# Firecrawl

A web scraping and search API purpose-built for AI agents, offering search, scrape, map, crawl, and page-interaction endpoints.

**Route:** surfaced by the online payment acceptance lane's de-branded queries → competitor to stripe.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same web-data-extraction capability to the same AI teams that would shortlist the anchor's payment infrastructure if they were evaluating payment tools, but here both serve developers needing to pull structured data from the web — a buyer choosing Firecrawl's scraping API over Stripe's payment APIs would be choosing a different category entirely; however, the prompt frames the anchor as stripe.com and the market as payments, so Firecrawl is unrelated to that market — the correct relation should be 'none' because Firecrawl's page shows no payment functionality and instead sells web scraping for AI, which is a different market from stripe.com.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> The context API to search, scrape, and interact with the web at scale.

> Trusted by 150,000+ companies of all sizes
