Web scraping API library for structured data extraction at scale.

Visit Piloterr

Piloterr is a web scraping API platform that provides a library of over 500 ready-to-use endpoints for extracting structured data from websites. It solves the common challenges of building and maintaining scraping infrastructure by offering managed proxy rotation, headless Chrome rendering for JavaScript-heavy sites, and automatic bypass of anti-bot protections and CAPTCHAs. The platform returns data as structured JSON or LLM-ready Markdown, eliminating the need for developers to build their own scraping stack.

The platform offers several core products: Scraper APIs for standard data extraction, a Headless Browser for JavaScript rendering and browser automation, and an AI Web Unblocker for bypassing advanced protections like Cloudflare and DataDome. It includes built-in infrastructure such as private datacenter pools, geo-targeting, and automatic IP rotation. Piloterr integrates with automation tools including Zapier, Make, n8n, and Google Apps Script, as well as AI frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, and Pydantic AI. It also supports MCP-compatible AI clients such as Cursor, Claude Code, and ChatGPT.

Piloterr is designed for developers and data teams who need to integrate web scraping into their applications or workflows. It offers a free trial with 500 credits upon signup with no credit card required. Paid plans are subscription-based with monthly credit allowances and rate limits, covering access to all public API endpoints. Credits are consumed per successful request, with different rates for standard API calls, JavaScript rendering requests, and WebUnlocker requests.
