When cheap HTTP and render are not enough
Retailer and marketplace scrapes often hit vendor stacks after a clean Crawler or Rendering call fails. WebUnlocker is a separate mode on the same balance, one URL per call, allowlisted domains only, hybrid engine when WAF layers block extraction.
- Confirm the domain is supported before production traffic, or contact support if it is not enabled yet
- Maintained playbooks for Cloudflare, DataDome, Akamai, PerimeterX, Kasada, and peers
- Failed retries after exhaustion are not billed
- Same API key and credit balance across BrowserSolver scrape modes
Unlocked HTML back into your parser
After challenges clear, page bodies land in the same shape as Website Crawler, no second integration path for protected extracts.
- Pass-rate visibility per allowlisted domain in the dashboard
- Run Website AntiBot first when you are unsure which layer is blocking
- Escalate from 1× Crawler or 2× Rendering only on URLs that still fail after probe
- Same API key and credit balance across BrowserSolver scrape modes

Frequently asked questions
Credits, scrape types, and billing before your first production job.
Which domains support WebUnlocker?
Unlock runs on supported domains only. Confirm coverage in docs or with support before pointing production scrapers at a new host.
How is WebUnlocker different from Rendering?
Rendering executes JavaScript on pages you can already reach. WebUnlocker adds vendor bypass for hardened allowlisted domains.
Should I unlock every URL?
No. Start with Crawler or Rendering. Use AntiBot when unsure, then unlock only the URLs that still fail.
Where are vendor guides?
See /bypass/cloudflare and the other vendor pages under /bypass for Cloudflare, DataDome, Akamai, and peers.
