Credits and Requests

Every time you make a request, you consume credits. The credits you have available are defined by the plan you are currently using. The amount of credits you consume depends on the domain and parameters you add to your request.

Domains

We have created custom scrapers to target these sites, if you scrape one of these domain categories you will activate this scraper and the credit cost will change.

Category	Credit Cost per Request
Normal Requests	1
E-Commerce Amazon	5
SERP Google, Bing - (applies to all subdomains)	25
Social Media LinkedIn, Twitter	30

Other domains may be applied, please use our API Playground before scraping to understand the cost per request will be.

Access to Protected Websites

Accessing domains with anti-scraping protections requires the activation of a bypass mechanism. This specialized process involves additional resources, resulting in an extra cost for scraping these protected websites.

Protection	Credit Cost per Request
Cloudflare Bypass	10
Datadome Bypass	10
PerimeterX/Human Bypass	10

We highly recommend using our API Playground before scraping to understand the cost per request will be as domains may switch protection measures. You can also set limits on your API credit expenditure. To find out more, please visit this page.
