You Handle the AI.
We Handle the Web.

Anti-bot systems, JavaScript rendering, captchas, rotating proxies, rate limits. That is a full engineering project. We handle all of it. Your agent sends a request, gets clean data back.

Never get blocked

Anti-bot bypass, proxy rotation, captcha solving. Invisible to you.

Never parse HTML

Get markdown, structured JSON, or CSV. Formats your LLM actually wants.

Never maintain scrapers

Sites change. We adapt. Your API call stays the same.

Try It Yourself

Pick an endpoint, pick a language. One call does it all.

More Than Scraping

Chain endpoints together to build complete data pipelines. Search, scrape, extract, verify. Four API calls to go from a query to qualified leads.

Step 1: Search

Search Google for "best CRM tools for startups"

API Call
GET /v2/google_search?query=best+CRM+tools+for+startups
→ 10 organic results with URLs, titles, snippets

4 API calls. 10 qualified leads with verified emails. Under 30 seconds.

What You Can Build

Customer Discovery

Find prospects, scrape company pages, verify emails, detect their tech stack.

Search "best CRM tools" → Scrape top 10 → Extract company info → Verify founder emails → 10 qualified leads in 30 seconds

Competitive Intelligence

Monitor competitor pages, extract pricing and features with AI, track changes.

Scrape competitor.com/pricing → Extract plans as JSON → Compare against yours → Alert on changes

RAG Pipelines

Turn any web page into clean markdown ready for your vector database.

Scrape docs.example.com → Clean markdown output → Chunk and embed → Your RAG pipeline has fresh data

Price Monitoring

Track product prices across retailers with Google Shopping and page scraping.

Google Shopping "mechanical keyboard" → Track 50 products → LLM extracts price + availability → Daily price alerts

Sales Prospecting

Enrich prospect lists with web data and verify emails before outreach.

Scrape LinkedIn company page → Extract team members → Find emails → Verify deliverability → Clean outreach list

AI Agent Web Access

Give any MCP-compatible agent full web intelligence through natural tool calls.

"Hey Claude, find me the latest funding rounds in fintech and summarize each company" → Done

Your AI Already Knows
How to Use It

The old way: write scraping scripts, handle proxies, parse HTML, maintain everything. The new way: add WebScraperAPI as an MCP server. Your AI agent gets search, scraping, extraction, and verification as native tools. Describe what you want in plain English.

One API Instead of Five

Other tools do scraping. Or search. Or extraction. WebScraperAPI does all of it, plus email verification and tech detection, with MCP tools for AI agents. One API key, one bill.
