Website screenshot API alternatives
Price and billing model of screenshot APIs next to Ambolt's screenshot Actor. A neutral spec table with the date of each price.
Screenshot services differ mostly in billing model: monthly plans with included renders, or a price per render. This table lists what each publishes; prices are public list prices at the date shown and can change.
| Service | List price per screenshot | Billing model | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| ScreenshotOne (Scale plan) | about $0.004 | Monthly plan with included volume | Image, PDF |
| Ambolt Website Screenshot Scraper | $0.005 per page plus $0.002 per run | Pay per event on Apify; failed pages are not charged; no subscription | PNG, JPEG, PDF with SHA-256 hash, signed download link |
Prices are public list prices noted on 2026-10-03 and may have changed; check each provider's pricing page. Ambolt batches up to 20 URLs per run, which spreads the per-run charge. It uses a real Chromium browser; some sites with bot protection refuse automated browsers, and those pages are not charged.
