Overview

What is ScrapingBee?

ScrapingBee is a web scraping API that returns page content from a single API call while it manages headless browsers, rotating and premium proxies, and blocking. It supports JavaScript rendering, geotargeting, screenshots, CSS and XPath extraction rules, AI-based extraction, and Markdown output, plus dedicated APIs for Google, Amazon, Walmart, and YouTube. Developers, data engineers, founders, and growth teams use ScrapingBee to collect pricing, listings, search, and research data without running their own scraping infrastructure.

Arvind K.

Proprietor

“Liked that it returns needed data even on low-cost settings and that CSS and XPath extraction saves DOM work, plus strong support. Found a learning curve and long documentation without JavaScript examples.”

Nickolas F.

Associate Professor

“Liked the online request builder for testing calls and the knowledgeable, responsive team that answers questions quickly. Noted no major drawbacks.”

Eshwaran V.

CTO

“Liked the fast requests, easy integration, good documentation, and cost-effective pricing. Found that the search results API returns raw HTML that still needs parsing.”

Shotaro Y.

Front-End Engineer

“Liked how it handles proxies, JavaScript rendering, and CAPTCHAs, with good docs and support. Found that heavy requests consume many credits and entry tiers cap concurrency.”

Integrations

ScrapingBee integrations

ScrapingBee is built to drop into developer workflows. Its REST API can be called from any language, and the request builder exports ready code snippets for common stacks, while official SDKs cover Python and Node.js. A command line tool and an MCP server let AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex call the scraper directly. For no-code automation, ScrapingBee connects to n8n and Make, so teams can send scraped pages or extracted JSON into spreadsheets, databases, or CRMs. Dedicated endpoints for Google Search, Amazon, Walmart, YouTube, ChatGPT, and Gemini return structured results without writing custom parsers for each site.
