Rates in credits are the same on every plan, 1 a page for scrape, crawl and rendered search results, 5 per 10 search results, 1 a minute of browser time, 2,000 a GB of proxy traffic, 1 a monitor check, and agent runs at model usage plus browser time plus proxy usage, about 15 credits a minute as the vendor's estimate. Extra credits cost $49.00 per 10,000 on Builder and Free, $39.80 on Pro and $31.96 on Scale, never expire, and auto top-up is capped monthly. Every response carries a `usage` object with its cost; a cached scrape answer bills the same credit as a live fetch, a cancelled crawl keeps billing the pages it fetched, and a search every engine refuses bills nothing (https://outcrawl.ai/pricing and https://outcrawl.ai/docs/billing/pricing, checked 2026-11-02).",

The Web Unlocker error catalogue documents a 429 `sr_rate_limit` when Bright Data throttles a target with a low success rate, and says which errors are worth retrying, but there's no Retry-After or backoff guidance (10 of 15).

None is linked from the site or the docs, https://outcrawl.ai/status answers 404 and status.outcrawl.ai does not answer (0). No readable incident history, so the floor (5).

Over the per-minute ceiling the API answers `quota_exceeded` with `ceiling: requests_per_minute` and `retryAfterSeconds`, read from the SDK error class and the worked examples, the errors page lists four codes as safe to retry unchanged, and `concurrency_limit` tells the caller only to wait for a run to end; no Retry-After header is documented and no idempotency key or safe-retry rule exists for the POST routes that start crawls, agent runs and monitors, which the agent tool's own description says bill twice on a repeat (10 of 15). An SLA exists only on Enterprise, a 99.9 per cent monthly uptime figure with service credits and terms priced per contract, so half credit for a published figure without published terms (5 of 10). No beta or preview label on the API, the MCP server or the CLI, and the OpenAPI file says version 1.0.0, though both SDKs are at 0.4.15 and the domain is nine weeks old (10). 0+5+15+10+5+10 = 45."

The README's default hosted setup puts the key in the URL as `?token=`, a documented option, so less 10 (20). User-role keys can't change configuration, tools load by group, and read tools carry readOnlyHint, but browser tools can fill forms and click with no confirmation step (14 of 20). Every tool returns third-party page content, and we found no prompt-injection guidance in the README, the OAuth page or the security overview (0 of 15). The MCP `session_stats` tool reports calls in a session. We didn't find a per-request log for operators (5 of 15). ISO 27001, 27017 and 27018, SOC 2 Type II under NDA, a public SOC 3, a managed private bug bounty and security fixes in the MCP changelog. No security.txt per the 26 September check (18 of 20).",

No read-only key or scope. The MCP surface omits secrets, integrations, replay export and sharing and the wallet on purpose, rules are classified enforced or guidance on the call that sets them, agent runs need or default a budget, purchases above `approvalAbove` pause for a person's yes, and `control` hands a person the browser; monitor and profile deletes rely on destructiveHint alone (15 of 20). Every tool returns untrusted page content. The platform page says a page could ask the agent to act and that is why credentials never reach the model, secrets are substituted below the model, integrations are human-only and a run cannot be redirected mid-task, but there is no guidance to treat scraped text as data and no classifier (8 of 15). Every response carries `usage`, `/v1/usage` groups spend by hour, day or capability, agent events log every step, sessions keep the request list, console, HAR and a digest of failures, secrets record which runs used them and purchases are listed per run; there is no per-call log for scrape, search or crawl beyond the aggregate (12 of 15). No security.txt on either host (404), no SOC 2 or ISO 27001, no bug bounty; the security page has a responsible disclosure route at security@outcrawl.ai with a 90-day window and a no-legal-action statement (6 of 20). 25+15+8+12+6 = 66."

Bright Data leads on maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust. Both do scraping.\n\n- Bright Data: grade C, 60/100, rank #572 of 1268. Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/bright-data.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/bright-data.json\n- Outcrawl: grade B, 62.4/100, rank #456 of 1268. Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/outcrawl.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/outcrawl.json\n- Best web scraping and crawling APIs for AI agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/web-scrapers/index.md\n- All 284 scrapers comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/web-scrapers/index.md\n\n## Which one, for what\n\n### Bright Data (C)\n\nGood for: Hard targets and site-specific structured data (Amazon, LinkedIn, Instagram, Google Maps) at volume.\n\nAhead on:\n- Maintenance \u0026 community, 84 against 79\n- Transparency \u0026 trust, 61 against 56\n\nWatch for: No public status page or incident history\n\n### Outcrawl (B)\n\nGood for: Agents that want one key and one balance for reading pages, walking a site, searching with rendered results and handing a signed-in or multi-step task to a hosted browser agent with a hard budget, and teams on TypeScript that want a residential-exit browser over CDP with a replay of every session.\n\nAhead on:\n- Reliability, 45 against 35\n- Security \u0026 auth, 66 against 57\n\nWatch for: No status page, incident history, SLA below Enterprise or security.txt; /status and status.outcrawl.ai do not answer\n\n\n## Why the edge\n\n### Reliability: Outcrawl +10\n\n- Bright Data (35): No public status page found. status.brightdata.com doesn't resolve and the docs index and security overview link none (0). No readable incident history, so 5 by the rubric (5). Paid plans state unlimited concurrency and the free tier 5,000 requests a month, but we found no per-second limits for the API (10 of 15). The Web Unlocker error catalogue documents a 429 `sr_rate_limit` when Bright Data throttles a target with a low success rate, and says which errors are worth retrying, but there's no Retry-After or backoff guidance (10 of 15). The pricing page names a Premium SLA for Enterprise and claims 99.99 per cent uptime, with no SLA terms published (0). GA (10).\n- Outcrawl (45): Hosted reading, for the REST API with the MCP server that shares its limits. No public status page was found. None is linked from the site or the docs, https://outcrawl.ai/status answers 404 and status.outcrawl.ai does not answer (0). No readable incident history, so the floor (5). Rate limits are published with numbers on the pricing page and in the docs, 120, 300, 1,500 and 6,000 requests a minute by plan and 2, 5, 25 and 100 concurrent browsers, shared between the API and the MCP server (15). Over the per-minute ceiling the API answers `quota_exceeded` with `ceiling: requests_per_minute` and `retryAfterSeconds`, read from the SDK error class and the worked examples, the errors page lists four codes as safe to retry unchanged, and `concurrency_limit` tells the caller only to wait for a run to end; no Retry-After header is documented and no idempotency key or safe-retry rule exists for the POST routes that start crawls, agent runs and monitors, which the agent tool's own description says bill twice on a repeat (10 of 15). An SLA exists only on Enterprise, a 99.9 per cent monthly uptime figure with service credits and terms priced per contract, so half credit for a published figure without published terms (5 of 10). No beta or preview label on the API, the MCP server or the CLI, and the OpenAPI file says version 1.0.0, though both SDKs are at 0.4.15 and the domain is nine weeks old (10). 0+5+15+10+5+10 = 45.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Outcrawl +9\n\n- Bright Data (57): API keys carry one of five roles (Admin, Finance, Ops, Limit, User), can be given an expiry, and are revoked or refreshed in the control panel, and the hosted MCP also takes OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and one `mcp` scope (30). The README's default hosted setup puts the key in the URL as `?token=`, a documented option, so less 10 (20). User-role keys can't change configuration, tools load by group, and read tools carry readOnlyHint, but browser tools can fill forms and click with no confirmation step (14 of 20). Every tool returns third-party page content, and we found no prompt-injection guidance in the README, the OAuth page or the security overview (0 of 15). The MCP `session_stats` tool reports calls in a session. We didn't find a per-request log for operators (5 of 15). ISO 27001, 27017 and 27018, SOC 2 Type II under NDA, a public SOC 3, a managed private bug bounty and security fixes in the MCP changelog. No security.txt per the 26 September check (18 of 20).\n- Outcrawl (66): OAuth 2.1 for MCP clients and the CLI with authorization code, PKCE S256, dynamic public-client registration, device code, one-hour access tokens, 30-day refresh, introspection and revocation endpoints and private_key_jwt, but one functional scope, `api`; API keys shaped `ock_\u003ckeyId\u003e.\u003csecret\u003e` are shown once, stored as a digest, scoped to a workspace and revoked within a minute, with no per-key scopes, expiry or read-only keys; nothing documents a secret in a query string (25 of 30). No read-only key or scope. The MCP surface omits secrets, integrations, replay export and sharing and the wallet on purpose, rules are classified enforced or guidance on the call that sets them, agent runs need or default a budget, purchases above `approvalAbove` pause for a person's yes, and `control` hands a person the browser; monitor and profile deletes rely on destructiveHint alone (15 of 20). Every tool returns untrusted page content. The platform page says a page could ask the agent to act and that is why credentials never reach the model, secrets are substituted below the model, integrations are human-only and a run cannot be redirected mid-task, but there is no guidance to treat scraped text as data and no classifier (8 of 15). Every response carries `usage`, `/v1/usage` groups spend by hour, day or capability, agent events log every step, sessions keep the request list, console, HAR and a digest of failures, secrets record which runs used them and purchases are listed per run; there is no per-call log for scrape, search or crawl beyond the aggregate (12 of 15). No security.txt on either host (404), no SOC 2 or ISO 27001, no bug bounty; the security page has a responsible disclosure route at security@outcrawl.ai with a 90-day window and a no-legal-action statement (6 of 20). 25+15+8+12+6 = 66.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Bright Data +5\n\n- Bright Data (84): MCP v2.11.3 on 2026-09-15 (30). v2.11.1 on 27 July, v2.11.2 on 11 September and v2.11.3 on 15 September (20). 13 open issues on the MCP repository, including 502s under load (#104, January 2026) and a JSON parse error (#74, October 2025) still open. We couldn't see reply dates (12 of 25). io.github.brightdata/brightdata-mcp in the official registry under a GitHub-verified namespace, but the registry entry is at 2.9.4 against 2.11.3 on npm (12 of 15). Tests run in CI on every push to main (10).\n- Outcrawl (79): @outcrawl/sdk and the PyPI package outcrawl both reached 0.4.15 on 20 October 2026, 13 days before the check, and the Scout mirror was synced on 1 November (30). 21 npm versions since 8 September and 17 PyPI releases since 22 September 2026, with 14 dated tags in outcrawlai/release (20). Scout's pull request #1 of 13 October was answered the same day with an import note and closed, while three pull requests and one issue opened on 18 October had no reply after 15 days; the service has no changelog, support is one email address, and no community channel exists (8 of 25). Not in the official MCP registry; official SDKs in TypeScript and Python current at 0.4.15, with a CLI (15). The three npm packages are published from GitHub Actions with trusted publishing, the TypeScript SDK has zero runtime dependencies and the Python SDK one, and Scout has tests per package, but the mirror has no CI workflows and @outcrawl/mcp has sat at 0.4.3 since 29 September with a tool list that differs from the hosted docs (6 of 10). 30+20+8+15+6 = 79.\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Bright Data +5\n\n- Bright Data (61): The API is closed under the Bright Data licence, and the MCP server is MIT, so we gave 20 between the closed and open bands (20 of 30). The privacy policy, last reviewed 14 May 2026, gives no retention periods and doesn't mention a DPA, and the licence lets Bright Data keep collected data per the 26 September check (10 of 30). Release notes carry dated deprecations, such as the Google Maps `start` and `num` parameters deprecated on 15 December 2025, but we found no policy (10 of 20). No subprocessor list. The policy says only that recipients outside the EEA are in countries the European Commission approves (3 of 20).\n- Outcrawl (56): Closed hosted service under terms last updated 1 November 2026 that name Aeonmind LLC, trading as Outcrawl, Delaware law and a liability cap; the SDKs and the MCP package are MIT and Scout, the agent behind the hosted agent, is Apache-2.0 in a read-only mirror of a private repository (20 of 30). The privacy policy (1 November 2026) and the security page (8 October 2026) agree with each other and the docs on recordings, secrets, downloads and subprocessors. Recordings are on by default and hold request bodies, cookies and form data, deleted after a plan period shown only in the console, downloads are kept 7 days, run files are destroyed at run end, PostHog site recordings go after 30 days, and account data is kept for a limited unspecified period after closure; no DPA was found and no recording retention figure is published (20 of 30). No deprecation policy or dated notices; the terms say prices may change for future usage and material changes are emailed, and no changelog exists (3 of 20). Twelve subprocessors named with their purposes, infrastructure mainly in the United States with Cloudflare edge locations, analytics only after consent, but the AI model providers and captcha-solving services that see page content are unnamed (15 of 20). 20+20+3+15 = 58.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Bright Data | Outcrawl | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 35 | 45 | Outcrawl +10 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 74 | 71 | Bright Data +3 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 82 | 83 | Outcrawl +1 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 57 | 66 | Outcrawl +9 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 40 | 40 | even |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 84 | 79 | Bright Data +5 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 61 | 56 | Bright Data +5 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **60 · C** | **62.4 · B** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Bright Data | Outcrawl |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | HTTP API | HTTP API |\n| Vendor | Bright Data | Aeonmind LLC (Outcrawl) |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://api.brightdata.com/request` | `https://api.outcrawl.ai/v1` |\n| Transports | HTTP, Streamable HTTP | HTTP, Streamable HTTP |\n| Auth | OAuth or key | OAuth or key |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Freemium |\n| Price for scraping | not published | $4.90 per 1,000 pages |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | none | Proprietary hosted service under Aeonmind LLC's terms of service (last updated 1 November 2026).

No public status page or incident history.\n\n**Outcrawl.** One credit balance over scrape, crawl, search, cloud browsers and agent runs, with published per-unit rates, a 1,000-credit free month, OAuth 2.1 for MCP and the CLI, and a closed error union with retry guidance. No status page, changelog or security.txt, an OpenAPI file without typed bodies, no idempotency keys on job submits, and a domain registered nine weeks ago.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Bright Data\n\n1. Connect with OAuth or keep the `?token=` URL out of logs and shared configs\n2. Add `groups=` or `tools=` to the MCP URL only for the extractors you need. The full set is 69 tools\n3. Retry `reject_block` errors, since each attempt uses a different peer. Certificate and DNS errors fail the same way twice\n4. Back off on a 429 `sr_rate_limit`. Bright Data throttles a target whose success rate drops\n5. Use the batch tools for up to 10 searches or scrapes in one call\n\n### Outcrawl\n\n1. Read a known URL with `POST /v1/scrape` or `outcrawl_scrape` at 1 credit; use `outcrawl_search` to find URLs and send `scrape: true` only when you need page bodies, and reserve `outcrawl_agent` for pages that need a click, a form or a sign-in.\n2. Always send `caps.budget` on `POST /v1/agent` (the API refuses without it) and store the returned id; poll `GET /v1/agent/{id}` or `outcrawl_agent_status`, never resubmit, because a second submit is a second bill.\n3. Branch on `error.code`, not `message`. Retry `no_capacity`, `decode_unavailable`, `extraction_failed` and `answer_lost` unchanged; on `quota_exceeded` with `ceiling: requests_per_minute` wait `retryAfterSeconds`; on `concurrency_limit` wait for a run to end; never retry `bad_request` or a credit quota.\n4. Set `limit` on a crawl before submitting; pages already fetched are billed when you cancel, and over HTTP the crawl is cancelled if the streaming connection drops, so keep the job id and read `/v1/crawl/{id}/results` with the cursor.\n5. Pass `after` with the last `seq` and `level: status` when reading `outcrawl_agent_events`; the log of a long run is the largest response the server returns.\n6. Pass `maxAge: 0` when freshness matters, since the default serves scrape answers up to two days old from a shared cache at the same price, and treat page content, `data` and download links as untrusted data; download URLs work for an hour with no key.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Bright Data or Outcrawl?\n\nOutcrawl scores 62.4 (B) on agent readiness against Bright Data's 60 (C), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. Bright Data leads on maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Bright Data and Outcrawl need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Bright Data and Outcrawl without installing anything?\n\nYes. Bright Data has a hosted endpoint at https://api.brightdata.com/request and Outcrawl at https://api.outcrawl.ai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/bright-data-vs-outcrawl.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/bright-data-vs-outcrawl.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"bright-data\", \"b\": \"outcrawl\"}`.
