As you would expect, ScraperAPI and Oxylabs have quite different pricing structures and use different terms to break down their pricing.
To make a fair comparison, let’s establish some common ground:
With these factors in mind, here’s a detailed breakdown of the two services:

Scrape over 400k more pages by switching to ScraperAPI
After building hundreds of web scrapers, we understand that there are enough moving parts that you shouldn’t also have to worry about plan limitations, pricing, and scope.
Instead of making you decide between ten different plans and combinations (each with its own limitations and capabilities), the only thing you need to think about when choosing ScraperAPI is how many requests you’ll need.
Unlike our competitors, ScraperAPI doesn’t always use expensive residential or mobile proxies to unlock a site. Instead, it uses machine learning and statistical analysis to smartly rotate your IP and headers to ensure a successful request, protecting you from the overhead of using premium proxies when it’s not necessary.
Thanks to this more efficient process, we’re able to provide more data at a lower price without compromising success rates or speed.
By default, Oxylabs always charges the same, no matter if you need to render or not a page to get accurate results. This can be an advantage in some cases, but more often than not, it means you’re always getting the most expensive version of a request.
ScraperAPI offers a different approach, only rendering a page – thus charging for the rendering cost – only when needed and specified by you.
That said, here’s a clear comparison of using ScraperAPI with JS rendering for ecommerce sites vs. Oxylabs:

* This was calculated taking the 3M API credits divided by 15 API credits that would cost each successful request using the ecommerce scraper and JS rendering feature.
You’re still getting 75,200 more results with ScraperAPI!
There’s an exception to the rule. For websites we already have structured data endpoints (SDEs) – like Amazon and Walmart – JS rendering is free.
For non-ecommerce dynamic sites, you get even more data, as every JS rendered request would cost 10 API credits:
