        Everything you need to know about Firecrawl.
          Everything you need to know about Firecrawl.
          General
            What is Firecrawl?
              Firecrawl helps AI systems search, scrape, and interact with the web. One API to turn websites into clean, LLM-ready data. Ideal for AI companies looking to empower their LLM applications with web data
            What sites work?
              Firecrawl is best suited for business websites, docs and help centers. We currently don't support social media platforms.
            Who can benefit from using Firecrawl?
              Firecrawl serves a wide range of users — developers building AI agents, teams wiring up AI workflows, vibe coders shipping fast, data scientists, and AI researchers. Whether you're building a chatbot that needs live web context, enriching data for a sales tool, or powering deep research, Firecrawl simplifies getting the web data you need so you can focus on your application.
            Why do AI systems need Firecrawl?
              AI is only as good as the context it gets, and the web is the largest source of live context — but it was built for humans, not machines. Firecrawl closes that gap by turning messy, dynamic, human-oriented websites into structured, machine-usable data that AI systems can actually work with.
            What are Search, Scrape, and Interact?
              These are Firecrawl's three core capabilities. Search finds relevant information on the web. Scrape turns websites into clean, structured, AI-usable data. Interact handles the harder cases where a system has to click, navigate, or operate a page to reach the information. Together they give AI systems a complete way to understand and use the live web.
            Who uses Firecrawl?
              Over a million users have signed up for Firecrawl, and we power companies like Apple, Canva, and Lovable. Developers, teams building agents, people wiring up AI workflows — all of them reach for Firecrawl because it solves a real problem they keep hitting: getting reliable, AI-ready data from the live web.
            Is Firecrawl open-source?
              Yes. Firecrawl is the largest open source repo in the space with over 100,000 GitHub stars. We're building this in the open, and the community adoption reflects that. You can check out the repository on GitHub.
            How is Firecrawl different from other tools in the space?
              Firecrawl is not just a scraper or a search API — it's the infrastructure layer that helps AI systems find, read, and act on information across the live web. Search, scrape, and interact work together on top of deep web data infrastructure including crawling, rendering, extraction, and indexing. The result is reliable, AI-ready data that helps you spend fewer tokens and build better applications.
            What is the difference between the open-source version and the hosted version?
              Firecrawl's hosted version features Fire-engine, our proprietary infrastructure that handles proxies, anti-bot mechanisms, and more to reliably deliver the data you need. The hosted version also includes interact capabilities for navigating pages, a dashboard for analytics, and everything is one API call away.
          How It Works
            How does Firecrawl handle dynamic content on websites?
              Firecrawl is equipped to handle dynamic content rendered with JavaScript. It ensures comprehensive data extraction from all accessible subpages, making it reliable for websites that rely heavily on JS for content delivery.
            Why is it not crawling all the pages?
              There are a few reasons why Firecrawl may not be able to crawl all the pages of a website. Some common reasons include rate limiting, and anti-scraping mechanisms, disallowing the crawler from accessing certain pages. If you're experiencing issues with the crawler, please reach out to our support team at help@firecrawl.com.
            Can Firecrawl crawl websites without a sitemap?
              Yes, Firecrawl can access and crawl all accessible subpages of a website, even in the absence of a sitemap. This feature enables users to gather data from a wide array of web sources with minimal setup.
            What formats can Firecrawl convert web data into?
              Firecrawl specializes in converting web data into clean, well-formatted markdown. This format is particularly suited for LLM applications, offering a structured yet flexible way to represent web content.
            How does Firecrawl ensure the cleanliness of the data?
              Firecrawl employs advanced algorithms to clean and structure the scraped data, removing unnecessary elements and formatting the content into readable markdown. This process ensures that the data is ready for use in LLM applications without further preprocessing.
            Is Firecrawl suitable for large-scale projects?
              Absolutely. Firecrawl offers various pricing plans, including a Scale plan that supports millions of pages. With features like caching and scheduled syncs, it's designed to efficiently handle large-scale data extraction and continuous updates, making it ideal for enterprises and large projects.
            Does it respect robots.txt?
              Yes, Firecrawl's crawl endpoint respects the rules set in a website's robots.txt file. If you notice any issues with the way Firecrawl interacts with your website, you can adjust the robots.txt file to control the crawler's behavior. Firecrawl respects rules set for the 'FirecrawlAgent' directive in robots.txt. If you notice any behavior that is not expected, please let us know at help@firecrawl.com.
            What measures does Firecrawl take to handle challenges like rate limits and caching?
              Firecrawl's infrastructure is built to navigate common challenges including stealth proxies, rate limits, and smart wait. It manages requests intelligently and employs techniques to minimize bandwidth usage and avoid triggering anti-bot mechanisms, ensuring reliable data collection.
            Does Firecrawl handle complex websites?
              Yes. Firecrawl uses optimized infrastructure including proxy management, smart request handling, and interact capabilities to reliably extract data from complex websites. You can also pass custom headers to the API for additional flexibility.
          API Related
            Where can I find my API key?
              Click on the dashboard button on the top navigation menu when logged in and you will find your API key in the main screen and under API Keys.

          Billing
            Is Firecrawl free?
              Firecrawl is free for the first 500 pages (500 free credits). After that, you can upgrade to our Hobby, Standard or Growth plans for more credits and higher rate limits. AI agents can get started using the onboarding skill at https://www.firecrawl.dev/agent-onboarding/SKILL.md which handles signup and API key creation in one smooth flow.
            Is there a pay-per-use plan instead of monthly?
              We currently do not offer a pay-per-use plan, instead you can upgrade to our Hobby, Standard or Growth plans for more credits and higher rate limits.
            Do credits roll over to the next month?
              In short, no — credits do not roll over to the next month/year. Credit packs follow their own billing period. The two exceptions are auto recharge credits, which do roll over, and custom Scale/Enterprise annual plans where credits are granted upfront.
            How many credits does each request cost?
              Scrape and crawl requests usually cost 1 credit per webpage or 1 credit per PDF page. Search requests cost 1 credit per result. There are advanced features available which cost additional credits. Check out the credits table on the pricing page for more details.
            Do you charge for failed requests?
              We do not usually charge for any failed requests. The only exception is requests using FIRE-1 agent are always billed, even if the request fails. Please contact support at help@firecrawl.com if you notice something wrong.
            What payment methods do you accept?
              We accept payments through Stripe which accepts most major credit cards, debit cards, and PayPal.
