No status page, security.txt or SDKs, the MCP server is a preview with 373 tools, and the product is five weeks old.\n\n**ScraperAPI.** One GET request with a key and a URL returns a page, and the MCP server's 28 tools carry read-only and destructive hints. No status page, OpenAPI file, security.txt or certification was found, and the documented default puts the API key in the URL query string.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### ScrapeAtlas\n\n1. Send the key as `x-api-key` on https://api.scrapeatlas.com and check `status` on every HTTP 200; `partial` is usable data with `coverage.warnings`, `failed` and `challenged` carry `failure.code`.\n2. Retry only on `upstream_rate_limited`, `timeout` and `busy`, after the `retry-after` on a 429. Stay under 120 requests a minute and 4 concurrent per account.\n3. Pass the returned `cursor` back unchanged for the next page, and use `since` and `until` (ISO 8601 or Unix seconds) where listed; each page costs another credit.\n4. Each platform has its own response schema, so read the endpoint's response fields before mapping; unknown values are `null`, never 0.\n5. For MCP, connect to https://api.scrapeatlas.com/mcp over Streamable HTTP with `Authorization: Bearer` and expect 373 tools; the two account tools and failed calls cost 0 credits.\n\n### ScraperAPI\n\n1. Set the client timeout to 70 seconds. The API retries for that long before it returns 500, and a request cancelled earlier is still charged\n2. Send the key as the `x-sapi-api_key` header to keep it out of URLs and logs\n3. Pass `max_cost` on each request, or call `/account/urlcost` first, because domain and anti-bot surcharges vary from 1 to 75 credits\n4. Use `output_format=markdown` or `text` to cut response size, and `autoparse=true` only on supported domains\n5. On 429 reduce concurrency to the plan limit (5 on Free, 20 on Hobby). The request is rejected, not queued\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, ScrapeAtlas or ScraperAPI?\n\nScrapeAtlas scores 63 (B) on agent readiness against ScraperAPI's 52.1 (D), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do ScrapeAtlas and ScraperAPI need an API key?\n\nScrapeAtlas takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. ScraperAPI needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call ScrapeAtlas and ScraperAPI without installing anything?\n\nYes. ScrapeAtlas has a hosted endpoint at https://api.scrapeatlas.com and ScraperAPI at https://api.scraperapi.com.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/scrapeatlas-vs-scraperapi.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/scrapeatlas-vs-scraperapi.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"scrapeatlas\", \"b\": \"scraperapi\"}`.
