ScrapeGraphAI review
A hosted scraping API that turns natural-language instructions into structured web data.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ScrapeGraphAI is a hosted web-scraping and data-extraction platform for developers and teams building AI workflows around website content. Its APIs accept URLs, web queries, or sites to crawl, then return outputs such as structured JSON, Markdown, HTML, links, images, summaries, screenshots, and branding data. Natural-language prompts and optional JSON schemas guide extraction without CSS selectors or XPath. That makes it a fit for teams that want website data to feed applications or AI frameworks, rather than a tool focused only on manual scraping.
The product’s breadth is a central strength: multi-page crawling sits alongside web search, scheduled page monitoring with webhook notifications, JavaScript rendering, and stealth fetching. Python and JavaScript SDKs, a CLI, and an MCP server provide developer access; integrations include LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, Vercel AI, LiteLLM, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Codex. The combination suits AI-oriented pipelines that need multiple output formats or framework connections. Teams looking for a narrowly focused scraper, or requiring self-hosted deployment, may prefer another option; ScrapeGraphAI is cloud-based.
According to the vendor’s pricing page, the Free Plan provides 500 one-time API credits, 10 requests per minute, one monitor, and one concurrent crawl. Starter costs $20 per month and includes 10,000 monthly credits, 100 requests per minute, five monitors, and three concurrent crawls. Growth is $100 monthly, with 100,000 credits, 500 requests per minute, 25 monitors, 15 concurrent crawls, and Basic Proxy Rotation. Pro costs $500 monthly and raises those limits to 750,000 credits, 5,000 requests per minute, 100 monitors, and 50 concurrent crawls, with Advanced Proxy Rotation and priority support. Enterprise has ad-hoc credits, custom rate limits, dedicated support, and an SLA guarantee. Choose a tier based on crawl volume and concurrency; the free tier is useful for initial evaluation, while paid tiers raise capacity.
