Adding Manual URL Sources

Paste public URLs, how Skribt fetches and cleans pages, limits, and strong source types.

You can add any public URL as a source by pasting it into the source input field. Skribt fetches the page, strips away navigation, headers, footers, and scripts, then extracts the main text content.

How it works

Skribt sends a request to the URL with a custom user agent
HTML content is parsed and cleaned (scripts, styles, nav, footer removed)
The page title and meta description are extracted for display
Text content is limited to 15,000 characters to keep generation focused
Non-HTML content (PDFs, images) via URL will show an error asking you to upload files instead

What makes a good URL source

Research reports with original data
Official documentation or press releases
Industry publications with expert analysis
Company pages with facts you want to reference
