Who should stay with Context.dev

Stay when your targets mix plain and protected pages: a standard scrape is 1 credit with JavaScript rendering, anti-bot bypass and proxies included, so a protected page costs what a plain one does; on Scrape.do or ScrapingDog it costs ten times a plain page. Stay too if one balance for scraping, crawling, search and JSON extraction saves you a second vendor, or if your monthly volume sits just inside a plan, since the top-up blocks are priced per plan. (Context.dev pricing, checked Oct 12, 2026.)

What a switch must replace

A cheaper API for plain pages may charge 5 to 25 times its plain rate for rendered or protected ones, so compare at the mix your targets need, not at the plain-page price. A switch must also replace any search, crawl or brand endpoints you call, and Context.dev bills a 404 at the base price where some alternatives do not. Context.dev publishes no rollover rule, so unused credits are not a saving to count. (Context.dev pricing, checked Oct 12, 2026.)
