UrlboxFree tier and limits

Screenshot API with a 7 day trial, no free plan, and a $100 refund if your first 10,000 renders disappoint.

No free plan here, but there is a 7 day trial and a refund promise. Urlbox is a screenshot and rendering API that turns URLs and HTML into PNG, JPEG, WebP, PDF, video and extracted text. It has no free plan, and the pricing FAQ says so directly, explaining that it serves revenue-generating businesses. What it offers instead is a 7 day free trial with no credit card on the Hi-Fi plan at $49 a month and the Ultra plan at $99 a month, plus a refund of up to $100 if you are unhappy with your first 10,000 screenshots. The Lo-Fi plan costs $19 a month for 2,000 renders. G2 shows 4.8 from 4 reviews that describe fast, high-resolution screenshots. Going over your quota moves you to the next tier automatically.

πŸ‘ Good boy

  • +The $100 guarantee covers your first 10,000 screenshots, so a paid start has a defined way out if rendering quality does not meet your needs.
  • +You are only charged for successful renders. The FAQ says requests that fail because the page is unavailable or the options are invalid do not count.
  • +A G2 reviewer called it a fast and reliable screenshot service and said the API lacks any significant drawbacks, and another praised high-resolution output and the range of options.
  • +The feature list is wide: URL and HTML to image, PDF, Markdown text extraction, Open Graph metadata, scrolling screenshots, video, custom headers and JavaScript, and ad and cookie banner blocking.
  • +Render links are cached for 30 days, and requests to a cached screenshot do not count against the quota.
  • +Email alerts go out at 80%, 90% and 100% of the monthly quota, and the page lists uptime SLAs of 99.95% on Business and 99.99% on Enterprise.
  • +The Business plan has a 3 month trial on application, with no credit card, for teams that need to test at scale.

πŸ‘Ž Watch out

  • βˆ’There is no free plan. The FAQ says the company primarily serves revenue-generating businesses, so hobby projects pay from $19 a month or use the trial only.
  • βˆ’Going over quota upgrades you automatically to the next tier. The FAQ describes it as a convenience, but it changes your bill without a prompt.
  • βˆ’The Lo-Fi plan is limited. It targets screenshots of sites you own, with thumbnails only for third-party sites, a 30 second timeout and a 2.5 MB file size limit.
  • βˆ’One render is charged per 30 second period a request takes, per 5 MB of output, and GPU rendering uses twice as many. Proxy requests count at 2x to 50x, and a captcha solve costs 3 renders.
  • βˆ’Trustpilot shows 3.0 from 2 reviews dated June 2023, and G2 has only 4 reviews, so the evidence base is small.
  • βˆ’Business is $498 a month and Enterprise starts at $3,000 a month, and SLAs and dedicated support are limited to those tiers.

The catch

Urlbox has no free plan. The pricing FAQ asks why and answers that it serves revenue-generating businesses. The offer for developers is a 7 day free trial with no credit card on Hi-Fi ($49 a month, 5,000 renders) and Ultra ($99 a month, 15,000 renders), and a refund of up to $100 if you are unhappy with your first 10,000 screenshots. The Business plan has a 3 month trial on application. The trial text sits under the Hi-Fi and Ultra plans only, so I did not assume it covers Lo-Fi. The page also says that if you exceed your quota you are automatically moved to the next tier with volume pricing. Renders are charged per 30 seconds of request time and per 5 MB of output, GPU rendering uses double, and proxied requests use 2x to 50x renders. G2 shows 4.8 from 4 reviews. Trustpilot shows 3.0 from 2 reviews from 2023 and I could not read their text. The page does not say whether commercial use is limited during the trial, so that field is unknown.

Common questions

Does Urlbox have a free plan?

No. The FAQ says it does not, because it primarily serves revenue-generating businesses. It offers a 7 day trial instead.

Do I need a credit card for the trial?

The pricing page says no credit card is required for the 7 day trial on Hi-Fi and Ultra.

What counts as a render?

A successful render is one that returns an image. Failed requests do not count. Long requests, large files, GPU and proxies can use more than one render.

What if I go over my quota?

Urlbox automatically upgrades you to the next tier and applies volume pricing, according to the FAQ.

Is there a money back guarantee?

Yes. If you are unhappy with your first 10,000 screenshots, the page promises a refund of up to $100.
