## Which one, for what

### ScrapeAtlas (B)

Good for: Agents that need structured public data from a named social, video, forum, marketplace or prediction-market platform, such as a creator's profile and recent posts, a thread's comments, a product's reviews or a market's order book, paid per successful request without a subscription.

Ahead on:
- Schema & documentation, 88 against 79
- Payments & pricing, 55 against 40
- Transparency & trust, 61 against 54

Watch for: No status page or incident history was found, and the terms promise no uptime, throughput or continued availability of an endpoint

### Scrapewise (B)

Good for: Agents that need e-commerce prices, Amazon and Google data, or recurring price monitoring with cleaning and product matching, paid per page in euros.

Ahead on:
- Agent ergonomics, 86 against 76
- Maintenance & community, 79 against 70

Watch for: No status page, SLA, security.txt, disclosure policy or certification found

## Verdicts

**ScrapeAtlas.** An OpenAPI 3.1 file with 386 operations, typed parameters and a uniform failure object, published limits of 120 requests a minute and 4 concurrent, and 1 credit per successful request with failed calls free. No status page, security.txt or SDKs, the MCP server is a preview with 373 tools, and the product is five weeks old.

**Scrapewise.** Agents get 14 priced MCP tools by default, each with a free `quote_only` price check and idempotency keys, read-only or full-access keys, and public euro prices from €0.15 per 1,000 plain pages. There is no status page, SLA or vulnerability disclosure policy, and the terms claim ownership of all scraped data under a perpetual licence.

## Before you call either

### ScrapeAtlas

1. 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`.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Each platform has its own response schema, so read the endpoint's response fields before mapping; unknown values are `null`, never 0.
5. 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.

### Scrapewise

1. Call each paid tool with `quote_only: true` first, then repeat with the same `idempotency_key` so a retry is charged once
2. Connect to `https://mcp.scrapewise.ai/mcp?toolsets=outcome,admin` to build scrapers; a misspelt `toolsets` is ignored silently and leaves the 14 data tools
3. Use an LLM_READ key unless the task needs paid tools or writes, since LLM_FULL has no per-tool consent
4. Treat 402 WALLET_INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE as final and ask the user to top up; on 429 wait for Retry-After, and on 429 cost_exceeded wait for the next hour
5. Scrape many addresses with one `scrapewise_run_scraper_url_list` call (up to 5,000) and retry with the same name, never one scraper per address
