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:

ToolDescription
averra_extract_urlConvert any URL to clean Markdown with metadata
averra_check_usageCheck monthly quota and remaining requests
averra_create_api_keyCreate a new API key
averra_list_api_keysList all API keys on the account
averra_revoke_api_keyRevoke an API key by ID

Get an API key

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