Frequently asked questions

What is Decodo?

Decodo is a web data infrastructure platform built for developers and tech teams who need to collect data at scale without the long and complex setup process. It offers a full suite of tools, including proxies (residential, mobile, datacenter, and ISP) and a Web Scraping API. Decodo’s infrastructure and pricing options adapt to both big and small projects.

Which websites can Decodo’s Web Scraping API scrape?

Decodo's Web Scraping API works with any publicly accessible website, like eCommerce stores, SERP pages, travel and hospitality websites, real estate listings, financial data sources, news outlets, and more. For the most common targets like Amazon, Google, and major retail marketplaces, there are ready-made templates that return clean, structured data.

If a website's not on the template list, the universal scraper handles any HTML-based page. However, it’s important to keep in mind that there are blocked targets.

What can Decodo Web Scraping API be used for?

Decodo's Web Scraping API is built for ethical, business-critical web data collection. Common use cases include:

  • Price monitoring for tracking competitor pricing across retail marketplaces in real time to stay competitive.
  • Market research & competitive analysis for pulling product data, listings, and industry trends at scale.
  • SERP tracking for collecting search engine results across locations to measure SEO performance and ad placements.
  • Travel fare aggregation for scraping flight and hotel pricing data from booking sites.
  • Brand protection for identifying unauthorized sellers or counterfeit listings across online marketplaces.
  • AI & ML training data for automating large-scale data collection to feed and improve machine learning models.
  • Business intelligence for gathering and structuring web data to support data-driven decisions

All use cases are subject to Decodo's terms of service and responsible use guidelines.

Who can benefit from using Decodo?

Developers are Decodo’s primary users. If you're building a data pipeline, integrating web data into a product, or scaling scraping infrastructure for your team, Decodo is set up to make that faster and less painful. The Web Scraping API integrates cleanly into existing workflows and supports multiple output formats (HTML, JSON, Markdown, XHR, PNG, and CSV). Beyond individual developers, Decodo is a solid fit for:

  • Tech leads and engineering teams managing web data infrastructure.
  • Data scientists and analysts who need consistent, structured data inputs.
  • CTOs and heads of data at fintech, eCommerce, digital marketing, and data intelligence companies.
  • Startups and SMEs looking for reliable infrastructure without the overhead of building it in-house.

How fast is Decodo’s API and what if a website is hard to scrape?

Speed-wise, Decodo's Web Scraping API delivers a 99.99% success rate with automatic retries. The infrastructure is built to handle millions of requests every day without dropping performance.

For tricky targets with aggressive bot detection, the Web Scraping API automatically rotates proxies. If a request hits a wall, it retries without you needing to write any retry logic yourself.

How does Decodo handle dynamic content?

Dynamic content, meaning content that loads via JavaScript after the initial page render, is handled through built-in JavaScript rendering (if your pricing plan includes it). When you enable JavaScript rendering in your request, the Web Scraping API uses a headless browser to wait for the full page to load before returning the content. This means you get the complete page, including data that only appears after JavaScript executes, without having to set up your own headless browser infrastructure.

What happens if a request fails?

Failed requests are automatically retried. Decodo's infrastructure manages proxy rotation, header management, and retry logic on its end, so if a request doesn't go through on the first attempt, it tries again using a different approach. You only get charged for successful responses.

Do you have a free plan or a trial?

Yes. Decodo offers a free starter plan for all new users, allowing you to explore the features and capabilities at no cost. During the starter plan, you’ll get a free $1 worth plan, with up to 2K requests based on the target and features. This plan gives you full access to the API's features, including ready-made templates and other useful features, so you can evaluate its performance and suitability for your needs before committing.

What is an API credit?

An API credit is the unit used to measure usage on Decodo's Web Scraping API. Each successful request costs a certain number of credits depending on the type of request, for example, requests with JavaScript rendering.

What if I need more volume?

If your current plan's credit allowance isn't enough, you can upgrade to a higher tier at any time from your dashboard. For teams with very high-volume or custom requirements, Decodo also offers enterprise-level options. Feel free to reach out to our sales team to discuss a setup that fits your scale.

I'm not a developer, can you create custom scraping scripts for me?

Custom script development isn't something Decodo offers directly. That said, if you're not comfortable writing code from scratch, the Web Scraping API is designed to be as straightforward as possible. Ready-made templates cover the most popular targets, and the dashboard walks you through generating your endpoint without needing deep technical knowledge.

Can I cancel my plan any time?

Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time from your dashboard. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period – you won't be billed again after cancellation.

What’s your refund policy?

Decodo offers a 14-day money-back guarantee on all paid plans. If you're not happy with the product within the first 14 days of a paid subscription, you can request a refund. Please note that this doesn't apply to our free starter plan. Check out our refund policy for more details.
