About ScrapingAnt

ScrapingAnt is a web data infrastructure platform combining a scraping API, proxy network, and AI-based extraction tools. Its core API renders pages through headless Chrome with rotating proxies behind a single endpoint, returning content as raw HTML, LLM-ready Markdown, or JSON, and supports custom JavaScript snippets, wait-for-selector logic, custom cookies and headers, and parallel requests without concurrency caps. An AI Data Scraper feature accepts plain-English descriptions of desired data and returns structured JSON without requiring CSS selectors or XPath.

The platform also sells standalone residential and datacenter proxies — over 3 million IPs across more than 100 countries — with country, state, and city targeting, sticky sessions, and unlimited concurrency, billed separately by bandwidth. It provides an MCP server with HTML, Markdown, and text tools for integration with AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. Listed use cases include price monitoring, search engine results page scraping, real estate and classifieds data collection, lead generation, AI agent web access, and brand/content monitoring.

Pricing is credit-based across five tiers: Enthusiast (100,000 credits/month, $19/mo), Startup (500,000 credits/month, $49/mo), Business (3,000,000 credits/month, $249/mo), Business Pro (8,000,000 credits/month, $599/mo), and a Custom tier (10 million+ credits/month, $699+/mo) with dedicated account management. All plans include 10,000 free credits per month with no credit card required, and failed requests are not charged.
