XCrawl is a web data API for AI builders: scrape, crawl, map and search the web and get clean JSON or Markdown back, with proxies and JS rendering handled.
About
XCrawl gives developers one API for getting web data into AI apps. Scrape a single URL into Markdown, JSON, HTML or a screenshot; crawl a whole site with depth and scope rules; map every URL on a domain; or pull structured results from Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo and other engines. Rendering, proxy rotation and retries run on XCrawl's side, so teams building RAG pipelines, AI agents and automations get clean, LLM-ready output without maintaining headless browsers or proxy pools. SDKs for Python and Node.js, a CLI, an MCP server and an n8n node are available, and new accounts start with 1,000 free credits, no credit card required.

- Collect Google and other search engine results as structured SERP data
- Export all discoverable URLs and sitemaps to map complete site structure
- Rotate global residential proxies automatically with built-in retries

What is XCrawl?
XCrawl is an AI-ready web scraping API that converts websites into structured JSON, Markdown, HTML, and screenshots. It includes built-in proxies, crawling, and SERP data for developers.
