Expand Fetch launches as a web scraping API for agents
Expand launched a scraping and crawling API with a vision model, Iris, and a structured JSON model, X-Ray, plus source-linked provenance, claiming 74% accuracy on a 1,094-question benchmark at $1 per 1,000 fetches.
Introducing Expand Fetch, a new way to scrape and crawl the web. Your agent has never seen the web. No wonder it gets basic questions wrong. Traditional Markdown APIs lose critical details. So we trained two System one models to change that: Iris, a vision model that sees pages like you do, preserving tables, icons, and layouts. X-Ray, a JSON model that uncovers the hidden data behind every page. Every fetch also comes with a Wayback Machine. Every line links back to its source, so you can verify exactly what your agent saw. Three products. One API. On our benchmark of 1,094 questions across 326 challenging web pages, agents using Expand got 74% right. The next best API got 55%. Available today at $1 per 1,000 fetches.
