Your pricing is too confusing. Either price it based on number of requests like ScrapingBee does, or base it entirely on bandwidth. Instead your pricing is based on both bandwidth and “minutes” (which is also hard to predict when some sites can load slower than others)

2nd, the pricing also seems way way below what ScrapingBee offers.

You charge $100 for 60K credits. So assuming 18 credits for 1 page (3 MB per page) that allows me to crawl 3333 web pages. $250 would allow me to crawl under 10k pages

In comparison it costs $249 for 3 million credits in ScrapingBee which enable me to crawl 100,000 webpages (with JS and proxies enabled)

Am i missing something obvious here?

Hey! Completely hear you on that, right now we just have endpoints for headless browsers, this is a instance running chrome with dedicated resources that you have full access to. This comes with proxy services and captcha solving. This comes at a higher cost but you will get blocked less and can do much more, like browser automations.

Dedicated endpoints for just scraping like scraping bee are coming next week at a discounted price! In the mean time let me know if there is anything you would like that scraping bee is missing :)

Thanks, ScrapingBee has everything I am looking for in terms of functionality. My honest opinion is that most people who are looking for an alternative just want something cheaper. Thats 99% of what I am looking for, at least

Things like captcha solving are nice no doubt but for many people, their use cases just aren’t compelling enough to make it worth the ROI. I would love captcha solving, but definitely not at your price point..

Other cofounder of Hyperbrowser here - thanks for the feedback, and noted!

We aim to be pretty competitive on price across the board. Today we're just launching our headless browser service and I think we're significantly less expensive than competitors on that as dbmikus mentioned below

Totally hear you on the scraping specific use case without captcha solving etc though - we'll probably launch competitive pricing for this specific use case in the next few days. I'll make a note to leave a comment here when we do or feel free to email me at [e-mail] and I can follow-up there :)

OK i am waiting to hear what you have in store!
