About Microlink.io

Microlink.io provides an API that converts any URL into structured data, including screenshots, PDFs, metadata, markdown, HTML, and clean extracted text. The API runs real browsers behind the scenes, handling rendering, caching, and scaling, and also offers link previews, embeddable cards, technology detection, a search API that turns Google results into structured data, logo/favicon retrieval, video and audio asset extraction, file conversion (PDF, XLSX, DOCX, PPTX into HTML, markdown, or text), Lighthouse performance audits, and browser automation for custom scripted actions on pages.

The product is aimed at developers building applications, agents, and AI systems that need programmatic access to web content and page data rather than manual scraping. It ships an official SDK with support for TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, and Go, along with a CLI, browser extensions, an MCP integration for giving AI systems access to the API, and a component builder. Additional tools built on the API include a website screenshot tool, a social sharing debugger, website-to-PDF and URL-to-markdown converters, full-page and bulk screenshot capture, and bulk URL-to-PDF conversion.
