Pros

  • The free plan is a real free plan rather than a trial: 50 credits a month forever, no credit card, and the vendor's own comparison table ticks residential proxies, workflows, bulk runs, deep scraping, anti-bot and CAPTCHA handling and the REST API for it — most competitors gate the API and the proxies behind a paid tier
  • The credit model is published precisely enough to budget against: one page is one credit, ten rows is one credit, you pay whichever is higher, and every run shows its cost in the dashboard before it goes
  • Set a list limit higher than the list turns out to be and the unused credits come back automatically — the system only reserves the full amount during the run
  • 250+ prebuilt robots for named sites (Amazon, LinkedIn, Instagram, Google and more) plus 130+ ready integrations (Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, Make, Zapier, Pabbly, Amazon S3, webhooks) — record the task once and it runs, with nobody maintaining selectors
  • Premium sites are named rather than left vague — Amazon, Walmart, Costco, LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Google, Google Scholar, Realtor.ca and around twenty more, at 2 to 10 credits per run — so you can price your own use case before you buy
  • The comparison table is genuinely informative rather than decorative: it separates plan cost per credit from add-on cost per credit, marks credit top-ups as annual-only, and shows the Professional ladder reaching 360,000 credits a year
  • The annual discount is real and larger than the badge admits: Personal is $228 a year against $576 billed monthly, a 60.4% saving
  • The managed Premium tier publishes a 98% data-accuracy SLA and volume pricing "from $0.010 a credit" — one of the few claims on the site that nothing else on the site contradicts
  • Security posture is checkable and specific: SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA badges on the pricing page, a public trust centre at trust.browse.ai, AWS US datacentres, TLS 1.2, and recorded passwords encrypted with AES-256 that the support team can never read in the clear
  • G2, where the profile is claimed, carries it at 4.8 out of 5 from 61 reviews — 57 five-star and 4 four-star, and not a single one-star or two-star review; the site itself claims 770,000+ users

Cons

  • The annual discount is mislabelled: the Annual button says "Save 20%" and the Personal card says "saves $120 a year", when the real gap is $576 against $228 — 60.4%. The same footnote on Professional ("saves $216") is correct. Do the arithmetic on your own tier rather than reading the badge
  • Annual and monthly do not buy the same thing: on Personal, annual delivers 12,000 credits upfront for $228 while monthly delivers 12 × 2,000 credits for $576, usable 2,000 at a time. Picking a mode off the card price gives you a sixth of the allowance
  • Credit top-ups are annual-only and cost more than the plan's own credits on Personal ($0.024 against $0.019). The monthly view of the add-ons panel reads "Not available", so under-buying on monthly means changing plan, which charges the new plan in full immediately and resets the billing date
  • "60-day refund guarantee" is a conditional guarantee: 60 days for a renewal you have not used credits on since, 30 days for a new annual subscription reported broken and unresolved, 14 days for a monthly one. Cancellation is immediate, but unused time is not prorated
  • Credits never roll over on any self-serve tier — "Unused credits will also be reset and will not be carried over" — unless you upgrade mid-cycle
  • The usage ceiling is not published as a number: the Terms reserve the right to disable an account whose usage "significantly exceeds the average usage of other customers of the Services". Normal workloads never touch it, but it is worth knowing before you put a pipeline on the product

Pricing

Free

$0 free forever, no credit card

  • 50 credits a month, 2 domains, 3 users, **unlimited robots**, and the vendor's own comparison table ticks residential proxies, workflows, bulk runs, deep scraping, formula columns, anti-bot and CAPTCHA handling and the REST API for this tier — most competitors gate the API and the proxies behind a paid plan
  • Self support; monitoring frequency on Free is the same "Every minute" the paid tiers get, so it is not a deliberately slowed-down tier
  • Genuinely requires no card, but you do need an account and the browser extension before any robot can be recorded — there is no anonymous extraction route

Personal

$19 per month billed annually at $228 a year, or $48 per month billed monthly

  • 12,000 credits a year on annual billing, all upfront — or 2,000 credits a month on monthly billing
  • 5 domains, 3 users, unlimited robots, standard support
  • Both billing modes cost **the same $0.019 per credit**; the difference is volume and delivery. $228 once for 12,000 credits against $576 a year for 2,000 a month — a sixth of the effective rate for the same annual volume, and annual credits can be spent at any time rather than month by month
  • Listed with "60-day refund guarantee" under the price; it is a conditional guarantee (60 days for an unused renewal, 30 days for a new annual plan, 14 days monthly), worth reading before you buy

Professional

$69 per month billed annually at $828 a year, or $87 per month billed monthly

  • 60,000 credits a year on annual billing, all upfront — or 5,000 credits a month on monthly billing
  • 10 domains, 10 users, priority support, plus the rest of the ladder: 120,000 credits at $129/mo, 240,000 at $239/mo, 360,000 at $319/mo — credits grow faster than price, and cost per credit falls to $0.0138
  • Setup and onboarding services available from $399, annual plans only and Professional or Premium only
  • Credit top-ups at $0.017 to $0.013 per credit, annual only; on this tier the top-up rate is roughly the plan's own rate

Premium

Starting at $500 per month billed annually

  • Fully managed: AI experts and data engineers design the pipeline, build the agents, integrate into your systems and transform the data
  • Publishes a "98% data-accuracy SLA" and "$0.01 starting price per credit", volume priced "from $0.010 a credit"
  • The only tier with a "Dedicated Account Manager", "Custom maintenance", "Product matching", "Migration from another tool", "On-time delivery SLA" and "Monthly performance reports"

Add-ons, on any paid plan

$4 / $0.024 per month and per credit, annual plans only

  • Extra domains: $4/mo on Personal and $2.40/mo on Professional, both "paid annually"; on monthly billing the same add-on is $5/mo and $3/mo
  • Credit top-ups: $0.024 per credit on Personal and $0.017 to $0.013 on Professional, minimum 1,000 credits, "Annual plans only" — the monthly view simply reads "Not available"
  • Setup and onboarding from $399, on Professional and Premium annual plans only

Who it is for

  • Non-technical teams who need a repeating extraction or a change monitor and have nobody to maintain selectors — the record-the-task model is the point, and the prebuilt robots cover 250+ sites
  • Buyers who will do the arithmetic before choosing a billing mode: annual is the one to take if you can plan a year of volume, because the same headline rate buys six times the credits, spendable at any time
  • Anyone whose target sites are Amazon, Walmart, Costco, LinkedIn, Instagram, X or Google, because Browse AI names those as Premium sites at 2–10 credits a run rather than leaving the surcharge to be discovered
  • Teams that need the API on a small budget — it is included on the free plan, which is unusual in this category
  • Buyers who care about a stated accuracy number, since the managed Premium tier is the only tier with a 98% data-accuracy SLA
  • Anyone who wants to evaluate before paying: 50 credits a month costs nothing and needs no card, and the dashboard tells you what a run will cost before it goes
  • Anyone who wants extraction and monitoring without writing code — the recorder plus 130+ integrations covers most "scrape it and put it somewhere" jobs
  • Buyers who will pay annually: annual is not just cheaper within a tier, it is also the only mode that can top up credits
