ScrapingBee Pricing: claimed

Claimed pricing — copied from the vendor's public pricing pages as of 2026-10-22. We have NOT benchmarked this provider yet; verify on their site before purchasing.

• What exactly is a "request"? ScrapingBee lists credits pricing (Hobby $19/mo (75k credits); Freelance $49/mo (250k credits)). Per-request, per-credit and per-GB models produce very different bills at the same volume — normalize to $/1k successful before comparing.
• Do failed requests bill? The most common hidden cost. In our 3-day benchmark of two providers, failed JS renders on the same target cost $2.38 vs $0.006 — the billing structure, not the list price, decided that gap.
• What do JS renders and premium IPs multiply by? 5–25× multipliers on rendering or residential exits are common market-wide. Get the full multiplier table in writing before committing volume.
• What's the success rate on your target? Vendor dashboards usually count HTTP 200 — a 200 that carries a block page is still a failure for your business. Pilot on your actual target with a content validator.
• What's the exit cost? Output formats, delivery options, and whether re-pulling historical data is included in the plan.

What does ScrapingBee cost?

Claimed entry tier: Hobby $19/mo (75k credits); Freelance $49/mo (250k credits) (pricing model: credits, checked 2026-10-22). Real cost per 1k successful responses depends on your success rate on the target — that is exactly what benchmarks are for.

Is ScrapingBee independently tested?

Not yet. Everything on this page is vendor-claimed; our benchmark roadmap adds providers over time, and we say so plainly rather than dressing claims up as measurements.

What should I double-check before signing up?

Three things in the contract, not the marketing: failure billing terms, the JS-render/residential multiplier table, and a paid pilot on your actual target site with a content validator — not a demo page.
