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.
