# Documentation

anymd converts anything on the internet to clean Markdown. Put `anymd.cc/` in front of a link and you get the content back: no nav bars, no cookie banners, no scripts. Just text your model can use, with YAML frontmatter on top.

```bash
curl https://anymd.cc/stephango.com/saw
```

That's the whole trick. Everything else in these docs is about doing it at scale, from code, from your terminal, or from inside an agent.

## Core ideas

- **The URL is the API.** `https://anymd.cc/<any-url>` returns Markdown. No key needed for light use (50 conversions a day per IP).
- **One engine, every channel.** The URL API, REST, CLI, MCP and WebMCP all run the same conversion pipeline, so output is identical wherever you call it from.
- **Credits, not seats.** A web page costs 1 credit; heavier sources cost more. Searching your library and re-serving cached results are free. See [Billing & credits](/docs/billing).
- **Your library remembers.** Sign in (or send an API key) and every conversion is saved to a private, searchable library with BM25, full-text and semantic search.
- **Scoped access.** Every API key and OAuth grant carries scopes, capped by its owner's role. See [API keys & roles](/docs/api-keys-roles).

## These docs are Markdown too

Every page on anymd.cc has a Markdown twin. Append `.md` to the path (`/docs/api.md`, `/pricing.md`) or send `Accept: text/markdown`. Point your agent at them directly.

The machine-readable API spec lives at [`/api/v1/openapi.json`](/api/v1/openapi.json), with an interactive reference at [`/docs/api/reference`](/docs/api/reference).
