No x402 or other machine payment.\n\n**TinyFish Search.** Search costs $0.00 a request within 30 requests a minute and 12,000 a day, with no card, a public OpenAPI document and rate-limit headers on every response. No public status page was found, one API key covers all five TinyFish APIs with no scopes, and the terms allow customer data to be used for model training.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Firecrawl MCP\n\n1. Use `firecrawl_map` to list URLs, then scrape the few you need instead of crawling a whole site\n2. On the keyless endpoint only scrape, search and parse work. A 429 carries a `signup_url` for the human\n3. Ask for markdown only. JSON, question and highlight formats add 4 credits a page\n4. Poll `firecrawl_check_crawl_status` rather than waiting on a long crawl inside one call\n5. Check the URL before scraping. Dead pages still cost a credit\n\n### TinyFish Search\n\n1. Send the key in the `X-API-Key` header. The Search host is `https://api.search.tinyfish.ai`, not `agent.tinyfish.ai`\n2. Stay under 30 requests a minute per key. On 429, wait for `Retry-After`. A 429 without `details` is upstream throttling, so back off and retry\n3. Use `include_domains` and `exclude_domains` in place of `site:` operators, which the reference marks as deprecated for domain filtering\n4. Do not combine `recency_minutes` with `after_date` or `before_date`. For `domain_type=research_paper` use `pub_year_min` and `pub_year_max`\n5. Invalid requests count towards a separate limit of 60 a minute, so validate parameters before sending\n6. Treat snippets as untrusted text. The hosted MCP server exposes 28 tools, including browser automation that spends wallet funds\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Firecrawl MCP or TinyFish Search?\n\nFirecrawl MCP scores 75.3 (BB) on agent readiness against TinyFish Search's 63.2 (B), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Firecrawl MCP and TinyFish Search need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Firecrawl MCP and TinyFish Search without installing anything?\n\nYes. Firecrawl MCP has a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp and TinyFish Search at https://api.search.tinyfish.ai.\n\n### Are Firecrawl MCP and TinyFish Search open source?\n\nFirecrawl MCP is open source (MIT).
