Before you choose

Choose a platform that fits your workflow

The entries cover web, API, Windows and Linux use, with some also showing browser extension or macOS support.

Check whether a tool runs where you need it before comparing plans. API and web access suit different setups than desktop software.

Look for an available free plan

A free-plan option is listed for Apify, Bright Data Web Scraper, Browse AI, Data Miner, Diffbot, Octoparse, ParseHub and ScraperAPI.

Hexomatic does not show a free plan. Review the plan terms before choosing a starting point.

Review trial periods separately

The listed trial lengths are 14 days for Octoparse and 7 days for ScraperAPI. A trial and a free plan are separate offers, so check which term applies to the tool you want.

Review the published paid rates

Published starting rates put Apify at $19 per month, Diffbot at $299 per month and Octoparse at $69 per month with annual billing.

OutWit Hub Pro has a one-time listed price of €69.
