Zenscrape Finops

FinOps view of Zenscrape spend. Zenscrape bills a fixed monthly subscription per tier, each bundling a pool of request credits. Cost is realized as credits consumed per scrape: 1 credit basic, 5 with JavaScript rendering, 10 with premium proxies, and 25 with premium proxies plus rendering. Optimizing spend means choosing the lowest-cost request configuration that still succeeds and right-sizing the monthly tier to actual credit burn.
