The render API built for AI agents

Turn any public URL into a screenshot, PDF, or structured extract — via REST or MCP. No Chrome fleet to babysit. Honest free tier. Transparent pricing.

Working name. Public demo API is live now with real Playwright renders. Billing for paid plans ships next — no fake testimonials, no fabricated customer counts.

Screenshot

PNG / JPEG / WebP. Viewport or full page. Render receipt with hash for agent audit trails.

PDF

URL to PDF for reports, archives, and agent handoffs.

Extract

Title, meta, main text, links as JSON — readability-first in MVP.

MCP-native

First-class MCP tools so agents call render without custom glue.

Quickstart

Base URL: https://api.agentrenderapi.com · Interactive docs: /docs

Request a free demo key via waitlist (or use key issued by AgentRender). Set it in your environment — do not paste secrets into shared HTML or public posts.

# Load your demo key from env (never hardcode in pages or chats)
export KEY="${KEY:?set KEY to your AgentRender demo API key}"
export BASE=https://api.agentrenderapi.com

# Public health (no key)
curl -s "$BASE/health"

# Extract (Bearer required)
curl -s -X POST "$BASE/v1/extract" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url":"https://example.com"}'

# Screenshot → PNG file
curl -s -X POST "$BASE/v1/screenshot" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url":"https://example.com","format":"png"}' \
  -o shot.png
