Firecrawl
A crawl-and-scrape API billed from a monthly credit balance, where scrape, crawl, map and monitor each cost one credit per page.
Plan prices
Not published here. Firecrawl sells monthly tiers with a credit allowance rather than a bandwidth ladder, and its tier names cannot be read reliably from the page — they come back joined to the button beside them. We would rather show nothing than a plan named wrongly at a price that is right.
What is above is what we can state: the unit the plan is billed in, and what one unit of work costs. Those are the numbers that decide the bill on a per-request product.
Nothing yet, we'll log every price and policy move we spot.
Whose network is underneath
Not established
A scraping API is a storefront over somebody’s proxy pool. This one does not say whose. We looked twice: through its pricing, about and FAQ pages, and then through the places a supplier has to be named for data-protection reasons — subprocessor, trust, security and privacy pages. Neither names a network. That is not the same as there being no upstream.
It matters because ethics do not stop at the vendor boundary. In July 2026 the FBI seized a residential proxy platform built on roughly two million consumer devices enrolled with little or no meaningful consent, and that network was resold under other brands. A clean storefront can sit on top of one.
