The ScreenshotAPI alternative that renders Cloudflare-protected sites

ScreenshotRender is the best ScreenshotAPI alternative for teams that need to capture Cloudflare-protected and bot-gated pages. It renders those pages clean with stealth mode built in, removes cookie banners and ads automatically, and allows 60 requests per minute at the entry plan, three times what ScreenshotAPI offers at the same level.

The main difference is how each API handles bot-protected pages. ScreenshotRender has a built-in stealth mode that renders Cloudflare-protected and bot-gated pages clean, while ScreenshotAPI.net documents no anti-bot handling, so protected pages may return a challenge screen. ScreenshotRender also allows 60 requests per minute at the entry plan versus ScreenshotAPI's 20.

For protected sites and high-throughput pipelines, yes. ScreenshotRender has a stealth mode that renders pages an ordinary capture service gets blocked on, and it strips cookie banners and ads from every capture without extra configuration. At the entry plan it also allows three times as many requests per minute.

Yes. ScreenshotRender renders Cloudflare-protected pages in a real browser with stealth mode on, so JavaScript-heavy and bot-protected sites return a clean image instead of a challenge screen, with no extra setup required.

ScreenshotAPI.net does not document stealth mode or anti-bot bypass on its website or feature pages. It renders JavaScript pages and lists a proxy parameter, but how that handles Cloudflare protection is not stated. ScreenshotRender documents stealth mode explicitly and renders Cloudflare-protected pages by default on all paid plans.

Point your request at https://screenshotrender.com/api/v1/screenshot and pass apiKey and the url you want captured. Add fullPage=true for a full-page capture. There is no proxy to configure and no SDK to install, so most teams migrate in minutes.

Yes. The free plan includes 100 screenshots a month with no credit card required, so you can test it against your current ScreenshotAPI usage before you switch.

Yes. Add fullPage=true to your request and ScreenshotRender captures the entire scrollable page instead of just the viewport.

No. ScreenshotRender only charges for renders that successfully return an image, so failed requests, blocked pages, and timeouts never use a credit.

ScreenshotAPI allows 20 requests per minute on its entry plan. ScreenshotRender allows 60 requests per minute on its entry plan, three times as many, so batch jobs and pipelines have more headroom from day one without needing to upgrade.
