Retrieve full page contents via Exa's AI-powered content retrieval, settled over MPP/Tempo.
What it does
This endpoint is part of the Exa suite hosted on Tempo's MPP (Micropayment Protocol) infrastructure. Exa is an AI-powered web search and content retrieval platform, and this specific endpoint (/contents) is designed to return the full page contents for given URLs or search result IDs.
However, during probing the endpoint returned 404 on both HEAD and GET requests, and all crawled pages on the origin (root, /docs, /api, /pricing, /README) also returned "Not Found." This means the endpoint is currently not responding with a valid MPP 402 challenge or any content. It is unclear whether the endpoint has been moved, is temporarily down, or has been decommissioned. No OpenAPI schema, pricing information, documentation, or usage examples could be retrieved.
Based on the existing listing metadata, this endpoint is intended to provide page content extraction — likely accepting URLs or Exa document IDs and returning cleaned text or structured content. The settlement method is expected to be Tempo (pathUSD on Tempo L2), consistent with other MPP endpoints on the tempo.xyz domain. Without a live 402 challenge, pricing and exact request/response formats cannot be confirmed.
Capabilities
Use cases
- —Extracting clean text content from web pages for LLM ingestion
- —Retrieving full article or document bodies from Exa search results
- —Building RAG pipelines that need page-level content from URLs
- —Augmenting AI agent workflows with real-time web page data
Fit
Best for
- —AI agents needing structured page content from URLs
- —RAG and retrieval-augmented generation pipelines
- —Developers integrating Exa search results with content fetching
Not for
- —Users needing a live, currently operational endpoint (endpoint returned 404 at time of probe)
- —Large-scale web crawling without per-request micropayment budget
Quick start
# Endpoint is currently returning 404. When live, expected usage:
curl -X POST https://exa.mpp.tempo.xyz/contents \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"ids": ["exa-doc-id-here"]}'Endpoint
Quality
The endpoint returned 404 on all probe methods and every crawled page returned Not Found. No schema, pricing, documentation, or live MPP challenge was captured. The listing is effectively a stub based solely on the existing title and description.
Warnings
- —Endpoint returned 404 on both HEAD and GET — no MPP 402 challenge was received, so the endpoint appears offline or relocated.
- —All crawled pages on the origin domain (root, /docs, /api, /pricing, /README) returned Not Found.
- —No pricing, schema, or documentation could be retrieved — all details are inferred from the existing listing metadata.
- —Endpoint may have been decommissioned or moved to a different URL.
