3 Reasons to ChooseScrape.do
Over WebScrapingAPI
35x More Requests Per Dollar
WebScrapingAPI's $19 starter plan includes only 7,000 requests. Scrape.do's $29 plan includes 250,000 requests. The "cheap" entry price becomes expensive when you calculate cost per request.
Actually Works on Protected Sites
On tougher domains such as X and Capterra, WebScrapingAPI hits low success rates while Scrape.do achieves 100% on Capterra and 85%+ on Twitter. The flat pricing doesn't help when requests fail very often.
2.5x Faster Response Times
WebScrapingAPI doesn't have the worst speed among web scraping APIs, but it's 2.5x slower compared to Scrape.do's <5second response times. Speed determines throughput capacity in larger operations.
Scrape.do has been a game-changer with powerful scraping tools, but what truly sets them apart is their excellent customer support.

Reliable, Scalable,Unstoppable Web Scraping
Sounds great, but I have a few questions..
WebScrapingAPI has a larger free tier (5,000 vs 1,000 monthly) and a lower starting price ($19 vs $29). However, Scrape.do includes 35x more requests in its starter plan (250K vs 7K), is 2.6x faster, and has significantly higher success rates on protected sites. For serious scraping, Scrape.do delivers far better value.
WebScrapingAPI's $19 starter plan includes only 7,000 requests ($2.71 per 1K). Scrape.do's $29 plan includes 250,000 requests ($0.12 per 1K). The lower entry price masks a much higher per-request cost. At scale, Scrape.do is significantly more economical.
Scrape.do offers 1,000 free credits monthly that refresh every month. While WebScrapingAPI offers 5,000 free requests, Scrape.do's paid plans provide dramatically better value with 35x more requests per dollar.
Migrating from WebScrapingAPI to Scrape.do is straightforward. Scrape.do handles protected sites that WebScrapingAPI struggles with (like Capterra and Twitter) and delivers results 2.5x faster. Our support team provides <5min response times to help with migration.
