Welcome to Ilmenite

Ilmenite is a pure Rust headless browser engine built for AI agents, scrapers, and data pipelines. One binary. Sub-millisecond startup. 100× less memory than Chrome.

What can you build?

Ilmenite exposes five core primitives as a REST API, SDKs, and an MCP server:

• Scrape — turn any URL into clean markdown, JSON, or HTML.
• Crawl — give a URL, get every reachable page.
• Extract — pass a JSON schema, get structured data.
• Screenshot — PNG or PDF captures.
• Search — query the web and return clean results.

Your first request

Sign up for a free API key and run your first scrape with curl:

curl -X POST https://api.ilmenite.dev/v1/scrape \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ILMENITE_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"url": "https://example.com"}'
