ScreenshotAPI
Website screenshots, URL/HTML to PDF, scrolling videos, and web scraping via ScreenshotAPI.
What it does
ScreenshotAPI is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is installed locally as a package and runs on your machine.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to 2 capabilities: document understanding and web scraping. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as extract website data or collect data behind logins.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence). None of this is a test of the tool.
