Every Stekpad call is one of these.
Each verb has its own page. Click through for parameters, errors, and copy-paste examples.

map1 / 1k URLsDiscover URLs without rendering pages. Walks sitemaps and robots in seconds.
extract5 / URLPass a JSON Schema, get validated structured fields. Sync for one URL, async for batches.
search5 + 1 / resultRun a web search and scrape every result in the same call. Built for AI agents.
