Web Speed
A shared web-map registry for AI agents
Last verified:
What is Web Speed?
Web Speed is the deterministic adaptation layer for autonomous AI agents that translates any website into high-fidelity, token-efficient machine maps. The tool converts messy DOM structures into precise JSON blueprints optimized purely for LLM consumption, stripping 85%+ of raw HTML noise and reducing context windows by 90%. This enables AI agents to navigate the web faster and more reliably while cutting token costs by 70-90%.
Key features include deterministic structural blueprints that instantly map page structures into clean JSON-ready schemas, local browser execution for secure post-authentication tasks where passwords stay in your keychain, universal extraction that handles any site dynamically generating LLM-ready maps on the fly, and native Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration connecting Claude Desktop, Gemini CLI, or any MCP-compatible client. The tool handles infinite scrolls, shadow DOMs, and dynamic React/Next.js hydration while bypassing bot mitigation and enterprise workspace barriers.
Web Speed is designed for developers and teams building production AI agents, AI infrastructure engineers optimizing web-based tasks, teams running high-volume web automation, and anyone seeking to reduce token costs while improving agent reliability. It integrates directly with MCP-compatible environments and is enterprise-ready with SDK access on GitHub.

Frequently asked questions about Web Speed
What is Web Speed and what does it do?
Web Speed is the deterministic adaptation layer for autonomous AI that translates messy DOM structures into precise machine protocols. It converts any website into high-fidelity, token-efficient machine maps for AI agents, stripping 85%+ of raw HTML noise and reducing context windows by 90% while cutting token costs by 70-90%.
How does Web Speed save tokens compared to raw HTML?
Web Speed uses Deterministic Structural Blueprints that instantly map page structure into clean JSON-ready schemas optimized for LLM consumption. A standard webpage loads 50k-200k characters of raw DOM (180,000 tokens), while Web Speed Protocol delivers only 4,200 tokens, achieving 97.8% reduction in some cases like e-commerce platforms.
Does Web Speed handle authenticated/login-required pages?
Yes, Web Speed supports secure post-auth execution. The Native MCP integration uses a local browser bridge where user passwords remain in local keychains with zero proxy exposure. The agent can store credentials, navigate to logged-in pages, and extract data behind user logins while credentials never leave your machine.
What browsers does Web Speed support?
Web Speed uses Playwright browser for local execution, which supports Chromium. You must run 'playwright install chromium' after installing the web-speed-agent package. The browser runs on your actual machine, not on a cloud server.
How do I integrate Web Speed with Claude Desktop?
Web Speed ships with a native Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Start the MCP server by running 'WEBSPEED_API_KEY=wsp_... python3 agent_mcp_server.py', then add the server configuration to Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json file pointing to the agent_mcp_server.py script with your API key as an environment variable.
What page types does Web Speed auto-detect?
Web Speed returns page-type-aware structured data and auto-detects four page types: article (with title, author, published_date, sections, links), product (with name, price, availability, rating, specs), listing (search results or category pages with items containing title, url, price), and other for pages that don't match these categories.
Does Web Speed work with dynamic single-page apps?
Yes, Web Speed handles dynamic React/Next.js hydration, infinite scrolls, and shadow DOMs. It includes JS rendering for heavy SPAs and waits for hydration to capture single-page apps and dynamic content reliably by executing site JavaScript.
What security measures protect my credentials?
Credentials are stored in your system keychain (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, Linux secret-tool) and never sent to Web Speed servers. When calling agent.extract(html), only page HTML is sent over HTTPS to the API. Browser cookies and sessions never leave your machine via local Playwright.
Can I bypass bot mitigation with Web Speed?
Yes, Web Speed successfully bypasses Tier-1 bot mitigation using browser-based agent tools. In benchmarks, it retrieved availability from high-security e-commerce platforms while extracting product data and maintaining a clean structured map, where traditional scrapers were blocked.
How do I get started with Web Speed SDK?
Install by running 'pip install web-speed-agent' and 'playwright install chromium'. Get an API key at getwebspeed.io and set it as 'wsp_...' in the Agent constructor or as WEBSPEED_API_KEY environment variable. For public pages use agent.map(url), and for authenticated pages use agent.browser(session_name) with stored credentials.
