What it means
Full-text extraction pulls the complete readable content of a web page, usually as clean text or Markdown.

Extraction quality varies with the page, especially for pages built mostly with scripts.
Extraction costs more than a snippet because it reads every line of the page. Some APIs bundle it into the search call, while others bill it as a separate page fee.
