About Gaffa is a web scraping and browser automation API that gives developers full, real-browser control with a single API call no headless browsers, proxies, CAPTCHA handling, or scaling infrastructure to manage. JavaScript rendering is handled by default, so pages load exactly as they would for a real visitor. Gaffa supports web scraping, AI-powered structured data extraction, screenshot capture, PDF export, infinite-scroll handling, form filling, and converting any webpage into clean, LLM-ready Markdown for AI and RAG pipelines. A rotating residential proxy network ensures reliable access across geographies with automatic anti-bot bypass. Credits are charged only for actual browser execution time and bandwidth used, with no fixed infrastructure costs.		About Browserless is an advanced web scraping and browser automation platform designed to help developers extract data from protected websites using headless browser technology. The platform uses BrowserQL and browser-level automation to bypass bot detection systems such as Cloudflare and Datadome while enabling reliable access to dynamic web content. Browserless supports HTML and JSON extraction, screenshot generation, browser automation, and session management through APIs and integrations with Puppeteer and Playwright. Developers can automate interactions such as clicking buttons, navigating websites, rendering JavaScript-heavy pages, and maintaining browser sessions for more efficient scraping workflows. The platform also provides WebSocket endpoints, session reconnects, and optimized infrastructure that significantly improves scraping speed and reduces proxy usage.

Pricing $20 per 5000 credits Gaffa uses a simple credit-based pricing model. Plans start at $20 for 5,000 credits, with no subscription lock-in. Credits cover both browser execution time (1 credit per 30 seconds of runtime) and residential proxy bandwidth (750 credits per GB). A typical browser session, combining short execution time with low proxy bandwidth costs, costs around 3 credits, so 5,000 credits covers roughly 1,600+ typical sessions.

Pros from Real Users Pros Super reliable and straightforward tool. Refined set of features and clear documentation. Our setup couldn't have been much faster and we've not had any issues with the tool in over a year! Our system was using a more expensive competing product, but Gaffa made the transition simple and seamless. We are primarily using it to print PDF reports from our site, but plan to expand its use to other parts of our product and processes. Very easy to get going! Really expressive API. Saved me a lot of time and allowed me to do just what I needed in terms of interacting with sites and getting data back in the right way. Also the dashboard where you can see your previous requests is really useful when debugging!		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Speedy, Easy to implement, affordable to run, great support. Will use browser less to grab previews of content which we include in our application. The IPO is really fast to respond and allows us to pull in relevant data which is easy to manipulate as we need. Cons There’s nothing not to like really. Precise could be a factor for some, but it’s doubtful!
