ScrapingAnt

Verified Jul 2026

ScrapingAnt combines headless-Chrome rendering, a pool of 3 million-plus rotating residential and datacenter proxies, and natural-language AI extraction that turns a plain-English description of the data you want into structured JSON. It also ships an MCP server for agent clients like Claude Code and Cursor, and includes 10,000 free credits every month with no card required.
