Jina AI / Read a web page as markdown

Jina Reader API tool jina-reader on looot: input fields, $0.0002 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Fetches one URL and returns its main content as markdown text. Send url. Returns data.content with data.title, description, url, metadata, external links and usage.tokens.

Tool id: jina-reader
Provider: Jina Reader API
Job: Scrape a web page into markdown (web.scrape.markdown)
Price: $0.0002 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name	Type	Required	Description
`injectPageScript`	string	no	Preprocessing JS to run on the page (inline string or remote URL).
`url`	string	yes	The URL to read. Example: “https://www.example.com”
`viewport`	object	no	Browser viewport dimensions for responsive rendering.
`accept`	string	no	Must be application/json – forces the gateway to send Accept: application/json so Jina returns structured JSON instead of markdown.

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 8 real answers:

{ code, data: { url, title, usage: { tokens, outputTokens, scaledTokens, measuredTokens }, content, warning, external: { icon: { ... }, preload: { ... }, alternate: { ... }, canonical: { ... }, preconnect: { ... }, dns-prefetch: { ... }, apple-touch-icon: { ... } }, metadata: { lang, og:url, og:type, og:image, og:title, viewport, description, twitter:card, twitter:site, twitter:image, twitter:title, og:description, next-head-count, request-country, experiment-token, format-detection, twitter:description, experiment-treatments, google-site-verification: string[], edge-experiment-treatments, fac... ...

The shape is cut here. Signed in, looot inspect jina-reader prints all of it.

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"jina-reader","input":{"url":"https://www.example.com"},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "jina-reader",
    input: {
      url: "https://www.example.com",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);

import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "jina-reader",
        "input": {
            "url": "https://www.example.com",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:web.scrape.markdown as endpointId; see the job page.
