The baseline is one successfully delivered standard page. JavaScript, premium routing, target surcharges, and extracted-record products are separate jobs and are not used to make an alternative appear cheaper.

The engine ranks only eligible exact quotes. Every alternative keeps its sourced switching reason, public-price state, and verification date.

The condition that decides it

Choose the output unit before choosing a vendor. Bright Data’s Web Unlocker bills successful page requests, while its Web Scraper API bills delivered records under a separate allowance. Apify meters Actor resources such as compute, storage, transfer, proxy traffic, and events, including resources consumed by failed runs. ScraperAPI uses credits whose consumption changes with JavaScript, proxy mode, named targets, screenshots, and stealth. The deciding question is whether the application needs an unlocked page, a delivered record, an Actor run, or a mode-specific request.

Who should stay with Bright Data Web Unlocker

Stay when the job is a standard page request and the team values success-only billing with JavaScript rendering, residential routing, proxy rotation, and CAPTCHA handling included. The public plan also advertises unlimited concurrency. This is the right incumbent when those bundled behaviors match the targets and the application does not actually require Web Scraper API records or a programmable Actor platform.

What the alternatives do not replace

Apify does not turn an Actor’s compute and platform resources into a success-only page request, and ScraperAPI’s credit ladder does not reproduce Bright Data’s included Web Unlocker bundle. Conversely, Bright Data Web Unlocker does not replace Actor code or ScraperAPI’s named target and mode controls. The table prices only the standard successful page. Keep delivered-record work, custom compute, screenshots, stealth, and target-specific request rules outside that verdict.
