Averra Extract MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Averra Extract — lets AI agents like Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT convert any webpage into clean, LLM-ready Markdown.

Listed in the official MCP registry as dev.averra/extract. MCP clients that support registry-based install can reference that identifier directly; for clients that need manual configuration, see the install sections below.

What it does

Exposes the Averra Extract API as 5 MCP tools:

| Tool | Description | |---|---| | averra_extract_url | Convert any URL to clean Markdown with metadata | | averra_check_usage | Check monthly quota and remaining requests | | averra_create_api_key | Create a new API key | | averra_list_api_keys | List all API keys on the account | | averra_revoke_api_key | Revoke an API key by ID |

Get an API key

Sign up at averra.dev — the free plan includes 50 requests/month.
