Pay for what you use. Nothing else.
No monthly fee. No tiers. No feature gating. Every endpoint is available from your first request. We charge upstream cost plus a 14% margin. That's the whole model.
Marketing pages, blog posts, docs, SPAs, infinite scroll. Cascade auto-escalates to a real browser if static fetch returns thin content. You pay one flat per-page rate either way.
Click, scroll, type, wait — anything requiring multi-step browser automation. Used for behind-login pages, search inputs, infinite-scroll feeds.
14-source fan-out, RRF ranking, Gemini synthesis with citations.
Founded year, funding, revenue, tech stack, leadership, contact emails.
Cascade auto-escalation absorbed into the $0.0007 page price — you don't pay more when we have to use a residential proxy or third-party unblocker. · Platform endpoints — $0.0005–0.05 depending on action. See the full per-endpoint table →
Where your money goes
Two examples: one static-fetch scrape, one research call. Same model for every endpoint — upstream cost plus 14%.
FAQ
Is there a free tier?
10 free requests when you sign up. No card required. Use them across any endpoint — research, scrape, enrich, platform.
How does billing work?
Top up your wallet with a minimum of $5. Each request deducts from your balance. When it's low, top up again. No auto-billing, no surprises.
Do balances expire?
No. Your balance is yours forever. Don't use FairCrawl for a year? Your money is still there.
What if a request fails?
You only pay for successful requests. If a scrape returns 404 or a research query returns no results, you're not charged.
Is there rate limiting?
No artificial rate limits. You're limited only by upstream platform capacity. We don't throttle.
Why one flat $0.0007 for both static and JS?
We could split static (cheap) from Playwright (expensive) like Firecrawl does, but that pushes complexity onto you — you'd have to predict whether each URL needs JS. We auto-escalate inside one cascade: direct fetch first, then Playwright if needed, then residential proxy, then a third-party unblocker. You pay $0.0007 either way. We absorb the cost variation.
Do volume discounts kick in?
Yes. $0.0007 per page until you cross $100 month-to-date, then $0.0005 per page. Cross $500 MTD and it's $0.0004 per page. Tiers reset monthly. No commitment to hit any tier.
What does a research call cost?
Around $0.018 per query. The price varies slightly based on how many sources return results and how much synthesis the model does. We bill you the exact amount, itemized per call.
Can I get a custom plan?
No. Custom plans are how vendors charge enterprises 10x more for the same product. Everyone pays the same per-unit price.
