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 shri@hyperbrowser.ai and I can follow-up there :)

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