Firecrawl is now available as an official Replit Connector, letting builders add state-of-the-art web search, scraping, and browser interaction to their apps with a single click.

Millions of builders use Replit to take apps from idea to production, creating everything from internal dashboards and AI sales assistants to customer portals and full-stack products.

Now, Replit builders can connect their apps to the live web through Firecrawl, directly from their workspace.

With access to high-quality data from across the web, those apps become even more powerful: dashboards can track market shifts as they happen, sales tools can enrich leads with current company information, and support products can answer questions from the latest published documentation.

Bring live web data into your Replit apps

Once the Firecrawl Connector is enabled, Replit Agent can build apps that:

  • /search the live web to surface the most relevant sources and excerpts
  • /scrape any web page into clean, LLM-ready data
  • /interact with websites to click, fill forms, and navigate multi-step flows
  • /monitor individual pages, entire sites, or the web for meaningful updates
  • /crawl a website to discover and scrape its reachable pages
  • /parse files like PDFs and Word documents into Markdown or JSON

Together, these endpoints expand the kinds of apps you can build in Replit and add powerful web capabilities to the ones you already have. Simply describe the web data you need, and Replit Agent can use Firecrawl as part of the implementation.

How the Firecrawl Connector works

Open the Integrations section in a Replit workspace (Core, Pro or Enterprise plan required) and search for Firecrawl. Once the Connector is active in the workspace, Replit Agent can use it while building your app.

There are two ways to handle usage:

  1. Use Replit's default configuration. The connector runs on Replit's API key and usage is billed to your Replit account per request, no Firecrawl account or key needed.
  2. Use custom configuration. Open Manage, choose Custom configurations, then either paste your own Firecrawl API key or claim the 10,000 free Firecrawl credits offer, which provisions a new key for you.

Build a competitor analysis app

In the video above, I asked Replit Agent to build a competitor analysis app using the built-in Firecrawl Connector.

The app uses /search to identify up to five competitors and surface relevant sources, then /scrape to gather useful context from those pages. Replit turns that data into a simple interface with company names, summaries, and images.

In our Spotify example, /search surfaces Apple Music, Deezer, Amazon Music, and Tidal as competitors. The app then uses /scrape to collect relevant context from each company's website and presents it as summaries and key company details.

Build a web monitoring product

The second example is a keyword monitoring app built with /monitor. Users can add a keyword, choose the websites they want to watch, set a scan interval, and deploy the monitor from one interface.

The app runs checks automatically and also lets users trigger a manual scan whenever they want, turning live changes across the web into a monitoring product they can configure themselves.

Get started

  1. Open Integrations in a Replit workspace (Core, Pro or Enterprise plan required)
  2. Search for Firecrawl and connect it to the workspace
  3. Use Replit credits, or provision a new Firecrawl API key under Manage → Custom configuration
  4. Ask Replit Agent to use Firecrawl to gather the web data you need
