enconvert 0.0.2

Enconvert SDK — read any page or file into agent-ready Markdown/JSON/screenshots, every read scored. V2 perception + file conversion.

enconvert (Python)

Honest eyes for your AI agent — the Python SDK for Enconvert. Python 3.9+.

Read any web page or file into clean Markdown, JSON, or screenshots, and get a render_quality score (0.0–1.0) on every read — so a blocked, challenge, or empty-SPA page comes back flagged with a low score and warnings, never mistaken for real content. Perceive, discover, look up, distill, ingest, and watch the web; convert 40+ file and document formats through the same key.

Wiring an agent (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, n8n, …)? The MCP server is the native path — npx @enconvert/mcp setup. This SDK is the programmatic REST path for everything else.

Install

pip install enconvert

Quick Start

from enconvert import Enconvert

client = Enconvert(api_key="sk_...")

# Read a page the way your agent should — with a quality score attached.
op = client.v2.perceive("https://example.com", outputs=["markdown", "structured"])
print(op.outputs["markdown"].url, op.render_quality)  # e.g. 0.93

---

V2 — agent-ready data (client.v2)

The V2 namespace turns web pages into agent-ready data: render, search, extract, ingest, and monitor. All V2 endpoints require a private API key and are plan-gated — a disabled feature or exhausted monthly quota raises QuotaError (HTTP 402).

Every render carries render_quality (0.0–1.0). A low score means the page didn't render cleanly (challenge page, cookie wall, empty shell); the content is still returned, flagged, so a bad read never quietly enters your agent's context.

Perceive — render a URL into artifacts

op = client.v2.perceive(
    "https://example.com",
    outputs=["markdown", "screenshot", "structured"],
    extract=["tables", "metadata"],
)
print(op.render_quality)            # honesty score, 0.0-1.0
print(op.outputs["markdown"].url)   # 15-min signed URL
print(op.structured)

# Re-sign artifact URLs later:
again = client.v2.get_perceive_operation(op.operation_id)

# Batch (<=1000 URLs; small batches run inline, larger return "queued" — poll):
batch = client.v2.perceive_batch(
    ["https://a.com", "https://b.com"],
    outputs=["markdown"],
    output_mode="zip",
)
done = client.v2.get_perceive_batch(batch.job_id)

Discover — enumerate a site's URLs (no rendering)

found = client.v2.discover(
    "https://example.com",
    mode="hybrid",              # "sitemap" | "crawl" | "hybrid"
    max_urls=200,
    exclude_patterns=["/tag/"],
)
print(found.total, found.urls)

Lookup — web search with optional auto-perceive

search = client.v2.lookup(
    "best static site generators",
    category="web",             # web | news | images | scholar | patents | maps
    num_results=10,
    perceive_top=3,              # auto-render top 3 results (uses perceive quota)
)
for hit in search.results:
    print(hit.title, hit.url, hit.perceive.render_quality if hit.perceive else None)

Distill — schema-driven structured extraction

from enconvert import CssField, CssSchema, DistillDiscoverFrom

extraction = client.v2.distill(
    urls=["https://example.com/pricing"],
    schema={"plans": "list of plan names with monthly prices"},
    css_schema=CssSchema(               # optional free CSS pass before the LLM tier
        base_selector=".plan-card",
        fields=[
            CssField(name="name", type="text", selector="h3"),
            CssField(name="price", type="text", selector=".price"),
        ],
    ),
)
print(extraction.results[0].data, extraction.results[0].extraction_tier)

# Or discover-then-distill:
client.v2.distill(
    discover_from=DistillDiscoverFrom(url="https://example.com", mode="sitemap", max_pages=10),
    schema={"title": "page title", "summary": "one-line summary"},
)

Ingest — site or files to RAG-ready JSONL (always async)

Turn a whole site — or a set of uploaded documents — into chunked, RAG-ready JSONL through one pipeline.

from enconvert import IngestChunkOptions

# From a site:
job = client.v2.ingest(
    mode="sitemap",
    url="https://docs.example.com",
    max_pages=100,
    chunk=IngestChunkOptions(max_words=512, sentence_overlap=1),
    webhook_url="https://my.app/hooks/enconvert",
)

# Or from uploaded files (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, CSV, HTML, EPUB, TXT/MD, legacy/ODF office):
file_job = client.v2.ingest_files(
    ["handbook.pdf", "notes.docx"],
    chunk=IngestChunkOptions(max_words=512, sentence_overlap=1),
)

status = client.v2.get_ingest_job(job.job_id)   # poll
if status.status == "completed":
    print(status.output_url)  # JSONL

client.v2.list_ingest_jobs(limit=20)
client.v2.cancel_ingest_job(job.job_id)         # idempotent

# Webhook signing (HMAC):
secret = client.v2.get_webhook_secret()
print(secret.secret, secret.signature_header)
client.v2.rotate_webhook_secret()               # invalidates old secret
client.v2.retry_ingest_webhook(job.job_id)      # re-deliver

Watch — recurring change monitoring

watcher = client.v2.create_watcher(
    "https://example.com/pricing",
    frequency_minutes=60,        # hourly floor
    diff_mode="auto",            # auto | text | structured | tables | metadata
    webhook_url="https://my.app/hooks/changes",
    notify_email=True,
)

client.v2.list_watchers()
client.v2.get_watcher(watcher.watcher_id)
client.v2.get_watcher_snapshots(watcher.watcher_id, limit=10)
client.v2.update_watcher(watcher.watcher_id, status="paused")
client.v2.update_watcher(watcher.watcher_id, webhook_url="")  # clears webhook
client.v2.delete_watcher(watcher.watcher_id)  # soft-delete, idempotent

V2 error handling

from enconvert import QuotaError

try:
    client.v2.ingest(mode="sitemap", url="https://example.com")
except QuotaError:
    print("Upgrade plan or wait for quota reset")

File conversion

The same key also converts 40+ formats. Two "anything → X" endpoints auto-detect the input; the format-specific methods below give you a validated, typed path.

Anything to Markdown / PDF

# Any document -> clean Markdown (a RAG-ingestion building block):
client.convert_to_markdown("report.docx", save_to="report.md")
# PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, CSV, HTML, EPUB, TXT/MD, and legacy/ODF office. (Images not supported.)

# Almost anything -> PDF:
client.convert_to_pdf("slides.pptx", save_to="slides.pdf")
# office/ODF/Pages/Numbers/RTF/CSV, HTML, Markdown, text, images, SVG, EPUB, or a PDF passthrough.

# Only pdf_options.grayscale is honored on this endpoint:
from enconvert import PdfOptions

client.convert_to_pdf("scan.pdf", pdf_options=PdfOptions(grayscale=True), save_to="gray.pdf")

Image Conversion

result = client.convert_image(
    "photo.heic",
    output_format="webp",
    save_to="photo.webp",
)

Any pair among jpeg, png, svg, heic, webp — plus PDF rasterization:

client.convert_image("scan.pdf", output_format="jpeg", save_to="scan.jpeg")

Document Conversion

client.convert_document("report.docx", save_to="report.pdf")
client.convert_document("data.json", output_format="yaml", save_to="data.yaml")
client.convert_document("notes.md", output_format="html", save_to="notes.html")

Supported inputs: doc/docx, xls/xlsx, ppt/pptx, odt, ods, odp, ots, pages, numbers, html, markdown, csv, json, xml, yaml, toml. (EPUB → use convert_to_pdf / convert_to_markdown.)

The SDK validates every {input}-to-{output} pair against the conversions the API actually implements and raises immediately — with the list of valid outputs for that input — instead of sending a doomed request. Introspect programmatically:

from enconvert import IMPLEMENTED_CONVERSIONS, valid_outputs_for

valid_outputs_for("json")  # ["csv", "toml", "xml", "yaml"]
valid_outputs_for("pdf")   # ["jpeg"]

Supported conversions

Input	Outputs
json	csv, toml, xml, yaml
xml	csv, json
yaml	json
csv	json, xml
toml	json
markdown	html, pdf
html	pdf
doc, excel, ppt, odt, ods, odp, ots, pages, numbers	pdf
jpeg, png, svg, heic, webp	each other (all 20 pairs)
pdf	jpeg

URL to PDF / Screenshot / Markdown

client.convert_url_to_pdf("https://example.com", save_to="page.pdf")
client.convert_url_to_screenshot("https://example.com", viewport_width=1440, save_to="shot.png")
client.convert_url_to_markdown("https://example.com/article", save_to="article.md")

Extract clean GitHub-Flavored Markdown from any URL — strips nav/footer/ads/scripts, keeps the main article content, and adds YAML frontmatter (title, description, url, links, images).

Website to PDF / Screenshot (whole-site batch)

Discover every page of a website (via sitemap, or full crawl on higher plans), convert each one in the background, and receive a single ZIP. Requires a private API key with crawl access.

batch = client.convert_website_to_pdf(
    "https://example.com",
    crawl_mode="sitemap",             # "auto" (default) | "sitemap" | "full"
    exclude_patterns=["/blog/tag/"],  # full crawl mode only
)
print(batch.batch_id, batch.url_count, batch.discovery_method)

# Block until done and save the ZIP:
status = client.wait_for_batch(batch.batch_id, save_to="site.zip")
print(status.completed, "of", status.total, "pages converted")

# Or poll yourself:
s = client.get_batch_status(batch.batch_id)
if s.status != "processing":
    print(s.zip_download_url)

convert_website_to_screenshot works the same way and produces a ZIP of PNGs.

PDF options & authenticated pages

from enconvert import BrowserCookie, HttpBasicAuth, PdfHeaderFooter, PdfMargins, PdfOptions

client.convert_url_to_pdf(
    "https://internal.example.com/report",
    pdf_options=PdfOptions(
        page_size="A4",              # or custom dimensions via page_width + page_height
        orientation="landscape",
        margins=PdfMargins(top=10, bottom=10, left=15, right=15),
        header=PdfHeaderFooter(content="Quarterly Report", height=15),
        footer=PdfHeaderFooter(content="Confidential", height=12),
    ),
    auth=HttpBasicAuth(username="user", password="pass"),     # or cookies / headers, plan-gated
    cookies=[BrowserCookie(name="session", value="abc123", domain="internal.example.com")],
    headers={"X-Tenant": "acme"},
    save_to="report.pdf",
)

Do not combine auth with an Authorization header — the API rejects the conflict.

Job status (async polling)

status = client.get_job_status("job_abc123")
if status.status == "success":
    print(status.presigned_url)

    print("Too many requests — slow down")
except APIError as e:
    print(f"API error [{e.status_code}]: {e.message}")
