Article extractors compared: URL to clean text and Markdown for LLMs

If you already have the article links or RSS feeds and want clean text plus Markdown, authors, dates and a paywall flag at $0.001 per article (failures free), use Inkpluck. If you want a tool to crawl a whole news site and find the articles for you, Smart Article Extractor does that and has no Actor fee; you pay only compute.

The options

Where the alternatives are better

  • Smart Article Extractor: Crawls entire sites and detects which pages are articles, with no per-article Actor fee.
  • easyapi Article Content Extractor: Returns description and structured metadata fields in one JSON per page.

Choose inkpluck-article-extract if

  • you feed an LLM or RAG pipeline and want Markdown out
  • you already have links or RSS feeds
  • you want failures to cost nothing at a flat price

Choose Smart Article Extractor if

  • you want it to crawl a whole news or blog site and find the articles itself

Choose easyapi Article Content Extractor if

  • you already use that developer's other Actors and want the same JSON shape
