// Core Features

Everything You Need.
Nothing You Don't.

Five blocks that explain why DataBlue beats the field on the things that actually matter when you turn websites into LLM-ready data.

01JSON Parsing

Structured JSON,
Not Raw HTML.

Use documented JSON fields from source-specific data APIs, or choose a web extraction workflow for your own schema. Available fields depend on the endpoint and source response.

// What you skip

Maintaining source-specific HTML parsers in your application
Token-heavy HTML being fed into your LLM
Passing unrelated page markup into downstream workflows

RESULTUse the fields you need. Payload size and model costs depend on the source, selected output, and your workflow.

02Global Coverage

Localized Data,
Worldwide.

Set any location down to the city, any language, any device. DataBlue scrapes and searches from that exact location, so you see the prices, content, and results a real local user would, critical for localized scraping, rank tracking, and international research.

# pull mobile SERP for biryani in Madurai, in Tamil
result = datablue.serp(
    query="best biryani",

Weights.

Each endpoint has a visible live-catalog weight before you run it. Monthly plan credits reset with the billing period, while top-up credits remain available as overflow until you use them.

RULEMonthly first · top-up second · failed billable units released. Clear before the request runs.

plus REST.

Use the active Python and Node.js clients, or call the same API directly with cURL from any stack.

from datablue import DataBlue

client = DataBlue(api_key="wh_your_api_key")

# Scrape any URL -> clean, LLM-ready JSON
result = client.scrape(
    "https://example.com",
    formats=["markdown", "links"],
)
print(result.markdown)

# Crawl an entire domain in one call
status = client.crawl("https://example.com", max_pages=50)
for page in status.data:
    print(page.url, len(page.markdown))

# Async client for app workers and API routes
from datablue import AsyncDataBlue

async with AsyncDataBlue(api_key="wh_your_api_key") as async_client:
    async_result = await async_client.scrape(
        "https://example.com",
        formats=["markdown"],
    )

// Active client support

Python + Node.js

The public SDK surface matches the API methods developers use most.

SDK defaults

Network and server retries use the SDK defaults where supported.

Plan-aware throughput

Concurrency and request limits come from the active plan, not hidden code samples.

REST fallback

Every feature can also be called with bearer-token HTTP requests.

Why DataBlueYouTube metadata, not transcripts; Apple App Store, not Google Play

// Why We Exist

Built on Principles,
Not Shortcuts.

We've all been there. Usage pages that do not match invoices. Hidden multipliers that change unit economics after launch. Raw HTML when you needed structured data. DataBlue was built around visible endpoint weights, success-only billing, and clear credit buckets.

Clear Credit Buckets.

Monthly credits and top-ups behave differently.

Monthly plan credits reset with your billing period. Top-up credits do not expire and are used after your monthly credits.

// Why this mattersClear credit buckets make usage predictable without hiding expiry rules in fine print.

Transparent Endpoint Weights.

Costs are visible before you run.

SERP Lite, Advanced SERP, Maps, and other APIs use explicit admin-managed weights. The public pricing page shows the active catalog.

// Why this mattersPredictable costs let you budget with confidence and forecast unit economics.

AI-Ready by Default.

Structured JSON · LLM extraction · MCP support — every plan.

No "AI tier" upsell. No feature gates between you and clean data.

// Why this matters2026 is the AI-native era. Your scraping API should be built for agents, not 2014-era tools.

No Hidden Fees, Ever.

Usage is fully transparent.

You see exactly which queries you ran, when, and what they cost. No mystery "infrastructure fees" or "premium proxy charges" buried in fine print.

// Why this mattersYou're building a business. You need infrastructure partners who are honest about cost.

// Founder note

Built by a team that's shipped developer tools for 10+ years. We use DataBlue ourselves every day to power our own products like Japan Pro. It's production-grade because our own revenue depends on it.

Plans for every workload

One credit balance for search, scraping, commerce, quick-commerce, ads, YouTube and App Store APIs. Choose a plan for your volume; each endpoint has its own billing unit and credit weight.

Paid plans start at USD 29 / month (Lite, billed monthly)

Example: Google SERP

Google SERP Lite: 1 credit per delivered result page. Google SERP Advanced: 2 credits per delivered result page. Multi-page requests are billed per delivered page.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Answers about API output, integration and billing.

DataBlue provides search, scrape, crawl, map and extraction APIs alongside commerce, quick-commerce, ads, YouTube and App Store data APIs. Explore /apis for supported endpoints and use /pricing#api-rates to compare billing units and credit weights. Output, supported locations and available fields depend on the endpoint.

Send a POST request to https://api.datablue.dev/v1/scrape with the target URL and the formats you want - plain `requests` or our Python SDK both work. You get back clean, structured JSON (markdown, links, headings, images, and AI-extracted structured data) with no HTML parsing. Copy the quickstart snippet above to run your first scrape in under a minute.

Clean, structured JSON for any page you scrape: markdown, rendered and raw HTML, links, headings, images, screenshots, and AI-extracted structured data. For the search endpoint you also get full SERP features (organic results, ads, knowledge panel, People Also Ask, and more). Every field is named, typed, and ready to use without parsing.

Three things. First, the credit rules are explicit: monthly plan credits reset each billing period, while top-up credits do not expire. Second, endpoint weights are visible before you run. Third, every plan ships with AI-ready output and an MCP server, not just enterprise tiers.

Your account pauses automatically - no overage charges, no surprise bills. Upgrade, add top-up credits, or wait for your paid plan renewal to resume.

Never. Only successful responses consume credits. Network timeouts, blocks, and CAPTCHA failures are retried for free until they succeed.

Yes. A real headless browser renders the page, executes JavaScript, and waits for content - including single-page apps and infinite scroll - before returning clean structured data. There's no headless browser for you to run or maintain.

Yes. Geo-target any scrape or search by country, city, and language, and choose mobile, desktop, or tablet rendering. For search, pass any Google domain (google.co.in, google.de, etc.) down to the city level.

Yes. Every request hits the live web by default. We don't serve cached results unless you explicitly opt in for cost savings on high-volume historical queries.

API request and response payloads are retained for a short operational window for debugging, abuse prevention, and support, then deleted or anonymized. See /legal/privacy-policy#retention for the published retention policy and /legal/security for security information.

Yes, instantly from your dashboard. No contracts and no cancellation fees. Monthly plan credits stop with the subscription; top-up credits remain available under the account credit policy.

Except where required by law or expressly stated, fees are non-refundable. Annual plans may be refundable within a stated window described at checkout. See /legal/terms-of-service for the published terms.

Google SERP Lite: 1 credit per delivered result page. Google SERP Advanced: 2 credits per delivered result page. Multi-page requests consume credits for each delivered billable page, not one flat charge per request. Other APIs have their own billing units and share the same credit balance. Standard, billed monthly at $59.00, includes 180,000 credits/month. Allocating all credits to one mode gives Lite: 180,000 result pages/mo ($0.328 / 1K result pages); Advanced: 90,000 result pages/mo ($0.656 / 1K result pages). Effective costs assume full use of included credits, exclude taxes and are not top-up prices.
