Questions
How does Scrape Everything's pricing compare with Apify?
It depends on your volume and the endpoints you use. Our packs: $39.00 for 25,000 credits ($1.56 per 1,000); $119.00 for 100,000 credits ($1.19 per 1,000); $449.00 for 500,000 credits ($0.90 per 1,000); most endpoints cost 1 credit. Apify's list prices (last verified Oct 22, 2026) are in the table above. A credit or unit is not necessarily one request on either side, so compare the cost per call for the endpoints you use, and check their pricing page for current numbers.
Can I switch from Apify?
Yes. Every endpoint takes a small JSON body (a username, link or ID) and returns documented JSON, so most integrations only need a new base URL, an API key and field mapping. Start with the free credits to compare responses side by side.
Which platforms does Scrape Everything cover?
Instagram, X, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Telegram, Spotify, Pinterest, Twitch: 40 endpoints in total.
