Mercury

From IndieWeb


Mercury is a suite of reading related tools featuring an API that takes any web article and returns only the relevant content β€” headline, author, body text, relevant images and more β€” free from clutter and advertising.

Web Parser

Make semantic sense out of any web article. Mercury Parser is a single API endpoint that takes a URL and gives you back the content reliably and easily. It took over the functionality of the Readability API when Readability shut down in late 2016.

AMP Converter

With just one line of code, Mercury AMP prepares your publication for Google AMP. Get lightning-fast load times and boosted search results on mobile.

Mercury Reader

Turn any article into a clean and readable page with one click using the Chrome browser extension.

Open Source

Much of the Mercury suite was open sourced by Postlight in February 2019.
