n8n + ApexApi
How to Summarize Any Website with AI in n8n
Point this workflow at a URL and get a clean, model-ready summary in seconds. The ApexApi Context node fetches the page as markdown — handling anti-bot walls automatically — and a chat model condenses it to a few bullets. One API key covers both the fetch and the AI.
What you'll build
- •Scrape any page to clean markdown, no CSS selectors or parsing
- •Automatic anti-bot handling for sites that block scrapers
- •An AI summary of the page in the next node
- •You only pay for pages that succeed — failed fetches are free

FAQ
Do I need a separate scraping service?
No. The ApexApi Context node does the scraping and the same key powers the AI summary — one account, one bill.
Will it work on sites that block bots?
Set Anti-Bot Handling to Auto and hardened sites (Cloudflare, etc.) are unlocked automatically.
What does it cost?
Standard pages are $0.002 each; a page that needs anti-bot unlocking is $0.008. Failed fetches cost nothing.
