Olostep
The simplest price list in this set and, at volume, the cheapest that still quotes a page: one successful request is one credit whatever the page needed, and the pricing page says every request is already JS-rendered through residential IPs, so there is no browser surcharge and no premium-proxy surcharge to find. $399 for a million requests is $0.399 per 1,000 pages. The catches are at the two ends. At the bottom, the entry plan is $9 for 5,000 requests, which is $1.80 per 1,000 and nearly five times the Scale rate, and every plan is a hard allowance with no published overage rate, so running over means upgrading rather than paying a little more. At the top, credit packs are the only way to buy without a subscription and they die after six months, and the stablecoin pay-per-use route is $0.01 a request, ten dollars per 1,000, which makes not committing very expensive. Failures are free in the sense that matters: every allowance on the page is counted in successful requests. No proxy port, and no published uptime SLA. The footer names Olostep Technologies, Inc. and says "Made in Italy | United States".

List prices, dollars per 1,000 Plain pages at the cheapest published route to each volume. How this is worked out
Every published plan
| Plan | Price | Included requests | Overage each | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trial | $0 per month | 500 | hard cap | 500 successful requests, no credit card, low rate limits. JS rendering and residential IPs included like every other plan. |
| Starter | $9.00 per month | 5,000 | hard cap | 5,000 successful requests and 150 concurrent requests. The card prints COST/1K as $1.800. No overage rate is published for any subscription plan. |
| Standard | $99.00 per month | 200,000 | hard cap | 200,000 successful requests and 500 concurrent requests. The card prints COST/1K as $0.495. |
| Scale | $399 per month | 1,000,000 | hard cap | 1,000,000 successful requests, and the card prints COST/1K as $0.399. Adds AI-powered browser automations. |
| Credit pack 10K | $20.00 one-time, 6-month validity | 10,000 | hard cap | A one-off top-up for spiky usage, not a subscription. $20 for 10,000 credits, valid for 6 months. |
| Credit pack 250K | $200 one-time, 6-month validity | 250,000 | hard cap | $200 for 250,000 credits, valid for 6 months. |
| Credit pack 2M | $1,000 one-time, 6-month validity | 2,000,000 | hard cap | $1,000 for 2,000,000 credits, valid for 6 months. |
| Pay-per-use (x402) | $0 per month | 0 | $0.010 | A separate stablecoin rail, not a plan: POST /x402/v1/scrapes is published at "$0.01 per request" on Base USDC with no subscription, and /v1/maps is the same price. That is $10 per 1,000 pages, five to twenty-five times the subscription rate, which is the price of not committing to a plan. |
| Enterprise | on request | - | not published | "Hundreds of millions of credits with enterprise-grade reliability. We offer custom discounts." No list price. |
Olostep publishes no multiplier table, because it does not have one. A plan's unit is one successful request, and the pricing page states of the free plan that "All requests are JS rendered + utilizing residential IP addresses", which makes the browser render and the residential pool the default rather than a dearer tier. The docs add that Olostep "handles JavaScript, anti-bot, and proxies under the hood", and Markdown is simply one of the formats a scrape can ask for alongside html, text, json, raw_pdf and screenshot. Nothing in the pricing page, the scrape docs or the API reference charges extra for a format, a country, a parser or an LLM extraction, so all five verticals are 1. If you want the arithmetic checked: $9 for 5,000 requests is the $1.80/1K the page prints, $99 for 200,000 is $0.495/1K, and $399 for 1,000,000 is $0.399/1K.
