WebScraping.AI

WebScraping.AI is a web scraping API that returns the rendered HTML, visible text, CSS-selected fragments, or LLM-extracted structured data of any URL, so callers do not have to operate their own scraping infrastructure. The service handles headless Chromium JavaScript rendering, rotating datacenter, residential and stealth proxies, CAPTCHA solving and geotargeting. Seven read-only GET operations on api.webscraping.ai are documented in a published OpenAPI 3.1.0 specification, authenticated with an api_key query parameter, metered in credits and bounded by a per-plan ceiling on concurrent requests. The same capabilities are reachable as a hosted OAuth-protected MCP server for AI assistants, an HTTP proxy front-end for existing scraping tools, an official CLI that ships an installable agent skill, and first-party SDKs for Python, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, Go, Java and .NET.

WebScraping.AI publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Account API, AI API, HTML API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Web Scraping, Data Extraction, Proxies, Artificial Intelligence, and Browser Automation.

WebScraping.AI’s developer surface includes authentication, CLI, sandbox, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, developer console, and 31 more developer resources.
