Enhanced Scraper Reliability and Transparent Performance
This update dramatically improves scraping reliability with extended request timeouts for slow-loading pages and a new minimum timeout floor. We have also launched an interactive performance benchmark table to help you find the most efficient plan tier for your target sites. Finally, key fixes to our billing system ensure promotional bonuses are seamlessly and reliably applied.
Get a one-time 25% extra credit on your first balance deposit. If your deposit also qualifies for a volume bonus, we automatically apply the higher of the two to maximize your credit.
Receive early email notifications if your account's usage speed projects balance depletion within three days. This proactive system helps you replenish your funds before active scraping tasks are paused.
After verifying your email address with a one-time passcode, you are now automatically logged into the platform. This removes the redundant step of entering your credentials a second time.

8Seamless Verification Log In
After verifying your email address with a one-time passcode, you are now automatically logged into the platform. This removes the redundant step of entering your credentials a second time.
Advanced Browser Emulation Enhancements
We have updated our browser emulation layer to more naturally handle page state and visibility changes. This ensures that advanced detection systems cannot flag automated sessions on interactive sites.
Support Chat Contrast Improvements
Support chats now feature clear color differentiation between your messages and admin replies. This layout update makes long conversation histories much easier to scan, track, and read.
Enhanced Onboarding Demo Experience
The interactive onboarding flow has been upgraded to target a dedicated, structured test site rather than a static placeholder. This provides a realistic demonstration of our data parsing capabilities.
Branded Transactional Email Sender
Platform emails now display a clear, branded sender name instead of a plain address. This ensures that critical billing alerts and account notifications are instantly recognizable in your inbox.
General bug fixes and improvements
Plus 27 internal improvements for better reliability and performance.
Extended limit for complex scrapes
The maximum scrape request duration limit has been raised to 210 seconds. This prevents unexpected timeout errors on slow-loading targets, ensuring complex scraping tasks complete.
Optimized selector waiting
We improved timing synchronization when waiting for specific page elements to load. Scrapers will now experience cleaner execution with reduced timing conflicts and fewer uncaught timeout warnings.
Bug Fixes
9Light Mode Support Ticket Readability
Resolved a styling issue where support replies and chat bubbles rendered unreadably in light mode. Text now dynamically adapts to your theme, ensuring optimal legibility across all layouts.
Sign-Up Form Heading Corrected
Fixed a layout bug where the registration page displayed a sign-in heading even when accessed from sign-up buttons. This provides a clearer and less confusing sign-up process for new users.
Reliable Support Ticket Attachments
Fixed an issue where uploading screenshots and files to support tickets could fail. You can now reliably attach files to your tickets to provide full context on your inquiries.
Prevented premature page timeouts
We established a minimum timeout floor for page navigation under low remaining time budgets. Scrapes on sites without specialized rules will no longer fail prematurely during execution.
Reliable first-deposit bonus delivery
The system now automatically recovers transaction data if a database timeout occurs during deposit processing. This ensures your 25% first-deposit promotional bonus is always credited.
Accurate limit warning alerts
We corrected a calculation error in the credit limit warning system. Free grants and welcome credits are now processed accurately, preventing premature or incorrect limit notifications.
Self-healing dashboard errors
Fixed an issue where network interruptions or outdated browser assets caused the dashboard to freeze. The application now auto-recovers and reloads automatically to restore service.
Support ticket file uploads
Resolved a directory permission error that caused some file uploads to fail on the support page. You can now attach logs, screenshots, and other diagnostic files to your support tickets.
Clean notification sender formatting
Fixed an issue that caused sender email addresses on system notifications to appear with duplicate formatting. System emails now display sender names clearly across all inbox clients.
Security
2Hardened URL Redirection Security
We have strengthened validation on dashboard redirect URLs to reject unsafe protocol-relative links. This security reinforcement protects your active sessions from open redirection attempts.
Session token rate limiting
We applied a security limit of 30 requests per minute to the session token exchange endpoint. This matches existing safeguards to protect user accounts and prevent credential abuse.
