9 web data tools · One API key · REST + MCP

Web data for your app and your AI agents. Pay only for what succeeds.

One API key for YouTube transcripts, screenshots and PDFs, Google News, company contacts, tech stacks, App Store reviews, job openings, WHOIS and post-quantum TLS scans. Call it over REST or plug it into your AI agent through our hosted MCP server. Clean JSON in seconds, and failed requests never count against your plan.

  • Failed results are free
  • Plans from $29/month
  • Hosted MCP for AI agents
  • Free tools, no signup: try them

Try it live. Real requests, real JSON.

Pick a tool, paste an input and run it. The demo calls the same infrastructure the API uses and shows the exact response shape you'd get.

  • No signup, no card
  • 15 demo runs per visitor per day; popular inputs are cached
  • Screenshots are viewport-only and transcripts are shortened in the demo. The API returns everything.

By running the demo you agree to use it lawfully. Inputs are sent to our processing provider (Apify) to run the tool.

Example response. Run it to see live data.

Three focused tools. One key.

Each tool does one job well and returns the same predictable JSON shape: a list of results, each with a status.

Also on the Apify Store, pay per result

Run these on your own Apify account. Not part of the Siftwright API plans yet.

Five lines to your first result

A plain REST API. POST JSON, get JSON. Works from any language, any serverless function, and any agent framework.

  • /v1/youtube-transcript, /v1/screenshot, /v1/google-news, plus contacts, tech stack, App Store reviews, job openings, WHOIS and post-quantum scans (all endpoints)
  • Bearer-token auth, clear error codes, usage returned on every call
  • Up to 10 videos, 5 pages or 100 articles per request

Why developers pick Siftwright

We're a small, new studio, so there's no wall of logos here. Here's what's true today, which you can check yourself in the demo and the docs.

You pay for success, provably

Only items with "status": "ok" count. Each response tells you how many were billed and how many results you have left.

One unit, every tool

A transcript, a capture, an article or a website each count as one result; cheap bulk units are bundled (25 reviews, 3 jobs or 3 domains per result). No hidden credit multipliers.

Prices on the page

Every plan shows its price per 1,000 results. No "contact sales" wall below $999/month. See the calculator.

Pay-per-result option

Not ready for a subscription? Run the same tools on the Apify Store from $1.50 per 1,000 results and pay only for usage.

Agent-ready

Structured JSON that models read easily, plus MCP access through Apify's hosted server.

Honest comparisons

We publish dated comparisons with competitors, including when they're the better fit. Read them.

Simple plans that scale down in price

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a result?

One YouTube transcript, one screenshot or PDF, or one news article that actually came back. Items that fail (a video without captions, a page that times out, an empty search) are returned with an error status so you can see why, and they are not counted. Every API response has a billed field so you can check.

Is there a free trial?

The live demo on this page is free and needs no signup (15 runs per day). The API itself is paid only, from $29/month. If you'd rather pay per result with no subscription, the same tools are on the Apify Store at $1.50 per 1,000 results, and Apify's free plan includes monthly platform credit.

How fast is it?

In our own tests on 28 September 2026, a single news search, a single screenshot and a short video transcript each came back in about 3 to 4 seconds end to end. Big batches take longer; requests are synchronous and can run for up to about 5 minutes.

Can my AI agent use it?

Yes. Connect our hosted MCP server at https://siftwright.com/mcp with your API key from Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client, call the REST endpoints as tools, or use Apify's hosted MCP server with an Apify account. See web data for AI agents.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Change plan, update your card, download invoices or cancel from the Stripe billing portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you've paid for.

Where does the data come from?

Public pages only: YouTube's public captions, the web pages you ask us to capture, and Google News results. We don't log in to anything and don't collect personal data on your behalf. You're responsible for using the data lawfully.
