Built by AshlrAI.
webfetch is one product inside AshlrAI, a small studio founded by Mason Wyatt that builds developer infrastructure for the AI agent era. We ship small, opinionated tools that solve real problems we hit while building agent-native software — and we keep them sharp.
Mason Wyatt
Mason is an engineer working on agent-native developer infra. AshlrAI started as a studio to factor out the reusable layers that kept showing up across his projects: licensed content sourcing, secrets handling for agents, and a coding CLI that could fluidly swap model providers. Each one became its own product.
What AshlrAI ships
One API, CLI, and MCP federating 24 licensed image providers with attribution baked in and a browser fallback when APIs miss.
A secrets manager that keeps API keys out of agent context windows. End-to-end encrypted, local-first, with optional cloud sync.
A terminal coding agent that speaks to Anthropic, OpenAI, and local models through one interface. Bring your own keys.
Why webfetch?
webfetch was born inside another AshlrAI project — an artist encyclopedia factory that needed licensed, attributed images for thousands of musicians. Every commercial image API we tried solved one narrow slice: Unsplash had aesthetics but not artists, Google Images had reach but no license signal, Wikimedia had provenance but patchy coverage.
Stitching them together became a real system: a federated router, a license ranker, a confidence score, attribution normalization, and a human-like browser fallback for the long tail. When we realized other teams were rebuilding the same plumbing for their own agents, we factored it out.
That's webfetch. License-first, attribution-always, agent-ready by default.
