What is Context.dev?

Context.dev is a web context API built specifically for AI products and agents. It lets you scrape any URL, crawl entire websites, convert pages into LLM-ready Markdown, extract structured data into your own schema, capture screenshots, and retrieve brand intelligence like logos, colors, fonts, styleguides, company data, and transaction enrichment—all through a single API. Backed by Y Combinator, it requires no credit card to start and is designed so developers or coding agents can integrate in minutes.

Who it's for

• AI product builders who need to feed their agents live web data instead of relying on stale, cutoff-frozen knowledge.
• Developers tired of maintaining scraping infrastructure who want to replace custom crawlers, parsers, and multiple vendor integrations with one unified platform.
• Coding agents and automated workflows that can self-setup by pasting a single line—signing up, grabbing an API key, and integrating Context.dev without manual intervention.

Key features

Scrape to Markdown in real time

Give any agent live access to a page by converting it to clean Markdown. JavaScript rendering is handled automatically, so the agent reasons over the current web—not a frozen snapshot. Response times are measured in milliseconds.

Extract structured data with your own schema

Define the exact shape of data you want using Zod schemas, and Context.dev extracts it from any URL. Whether it's pricing tiers, company names, or custom fields, the API returns data that matches your schema, ready to use in your product.

Brand and company intelligence

Beyond scraping, Context.dev retrieves logos, color palettes, fonts, styleguides, and company data from any website. This turns a single API call into a full brand audit, useful for competitive analysis, design systems, or transaction enrichment.

Agentic self-setup

You can integrate manually through the dashboard, or let your AI agent handle everything. Paste one line into your coding agent, and it signs up, fetches your API key, and follows the quickstart docs to integrate Context.dev into your codebase automatically.

What stands out

"One API, every piece of web context your agent needs."

This isn't just another scraping tool—it's a complete web context layer that replaces the need to build and maintain crawlers, parsers, and data pipelines internally. By combining scraping, structured extraction, and brand intelligence into a single platform, Context.dev lets teams ship features in days instead of weeks, without juggling multiple vendors or brittle infrastructure.

Worth checking out if…

You're building AI products or agents that need live, structured web data—whether for grounding RAG in fresh content, extracting pricing from competitor pages, or enriching transactions with brand context. If you'd rather spend time on product features than on maintaining scraping pipelines, Context.dev is worth a look.
