Screenshotbase

About Screenshotbase

Screenshotbase is a REST API for programmatically capturing website screenshots. It supports full-page and scrolling screenshots, specific-element captures, custom viewport sizes for responsive/device simulation, PDF output, and image formats such as PNG. Additional capabilities include geo- and device-based content emulation via proxies, custom HTTP headers and cookies, injection of custom CSS and JavaScript, blocking of cookie banners and ads, and captcha bypassing.

The service provides SDKs for multiple programming languages, including JavaScript and PHP, along with a JSON REST API, documentation, and an API playground for testing requests. It offers webhook integrations with tools such as Make and Zapier, S3 upload, and caching.

It is aimed at developers and businesses that need automated or large-scale website screenshot generation, ranging from self-service API integration to a fully managed screenshot service. Plans include a free tier (300 requests per month), paid tiers priced at $15/month (Basic, 3,000 screenshots), $59/month (Premium, 20,000 screenshots), and $210/month (Enterprise, 75,000 screenshots), as well as custom plans for higher volumes or custom integrations. The company states it is based in Europe and GDPR compliant.
