your model performs.
