Description

Gaffa is a REST API built for web scraping and browser automation, allowing developers to run real, full browsers at scale with a single API call. It removes the difficulty of managing headless browser frameworks, rotating proxies, CAPTCHA solving, and scaling infrastructure, all of which are handled automatically. JavaScript-heavy and dynamic websites render exactly as they would for a human visitor by default. Beyond standard scraping, Gaffa supports AI-driven structured data extraction (extract data into a defined schema without writing CSS selectors), screenshot and PDF capture, infinite-scroll and form-filling automation, and clean Markdown conversion for feeding webpages directly into LLM and RAG pipelines. A rotating residential proxy network keeps access reliable across regions, and a credit-based pricing model means teams pay only for the browser time and bandwidth they actually use. Gaffa is designed for AI engineers, data teams, and developers who want production-grade web data extraction without having to build and maintain their own infrastructure.

Among its many features are complete JavaScript rendering, access to premium residential IPs along with proxy rotation, effective CAPTCHA resolution, and built-in tools for managing rate limits or recovering from failed requests. Additionally, Olostep excels in PDF and DOCX parsing and provides browser automation functions such as clicking, scrolling, and waiting, which enhance its usability. The platform is designed to manage high volumes of traffic, processing millions of requests daily, and promotes affordability by asserting a cost reduction of up to 90% compared to traditional solutions, complemented by free trial credits for teams to evaluate the API's capabilities before committing to a plan. With such comprehensive offerings, Olostep has positioned itself as a valuable resource for developers seeking efficient data extraction solutions.

Pricing Details

$20 per 5000 credits

Credits cover both browser execution time (1 credit per 30 seconds of runtime) and residential proxy bandwidth (750 credits per GB). A typical browser session, combining short execution time with low proxy bandwidth costs, costs around 3 credits, so 5,000 credits covers roughly 1,600+ typical sessions.
