A Jina Reader alternative that charges $0.001 per page — not per month
If your agent reads pages one at a time, a monthly plan charges you for the pages you never fetch. ScriptMasterLabs URL-to-Markdown charges for the page in front of it: $0.001 USDC per page, paid per accepted call over x402. No account. No API key. No subscription.

ScriptMasterLabs URL-to-Markdown costs $0.001 USDC per page.
Payment is USDC on the Base network, settled per accepted call over x402.
No account and no API key are required. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum.
Jina Reader is used through an API key, with usage billed on its own token-based terms.
A payment challenge is a quote, not a charge: you pay only when the call is accepted, and the response carries verifiable payment evidence.

Jina Reader converts pages through a key-based API. ScriptMasterLabs makes a different trade: no key to issue, store, or leak, and a flat per-page price an agent can budget exactly — $0.001 per page, stated in the 402 challenge before any money moves.
Questions
What does ScriptMasterLabs charge to read one page?
$0.001 USDC per page, paid per accepted call over x402 on Base. No account, no API key, no subscription.
How is that different from Jina Reader?
Jina Reader is accessed with an API key and billed on token-based terms, so the cost of a page depends on its length. ScriptMasterLabs charges a flat $0.001 per page and needs no key at all.
Does my agent need an account or API key?
No. The agent calls the endpoint, receives a 402 price challenge, pays in USDC on Base, and the call completes with verifiable payment evidence.
