Cash per month
$149.00 /mo
Startup: the cheapest way to buy this volume, not just the first plan big enough.
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 → 1,000,000 credits → Startup $149.00/mo = $1.49 per 1,000 pages kept
What makes it cost more

| Amazon pages | 5 credits | request | source |

| Bing pages | 25 credits | request | source |
| Linkedin pages | 30 credits | request | source |
| Premium proxies | 10 credits | request | source |
| JavaScript rendering | 10 credits | request | source |
| A screenshot | 10 credits | request | source |
| Stealth mode for the hardest sites | 30 credits | request | source |

Limits and terms
What ScraperAPI publishes beyond the price: the limits a job runs into and the terms that change what a plan is worth. Each line links the page it comes from and the day it was read.
Speed, concurrency and sessions
- Requests above the concurrency limit receive HTTP 429 and are not queued. source, read Jul 26, 2026

What ScraperAPI does not publish
- ScraperAPI doesn't publish a pay-as-you-go unit rate.
- The docs do not define how target, bypass, and parameter credit costs combine.
- One rule explaining how every target, blocking-bypass, screenshot, and rendering cost combines (credit guide, Jul 26, 2026).
- A public unit rate for pay-as-you-go use on the plans that support it (ScraperAPI pricing, Jul 26, 2026).
- Queueing above concurrency. The page instead states that excess concurrent requests receive HTTP 429. Sources: ScraperAPI pricing and concurrency guide, checked Jul 26, 2026.
What ScraperAPI is
ScraperAPI is a managed web scraping API that accepts a target URL and handles proxy rotation, retries, browsers, and blocking countermeasures. It also exposes specialized handling for search engines, ecommerce sites, protected targets, screenshots, and structured output options. It is for developers who want to keep their own extraction logic while outsourcing page access and retry infrastructure. Sources: ScraperAPI and ScraperAPI pricing, checked Jul 26, 2026.
ScrapingBee, ZenRows, and Oxylabs Web Scraper API are the nearest named competitors. ScrapingBee combines its HTML API with AI queries and dedicated data endpoints, ZenRows separates Universal Scraper request credits from a browser-time and bandwidth path, and Oxylabs publishes target-dependent successful-result rates. ScraperAPI’s distinguishing commercial layer is its monthly credit pool with documented costs for target families and retrieval modes.

How billing works
One unit is one credit. A basic request consumes the base amount, while Amazon, Google, Bing, LinkedIn, premium proxy, JavaScript rendering, screenshots, stealth, protected-site handling, and combinations can consume more. Some published modes replace the base rate, while the documentation does not define a universal rule for combining every target, bypass, and parameter. Only HTTP 200 and 404 responses are normally charged. A client-cancelled call can still be charged when it is cancelled before ScraperAPI has had its documented completion window. The common buying mistake is to multiply the plan allowance by one basic request and treat that as capacity for every target. Actual consumption follows the target and enabled mode, and some combinations need direct confirmation. Source: ScraperAPI credit and request-cost guide, checked Jul 26, 2026.
Who it suits
ScraperAPI suits teams with a known mix of basic, rendered, premium, and named-target requests that can monitor credits by mode. It is less suitable for procurement that requires one public combination formula or a published overage rate before choosing a plan. The reason is that basic metering and success treatment are clear, but the full cross-product of options is not. Sources: ScraperAPI pricing and credit guide, checked Jul 26, 2026.
