Webcrawler API

WebcrawlerAPI is a web and API-based crawling and extraction service for developers and AI teams that need docs sites, help centers, and websites converted into clean Markdown for AI support agents.

Key capabilities include:

• Website crawling to Markdown that removes clutter such as menus, cookie banners, footers, and ads, returning content ready for indexing or prompting
• Dynamic-page support with automatic JavaScript rendering, CAPTCHA solving, retries, rate-limit handling, and proxy management (including residential options)
• Specialized scraping endpoints for common data sources, including URL to Markdown, webpage metadata, Google Autocomplete, Google Search (SERP), Google Maps, TikTok profiles, Instagram profile posts, Crunchbase company extraction, and an AI scraper
• Caching and change detection via feeds to capture only updated pages and reduce repeat fetching

Pricing: Free trial credit ($10 on sign-up) plus pay-as-you-go billed per successful request (examples include about $2 per 1,000 pages for website crawl/URL to Markdown, $3 per 1,000 for Google and social sources, $5 per 1,000 for AI and Crunchbase), with Standard ($99/month) and Scale ($499/month) plans listed, and enterprise pricing available.

Notable for its focus on AI-agent-ready Markdown, plus production-oriented crawling infrastructure that handles rendering, CAPTCHAs, and proxies automatically. It is also listed on G2, FitGap, and SourceForge for comparisons and reviews.
