Microlink
The web, ready for AI
Microlink is a single API that turns any URL into data, built for applications and AI agents and powered by real browsers. It addresses the need to fetch, render, and extract information from web pages without operating browser infrastructure, handling requests at scale through an HTTP interface.
The platform provides screenshot, PDF, metadata, Markdown, HTML, text, logo, and media extraction, alongside structured scraping with CSS selectors, technology detection, Lighthouse reports, search, and JavaScript execution against live pages. Browser automation supports clicks, scrolling, typing, and device emulation, while adblock and cookie banner removal, request isolation, and SSRF protection run by default. Pro capabilities include configurable caching, custom HTTP headers, automatic proxy resolution, and antibot detection. An official SDK exposes these products as semantic methods for Node.js, browsers, and Deno, with a CLI included.
Microlink is aimed at developers, engineers, and teams building apps or agents that need web data. It is packaged with a free plan requiring no card, a Pro plan for production workloads, and Business and Enterprise editions with custom quotas, dedicated infrastructure, and contractual terms. Pricing is usage-based by request volume, with no seat-based model.
