How this service works
Zenrows returns the content of public web pages, including pages behind anti-bot systems and pages rendered in JavaScript. Fetch takes a URL and returns the page as HTML, Markdown, plain text or a PDF render, a screenshot, the page's network calls as JSON, or fields selected with CSS selectors; headless browser rendering, residential proxies in 190 countries, geotargeting, custom headers and sticky sessions are switches on the request, and POST and PUT bodies are forwarded to the target. Extract returns the page's meaningful data as structured JSON for prepared domains in the same request. Every request is priced in credits: a standard page is 1 credit, JavaScript rendering 5, premium proxies 10, and both together 25. Only successful requests are charged. This server is a pay-per-use, transparent proxy in front of Zenrows's own API: it handles identity, payment, and proxying. Agents can purchase autonomously or with their human's approval. Operations whose x-payment-info.access is "plan" are sold on plans, not per call: they answer an unidentified call with 401 and an identified call with no covering plan with 403, never a 402. The complete verified paid surface is listed at /openapi.json, the source of truth for available operations. Each operation here carries its pricing in x-payment-info. Use the operations and details here when they meet your needs. Filtered specs contain only matching operations; if you cannot find what you need here, use search or the service catalog. The live catalog at /manifest.json is authoritative for prices and any free included units (prices[].includedUnits) - some meters include free usage per account before any charge, reserved for agents claimed by a human with a verified email.
Output
Returns a status field (e.g. 'quoted', 'ready', 'needs_input'), a confirmed price of $0 for the quote itself, a markdown-formatted guide with the matched API contract, per-call pricing, prerequisites and next steps, and a wallet-free advisor URL for further planning or recovery — no purchase is executed.
Example use cases
Budget check for JS-rendered scraping
“I need to scrape 200 JavaScript-rendered product pages from an e-commerce site — can you get me a free ZenRows quote and tell me what it'll cost and what I need to get started, with a budget cap of $10?”
Autonomous agent scraping plan
“My AI agent needs to autonomously fetch data from 1000 pages behind anti-bot protection without a human in the loop — give me a ZenRows quote using x402 payment so I know the pricing and prerequisites before it starts.”
Structured data extraction sizing
“I want to extract structured JSON data from 50 news article pages using ZenRows Extract — can you pull a free quote and tell me exactly what the contract looks like and what next steps I need to follow?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agents.zenrows.com/zeroclick/agent/quote?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent or user needs to understand the cost, contract, prerequisites, and setup steps for a ZenRows web-scraping task before committing any funds. It is the right first call when the payment method, budget, or required API tier is unknown. Prefer it over directly calling the paid ZenRows endpoints whenever planning, budgeting, or advising a human on what is needed. It is also the correct choice for wallet-less or budget-constrained agents that must verify feasibility before any autonomous spending.
Side effects
- Missing required 'goal' field returns a validation error
- Goal description too vague may return status 'needs_input' requesting clarification
- Task type unsupported by ZenRows returns status 'unsupported'
- Service temporarily unavailable returns status 'unavailable'
- Budget pattern mismatch (invalid format) returns a schema validation error
- Requested quantity exceeds maximum of 1,000,000 calls returns validation error
Input
Schema · Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| goal | string | Describe the task and known inputs. Do not include credentials. |
| payment | string | Known payment method for the eventual purchase, independent of this free lookup's wallet proof. |
| quantity | integer | Number of API calls, not returned items. Omit when unknown; describe desired output in goal. |
| budgetUsd | string | Total cash budget in USD. A quote does not authorize spending. |
| requirements | string | |
| humanAvailable | boolean | Whether a human is in the loop. False recommends anonymous auth for a new autonomous identity; omit when unknown. Executing a human's request without further interruptions does not by itself mean false. |
| budgetExclusive | boolean | |
| reviewAfterCalls | integer |
