Olostep pricing
How Olostep counts successful scrape requests and separate Answer usage, what is not published, and who fits.
Every available option was priced in advance from published vendor rules. Changing a control only switches between those checked options; nothing is sent anywhere and no account is needed.

100,000 pages
Your stated workload. Every vendor on this site is priced against this same number.

Olostep does not bill failed fetches, so failures cost nothing here.

What the meter counts
100,000 requests
One attempt is one billed unit for this workload.

Cash per month
$99.00 /mo
Standard. Cheapest of every eligible purchase option, not the first plan that fits.
Bars share one linear scale across the 3 counted stages, so a multiplier shows as length. Units differ by stage and are labelled. Cash is not on that scale.
100,000 pages divided by 95% success → 100,000 request → Standard $99.00/mo = $0.99 per 1,000 pages kept
Every Olostep plan
| Plan | Monthly | If billed yearly | Prepaid pack | Included | Simultaneous sessions |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $9.00 | n/a | n/a | 5,000 request | 150 |
| Standard your job | $99.00 | n/a | n/a | 200,000 request | 500 |
| Scale | $399.00 | n/a | n/a | 1,000,000 request | n/a |
What consumes a unit
This is where a bill actually grows. One operation is not one billed unit, and the multiplier is published here rather than on the pricing page.
| Operation | Costs | Per | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| request.js_render | 1 credit | request | source |
| request.ai_extraction | 20 credit | request | source |
| request.basic | 0.01 usd | request | source |
What Olostep does not publish
- Scale concurrency is not published in the readable pricing table.
- The exact added model charge for Answers is not published.
- The docs do not state whether Answers credits are additive to an underlying scrape credit.
What Olostep is
Olostep is a developer API for scraping, crawling, mapping, batch processing, web search, AI-generated answers, and monitoring. Its scrape endpoint can return formats such as Markdown, HTML, screenshots, or structured output while the service handles page retrieval. Firecrawl, Nimble, and ScraperAPI are the nearest named comparisons. Olostep is distinguished by putting several web-data operations under one API and including JavaScript rendering and residential IP use in its standard subscription request allowance.

How billing works
For standard subscription scraping, one unit is one successfully completed request. JavaScript rendering and residential IP use are included in that request unit rather than presented as separate public multipliers. The Answers endpoint uses a larger credit charge per request and may also incur underlying model costs. Olostep also documents a separate pay-per-use route through x402. The common buying mistake is to assume that every endpoint consumes the same single-request unit. An Answer is not equivalent to a scrape, and its model component prevents a simple conversion from the scrape allowance.

Who it suits
Olostep suits developer teams that want scrape, crawl, search, and monitoring operations from one API and value a standard request that includes rendering and residential access. It is less suitable for an Answer-heavy workload requiring an exact pre-purchase cost per response, or for procurement that needs every high-volume concurrency and overage figure public. The reason is that standard scrape billing is comparatively direct, while Answer introduces a different credit weight and an unpublished model component.
