Technical
Yes. The free tier includes 10 scrapes per minute, 10 maps per minute, 5 searches per minute, and 1 crawl per minute. No credit card required to start. You can build and test your agent before upgrading to a paid plan.
Firecrawl returns clean markdown and structured JSON, optimized for LLMs. All content is pre-processed to remove ads, navigation, footers, and boilerplate. Your agent gets only the signal, not the noise. You can also request raw HTML if needed.
Integration
Absolutely. Firecrawl powers AI agents and code editors at companies like Replit. Our infrastructure handles millions of requests daily with 99.9% uptime (status.firecrawl.dev). Start on the free tier and scale to production without changing your code.
