Anakin

What is Anakin?

Anakin is a web scraping API and browser automation platform built for AI agents, LLM applications, and data teams that need structured, real-time access to the web. Instead of stitching together proxies, headless browsers, and CAPTCHA-solving services, Anakin gives developers one API to search, scrape, crawl, browse, and act on any website, returning clean, structured data instead of raw HTML. Core capabilities: URL Scraper: turn any single page or batch of URLs into clean Markdown, JSON, or HTML. Cached results cost zero credits. Wire: extend automation to sites with no public API at all. Wire reverse-engineers the underlying network calls (XHR, GraphQL, internal REST) and exposes them as clean, managed endpoints. With a catalog of 1,000+ websites and 5,000+ pre-built actions, agents can read and write structured data from the web's most important sites without a browser, a DOM parser, or brittle selectors. AI Visibility: track how your brand or topic actually appears across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overview, built for teams optimizing for AI search (GEO) rather than just traditional SEO. Monitoring: schedule continuous checks on any page, site, or Wire action. AI filters the noise so you only hear about changes that actually matter, delivered via signed webhooks or email. Crawl: a full web crawling API for pulling structured data across multiple pages, with pattern filtering to target exactly what you need. Map: discover every URL on a site via sitemap and link extraction, before you scrape a single page. Search API: AI-powered web search with citations, returned synchronously for real-time agent workflows. Agentic Search: a multi-stage automated research pipeline for deeper, multi-step questions that a single search can't answer. Browser API: a stealth, fingerprint-masked headless browser, controllable via Playwright or Puppeteer, for JavaScript-heavy sites and anti-bot bypass. Browser Sessions: encrypted, reusable authenticated sessions, so agents can stay logged in across multi-step scraping jobs without re-authenticating. Every job supports geo-targeted proxies across 207 countries, webhook notifications instead of polling, and SDKs in Python and JavaScript/Node.js, plus native REST/cURL support. Pricing runs from a free tier through to enterprise.
