## Two prices. That is the whole list.

Every request takes its price from your prepaid credit. Formats, metadata and redirects are included.

### Page

**$0.001** per page

Any public page or PDF, as Markdown, HTML, text, links or the raw body.

- All five formats in one request
- Page metadata when you ask for it
- 1,000 pages for $1

### Rendered page

**$0.005** per page

For pages built by JavaScript: the page runs in a headless browser first.

- Add js_render=true to any request
- Up to 120 seconds per page
- 200 pages for $1

### Free credit

**$1** when you sign up

Verify your email and start with free credit. No card needed.

- About 1,000 pages
- The same API, formats and limits
- Add credit only when you need more

## Estimate your monthly cost

Pick how many pages you fetch in a month and how many of them need JavaScript.

| Pages a month | Rendered with JavaScript | Cost a month |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 10,000 | 0% | $10.00 |
| 100,000 | 0% | $100.00 |
| 100,000 | 10% | $140.00 |
| 1,000,000 | 10% | $1,400.00 |
| 1,000,000 | 50% | $3,000.00 |

Estimates count successful requests only: errors cost nothing.

## Never on your bill

### Failed requests

Timeouts, blocked addresses, pages that would not load and Grabber's own failures all cost $0. You pay for a page only when you get it.

### Subscriptions

No plan, no seats and no monthly minimum. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to downgrade.

### Card fees

Grabber pays Stripe's fee, so $25 paid is $25 of credit.

### Extra formats

Markdown, HTML, text and links in one request cost the same as one of them: it is one page load.

## Credit and top-ups

| Item | How it works |
| --- | --- |
| Smallest top-up | $5 |
| Quick amounts | $10, $25, $50, $100 |
| Auto top-up | When the balance falls below $5, add $25. You choose both amounts. |
| Payment | Card, through Stripe. Invoices are in the dashboard. |
| Credit lifetime | 365 days from when you add it |
| Spend tracking | Every response has `X-Grabber-Cost` and `X-Grabber-Balance`, and the dashboard lists each request. |

## Pricing questions

### Is there a monthly minimum or subscription?

No. Grabber is prepaid. You add credit when you want it, from $5, and each request takes its price from that credit. There is no plan, no monthly minimum and nothing to cancel.

### Can I pay for a single request?

Yes. Every request is billed on its own: $0.001 for a page, or $0.005 when JavaScript rendering is on. New accounts get $1 of free credit, enough for 1,000 pages, with no credit card.

### Am I charged for failed requests?

No. You pay only for a page that was loaded. Any error, such as a timeout, a blocked address or a page that could not be reached, costs nothing. A page whose own server answered 404 or 500 still counts as loaded, because you get its content and its status code.

### What happens when my credit runs out?

Requests answer 402 with a link to add credit, and nothing is charged. Turn on auto top-up and your balance is refilled before it runs out.

### Do credits expire?

Credit is valid for 365 days after you add it. Every response carries X-Grabber-Cost and X-Grabber-Balance headers, and the dashboard lists each request with its cost.

### Do I get an invoice?

Yes. Every payment has an invoice on the Billing page of the dashboard.
