How to Use the WebScrapingAPI MCP in Pydantic AI
WebScrapingAPI with Pydantic AI: Guarantee accurate, typed data from any scraped source.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect WebScrapingAPI MCP to Pydantic AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect WebScrapingAPI to Pydantic AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Extract structured product details using MCP Server
The `scrape_ecommerce_product` tool returns price, title, and reviews as clean JSON. When your agent uses this via Pydantic AI, every piece of data is validated against a strict schema at runtime. You won't get unexpected fields. This guarantees data correctness before the model even sees it. If the API messes up, your agent fails loudly—you know exactly what went wrong.
Capture full page content with Pydantic AI
For sites that rely on JavaScript rendering, use `scrape_js_rendered`. This slower method captures the full state of a site, and then Pydantic validates the resulting HTML structure against your defined model. It's reliable. If you just need raw source code for speed, `scrape_static_html` pulls out the basic HTML, which is still typed and validated by your agent.
Execute advanced scraping tasks with MCP Server
The `custom_api_scrape` tool lets you run scrapes using custom parameters for country, session management, and wait times. Your Pydantic AI setup ensures that even these complex scraped operations yield data matching your expected Python types. It's about making the output reliable, no matter how complicated the input site is.
