# Welcome to Zenrows

> Get started with Zenrows' web data infrastructure, built for AI agents and applications: Fetch, Extract, Batch, and Browser Sessions, available over the API, CLI, MCP, and SDKs.

Zenrows is web data infrastructure built for agents and applications. It gives them reliable access to the live web, including the protected web. That means sites defended by anti-bot systems, rendered dynamically in JavaScript, or built to block ordinary tools.

It's for developers and AI agents alike. It's just as useful for data, product, and GTM teams running web data workflows in production.

A small set of primitives, Fetch, Extract, Batch, and Browser Sessions, handle the actual work of retrieving pages and extracting their data. Use them through whichever surface fits how you build: the API directly, the CLI, MCP, or an SDK.

**Simple by default. Deep when needed.**

## Build with AI

The CLI installs everything an agent needs to use Zenrows on its own: skills, templates, and MCP wiring, configured in one command.

```bash theme={null}
npx -y @zenrows/cli init --all
```
