3 Reasons to ChooseScrape.do
Over ScraperAPI
3x Faster Response Times
ScraperAPI averages 15+ seconds per request and is one of the slowest APIs in the market. Scrape.do delivers results in <5 seconds on average. When you're scraping thousands of pages, that speed penalty cuts your throughput by two-thirds.
10x Lower Cost Per Request
At $8.49 average cost per 1,000 requests, ScraperAPI is the most expensive provider tested. Scrape.do averages $0.80 per 1K, which is more than 10x cheaper.
Protected Sites Don't Bankrupt Your Budget
ScraperAPI charges extremely high per 1K requests on Capterra or other more-protected sites, due to ultra-premium proxy requirements. Scrape.do handles the same domains at sometimes even 60x cheaper prices. The unpredictable pricing spikes on protected sites make ScraperAPI costs impossible to forecast.
Scrape.do has been a game-changer with powerful scraping tools, but what truly sets them apart is their excellent customer support.

ScraperAPI's pricing model results in an average cost of $8.49 per 1K requests, making it the most expensive provider in our testing. They charge premium prices even for simple sites, and protected sites can cost even more.
