# Full page analysis
data = client.analyze("https://stripe.com")
print(data["page_type"])    # "product landing page"
print(data["primary_cta"])  # "Start now"
print(data["technologies"]) # ["React", "Next.js", "Cloudflare"]

# URL → PDF
pdf = client.pdf("https://github.com", format="A4")
open("page.pdf", "wb").write(pdf)

# HTML → image (OG cards, email previews)
html = '<div style="background:#0d0d0f;color:#fff;padding:80px;font-size:48px">My OG Card</div>'
img = client.render(html, width=1200, height=630)
open("og-card.png", "wb").write(img)
