WebScrap review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

WebScrap is a hosted API for collecting and extracting data from public web pages. It suits engineers and teams that want to define extraction fields, retrieve structured results and automate recurring collection rather than manually copy page content. Requests can use rotating datacenter or residential proxies and select a proxy country; pages can be fetched in a fast mode or rendered in a real browser. The API also includes endpoints for search results, product pages and job listings.

Its extraction and crawl controls are the main draw. Teams can describe fields with CSS or XPath schemas or plain-English instructions, and receive typed JSON or raw HTML, with screenshots available as an option. Browser rendering can wait for a CSS selector, while retries use a fresh identity to handle blocks and rate limits. Crawls can start from a seed URL and follow depth and pattern rules. Scheduled jobs and webhook delivery support recurring workflows, though Webhooks is the only listed integration, so teams seeking a wider prebuilt connector ecosystem may need to handle more through their own API work.

The paid plans scale by successful requests, concurrency and retention. Starter costs $49 per month for 50,000 requests, five concurrent requests, 20 proxy countries and 24-hour retention. Growth is $149 monthly for 250,000 requests and 50 concurrent requests, with scheduled jobs and seven-day retention. Scale costs $499 monthly for 1,500,000 requests, 200 concurrent requests, 500 scheduled jobs and a 99.9% uptime commitment. Enterprise is $998 monthly for 3,000,000 requests and 400 concurrent requests, plus SAML or OIDC SSO and private proxy pool and data residency options. Choose WebScrap when API-based extraction and configurable crawling fit your workflow; look elsewhere if a free subscription or more listed integrations is important.
