| Free tier | 10,000 credits a month, no credit card, refreshed monthly unit requests; metered on request-count |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits |
the default request is 10 credits, so the 10,000-credit free tier is 1,000 pages and the credit headline overstates the tier tenfold |
| Identity | email no credit card required, stated twice on the page |
| Egress | not applicable: HTML, Markdown or text answers |
| Retention | credits refresh monthly |
| Interface | rest REST with three agent-callable MCP tools: get_web_page_html, get_web_page_markdown, get_web_page_text |
| Tooling | not stated |
| Composes with | A rendered page at 10 credits is ten times Firecrawl's 1 credit, so it is the wrong first leg and a reasonable last one |
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
| Notes | The clearest arithmetic trap in the class: the headline is 10,000 and the usable figure is 1,000, because the default request is a rendered page at 10 credits. A page that quotes 10,000 has overstated the tier tenfold. |
