• Annual Personal includes 12,000 credits a year, half of what the $48 monthly plan provides over twelve months.
• Sites marked Premium, which need special proxies, cost a minimum of 2 to 10 credits per run.
• Plans cap the number of websites at 2, 5 and 10; extra websites are a paid add-on on Personal and Professional.

Skyvern

• The cloud Free plan is 5,000 credits, about 170 actions, and the pricing page does not show it renewing each month.
• 2FA and TOTP support, team workspaces, residential proxies and state or city targeting start on Pro at $149 a month.
• Custom code blocks, human-in-the-loop steps and HIPAA compliance are listed only under Enterprise.
• The self-hosted edition is AGPL-3.0 and needs your own LLM provider; proxies, anti-bot measures and CAPTCHA solving are described as part of Skyvern Cloud.

AI web scraper

Paste the address of a page and the AI reads it, extracts the data and proposes the columns. You review them, and can add a field by describing it in plain language.

Recorded robots

With the browser extension you record a task once: open a page, log in, click, fill in forms, extract data or take screenshots. The robot then repeats it with inputs you can change per run.

Website monitoring

A robot can re-check pages on a schedule and flag content or visual changes. The shortest interval is hourly on the Free plan and 5 minutes on Personal and Professional.

Deep scraping

A robot can extract a list and then visit each item's detail page for more fields, so one run covers many pages.

Prebuilt robots

More than 250 ready-made robots extract data from popular websites without recording anything or installing the extension.

Spreadsheets, integrations and API

Results sync to Google Sheets or Airtable, flow through Zapier, Make, Pabbly Connect and webhooks, land in Amazon S3, or are served through a REST API.

Skyvern

Vision-based browser agents

Agents combine computer vision with LLM reasoning to read a page, so a workflow keeps working after a site changes its layout. Each run has a summary of the actions taken and why.

Several ways to build a workflow

Describe the task to a copilot in plain English, upload a written procedure, record yourself doing it in a browser, or assemble blocks in a visual editor.

Logins, 2FA and CAPTCHAs

A credential vault stores passwords and 2FA codes without exposing them to the LLM, and connects to 1Password and Bitwarden. Runs can pass TOTP prompts and solve CAPTCHAs.

Structured data extraction

Data pulled from a site is returned in a schema you define, as JSON or CSV, and documents can be downloaded from portals that sit behind a login.

Proxies and geo-targeting

Cloud runs go through datacenter or residential proxies, with targeting by country on the lower plans and by state or city on Pro and Enterprise.

API, SDKs and MCP

Workflows can be triggered through a REST API, Python and TypeScript SDKs or webhooks, and Skyvern can act as a tool for MCP-compatible clients such as Claude and Cursor.
