Cash per month
$249.00 /mo
Business: 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 → Business $249.00/mo = $2.49 per 1,000 pages kept
The arithmetic, line by line
- pages: 1 credit per request source
- JavaScript rendering: 10 credits per request, combination rule not published, higher rate applied source
- consumes 1,000,000 credits per month
- cheapest way to buy that: Business, 3,000,000 included = $249.00 per month source
- 2,000,000 of the included allowance goes unused, 67% of what you buy
What makes it cost more
One page is not always one billed unit. These are ScrapingAnt's published charges for each kind of work; failed requests are not billed.
| Work | Costs | Per | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| A standard page | 1 credit | request | source |
| Residential proxies | 25 credits | request | source |
| Google pages | 10 credits | request | source |
| JavaScript rendering | 10 credits | request | source |
| JavaScript rendering with residential proxies | 125 credits | request | source |
Limits and terms
What ScrapingAnt 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
- The pricing page markets concurrency as unlimited, saying you can push as many parallel requests as your worker pool handles, while the public error documentation still lists HTTP 409 for too many simultaneous requests. source, read Sep 2, 2026

What ScrapingAnt does not publish
- ScrapingAnt doesn't publish a concurrency limit.
- The pricing page's rendered-request capacity claim conflicts with the billing documentation.
What ScrapingAnt is
ScrapingAnt combines a web scraping API, headless Chrome, rotating proxies, Markdown output, natural-language structured extraction, and an MCP interface under one account. It also sells standalone proxy access separately by bandwidth. It is for developers and agent builders who want direct HTML, browser-rendered content, LLM-oriented text, or structured JSON without maintaining separate browser and proxy infrastructure. Source: ScrapingAnt, checked Jul 26, 2026.
ScraperAPI, ScrapingBee, and Tavily are the nearest named comparisons for different parts of that scope. ScraperAPI centers on managed page retrieval and target modes, ScrapingBee combines retrieval with AI extraction and dedicated APIs, and Tavily centers on search and retrieval for agents. ScrapingAnt’s distinction is that its direct API and MCP tools use the same monthly API-credit system, while standalone proxy bandwidth remains a separate product.

How billing works
One unit is one API credit. The documented request bundle depends on proxy class and JavaScript rendering: datacenter without rendering is the base path, while residential access, datacenter rendering, and residential rendering consume different replacement amounts. Google targeting has its own documented treatment. Blocked and error responses are not billed; the vendor describes billable delivery as HTTP 200 with content. The common buying mistake is to assume the default browser-rendered request has the same cost as a basic non-rendered request. It does not, and standalone proxy traffic also does not draw from the API-credit pool. Sources: ScrapingAnt credit-cost documentation, migration guide, and ScrapingAnt, checked Jul 26, 2026.
What ScrapingAnt does not publish consistently
- A reliable numeric concurrency ceiling. The pricing copy says plans have no enforced per-key cap, while public error documentation still includes a simultaneous-request error (ScrapingAnt pricing, Jul 26, 2026).
- A reconciled rendered-request capacity statement. The Business-plan marketing example implies a different credit use from the explicit billing guide. Sources reviewed: ScrapingAnt pricing and credit-cost documentation, checked Jul 26, 2026.
- A rollover benefit. The pricing page states that monthly credits do not roll over. Source: ScrapingAnt pricing, checked Jul 26, 2026.
Who it suits
ScrapingAnt suits developers who want browser retrieval, proxy selection, extraction, and MCP access under the same API balance and can follow the explicit billing documentation. It is less suitable when procurement needs one unambiguous public concurrency figure or relies on the plan’s rendered-capacity marketing example for forecasting. The reason is that the detailed mode formula is usable, but two higher-level capacity statements do not fully reconcile. Sources: ScrapingAnt, pricing, and credit costs, checked Jul 26, 2026.
ScrapingAnt head to head
Both bills for the same job, and the volume where the cheaper one changes.
