ScrapingAnt

What is ScrapingAnt?

ScrapingAnt is a web data infrastructure platform — a single API that gives you headless Chrome rendering, 3M+ rotating proxies, parallel concurrency, and AI-powered extraction. We handle the messy parts (CAPTCHA avoidance, IP rotation, anti-bot fingerprinting) so your code stays clean.

What is an API credit?

Each subscription includes a monthly pool of API credits. Most requests cost between 1 and 25 credits depending on the options you enable (proxy type, JavaScript rendering, etc.). The default request — Chrome rendering with standard proxies — costs 10 credits.

I'm not a developer — can you build a scraper for me?

Yes. We regularly build custom scraping pipelines for clients who'd rather buy than build. We also partner with development agencies, so projects of any size are covered.

Do I need a credit card to start the free trial?

No. The free plan includes 10,000 API credits every month with no credit card required. You only enter payment details if you upgrade.

How does the MCP server work?

One install command in Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf adds three tools your agent can call: get_web_page_html, get_web_page_markdown, and get_web_page_text. The agent uses your ScrapingAnt API credits, so the same plan covers both direct API calls and MCP usage.
