What is Decodo Web Scraping API?
Decodo (evolving from Smartproxy-era branding on some materials) redesigned scraping around pay-for-complexity. Each successful request is billed from a four-cell rate card: Standard proxies, Standard+JS, Premium proxies, or Premium+JS. Your monthly plan (Free, Starter $19, Professional $49, Business $99, Enterprise custom) sets how good those rates are and what request-per-second limit you get. Free includes a small standard-request allotment without a card; Business drops Standard fetches to roughly $0.14 per 1,000 on public tables.
Feature messaging includes high success-rate claims, HTML/JSON/CSV/XHR/PNG/markdown outputs, 100+ site templates, MCP server support, and a 14-day money-back window on paid plans. VAT may apply. Model cost with your real Standard vs Premium mix rather than assuming every request is Premium+JS. Official tutorials show dashboard setup and n8n-style workflows; re-verify live allotments on decodo.com/scraping/web.
