LAWP gives AI agents a structured JSON map of websites, enabling them to search, compare, book, and buy through typed actions instead of scraping raw HTML.
Generate and read PDFs for AI agents: a generatepdf tool (HTML, a URL, or a template + JSON → PDF) and a readpdf tool (a PDF → text/markdown). Run locally with npx @docweave/mcp or use the hosted streamable-HTTP endpoint. Chromium-rendered, priced per document.
