Metalift scrape
Metalift scrape: URL → LLM-ready markdown with WAF/retail escalation, JS render, and residential proxy when needed. Use instead of a plain HTTP fetch when Cloudflare, bot checks, or SPAs block cheap scrapers. Also works for static pages (pay only for the path used). (5 credits ≈ $0.005 USDC)
