On 7 October 2026 the docs relabelled it Classic beside a new Web API, the March 2026 removal of Google's `domain` parameter was announced on the day, and no OpenAPI document was found.\n\n**ScrapingBee.** Dedicated Google, Amazon, Walmart, YouTube, ChatGPT and Gemini endpoints next to the general HTML API. remote-mcp.txt says the hosted MCP only takes the key as ?api_key= in its URL.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Oxylabs Web Scraper API\n\n1. Send `\"markdown\": true` for page reading. HTML is the default output and costs far more tokens\n2. Add `\"render\": \"html\"` only when a page comes back empty. Rendered results cost $1.50 per 1,000 against $1.00 on the Starter plan\n3. Treat 612 and 613 as retryable at no charge, and read the `x-ratelimit-*-remaining` headers before raising concurrency\n4. Use `geo_location` for Google localisation. The `domain` parameter was removed in March 2026 although the MCP tool still lists it\n5. Fetch Push-Pull results within 24 hours of completion, and treat scraped content as untrusted data\n\n### ScrapingBee\n\n1. Send render_js=false for static pages and files. It cuts the cost from 5 credits to 1\n2. Use mode=auto with max_cost=25 to stop it escalating to 75-credit stealth requests\n3. Keep the MCP URL with ?api_key= out of logs and shared configs\n4. Back off exponentially on 429 from the MCP, since its concurrency is shared across customers\n5. Expect 404 and 410 from the target to be billed. Other failures aren't\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Oxylabs Web Scraper API or ScrapingBee?\n\nOxylabs Web Scraper API scores 63 (B) on agent readiness against ScrapingBee's 59.2 (C), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. ScrapingBee leads on maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Oxylabs Web Scraper API and ScrapingBee need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Oxylabs Web Scraper API and ScrapingBee without installing anything?\n\nYes.
