Summary

Browser Rendering has launched a new /crawl endpoint in open beta that allows developers to crawl entire websites with a single API call. The service automatically discovers pages from a starting URL, renders them in a headless browser, and returns content in multiple formats including HTML, Markdown, and structured JSON. The crawler respects robots.txt and AI Crawl Control by default, making it compliant with website rules and reducing the likelihood of being blocked.
