Here is every plan, the per-Worker rates, how the balance and top-ups work, three worked bills, and where Scrape.ly gives you more for the money. [Scrape.ly Team The team behind Scrape.ly](https://scrape.ly/blog/author/scrapely-team.md) - Published Oct 27, 2026 - Reading time 7 min read ![Pixel-art robot with an orange >\_ on its terminal head holds the end of a long receipt with a dollar sign that prints out of an arcade cabinet bearing the blue CoreClaw logo, gold coins on the floor below it](https://scrape.ly/media/coreclaw-pricing.png?w=1080) CoreClaw pricing starts at $0 with $3 of credit when you sign up, then three monthly plans: Starter at $3, Pro at $29 and Business at $199. You pay per successful result, and each paid plan takes 40%, 48% or 60% off the price of every Worker (CoreClaw's name for a ready-made scraper) while raising your parallel runs from 2 to 5, 10 or 50. This guide lists every CoreClaw plan, explains how the balance, the discounts and the top-ups work, walks through three bills with CoreClaw's own rates, and shows where Scrape.ly gives you more for the money: more parallel runs at the same price, a free credit that comes back every month, cheaper Google Maps reviews and an 80% share for the people who build the scrapers. **Prices checked on 27 October 2026** on [coreclaw.com/pricing](https://www.coreclaw.com/pricing) and on the pricing tab of each CoreClaw Worker named below. ## CoreClaw pricing: every plan CoreClaw is a marketplace of ready-made scrapers with a managed cloud runtime, run by Apex DataWorks Limited in Hong Kong. Its pricing page lists four self-serve plans, billed monthly. There's no annual option on the page. | Plan | Price | Results (CoreClaw's wording) | Worker discount | Max parallel runs | Queued tasks | Support | | -------- | ------------ | ----------------------------------- | --------------- | ----------------- | ------------ | --------------------------------- | | Free | $0 | "$3 on signup and up to 2K results" | none | 2 | 5 | Basic | | Starter | $3 a month | "Up to 3k results" | 40% | 5 | 15 | Email, within 48 hours | | Pro | $29 a month | "Up to 37k results" | 48% | 10 | 30 | Priority email, within 24 hours | | Business | $199 a month | "Up to 331k results" | 60% | 50 | 150 | Dedicated manager, within 4 hours | Pro adds a 99.5% availability SLA and Business 99.9%. Above Business, CoreClaw offers custom enterprise plans through its sales team. You don't need a credit card to start, and you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time. The Free plan has one limit worth knowing before you test: "Free users can export up to 700 results." Paid plans have unlimited exports in CSV, Excel and JSON. ### $3 or $9? A note on the Starter price CoreClaw's own pages don't agree on the entry price. The pricing page shows Starter at $3 a month, while its [CoreClaw vs Apify Google Maps page](https://www.coreclaw.com/compare/apify-google-maps-scraper) says "Monthly Plan Starts At $9 / month". We read both on 27 October 2026 and quote the pricing page. If the entry plan matters to you, check the amount at checkout. ## How CoreClaw bills CoreClaw charges per successful result. Its FAQ says: "You only pay for successful results generated by the workflow." Failed results aren't charged. Four things decide what a result costs you: 1. **The Worker.** Every Worker has its own rate per 1,000 results. The pricing page shows a few as examples and notes that "actual rates may vary by Worker and are subject to the information on the respective Worker detail page." 2. **Your plan.** The plan discount comes off every Worker's rate: none on Free, 40% on Starter, 48% on Pro, 60% on Business. 3. **What's included.** Compute, residential proxies ("10M+ residential IP pool to bypass detection, no per-GB charges"), storage and data transfer are part of the per-result price. 4. **Your balance.** Spending comes out of a dollar balance. On top of a plan you can top up from $5. The balance is "valid for any Worker" for 30 days; on expiry it "freezes", "never clears" and "reactivates on recharge". Here are the rates CoreClaw publishes for its best-known Workers: | Worker | Free | Starter | Pro | Business | | --------------------- | ----- | ------- | ----- | -------- | | Amazon product data | $1.50 | $0.90 | $0.78 | $0.60 | | Google Maps | $3.00 | $1.80 | $1.56 | $1.20 | | Google Maps Reviews | $3.00 | $1.80 | $1.56 | $1.20 | | Google Search results | $3.00 | $1.80 | $1.56 | $1.20 | | TikTok post data | $6.75 | $4.05 | $3.51 | $2.70 | All prices are per 1,000 results. The Amazon, Google Maps and TikTok rows come from the pricing page; the Google Maps Reviews and Google Search rows come from those Workers' own pricing tabs. ### What the plan fee buys CoreClaw's page doesn't say in words whether the plan price is spent as balance, but its "up to" figures line up exactly with that reading. Each one is the plan price divided by the cheapest rate on the plan, the Amazon Worker's: - Free: $3 ÷ $1.50 per 1,000 = 2,000 results ("up to 2K") - Starter: $3 ÷ $0.90 per 1,000 = about 3,300 ("up to 3k") - Pro: $29 ÷ $0.78 per 1,000 = about 37,200 ("up to 37k") - Business: $199 ÷ $0.60 per 1,000 = about 331,700 ("up to 331k") So read "up to" as "if every result came from the cheapest Worker". On the Google Maps Worker, the same $29 Pro plan covers about 18,600 results ($29 ÷ $1.56 per 1,000), half the headline number. ## Three worked bills All three use CoreClaw's published rates from the tables above. **1. Trying it out on the Free plan.** The $3 signup credit buys 2,000 Amazon results at $1.50 per 1,000, 1,000 Google Maps results at $3.00, or about 440 TikTok posts at $6.75. With the Amazon or Google Maps Worker you'd collect more than the 700 results a free account can export, so the export cap, not the credit, is what ends a free test. **2. 5,000 Google Maps reviews a month.** On Starter the reviews cost 5 × $1.80 = $9.00: the $3 plan plus a top-up of at least $6. On Pro they cost 5 × $1.56 = $7.80, inside a $29 plan. On Business, 5 × $1.20 = $6.00, inside $199. For comparison, the same 5,000 reviews cost about $1.80 on Scrape.ly (more on that below). **3. 200,000 Google Maps results a month.** At this volume, Business is the plan CoreClaw designed for: 200 × $1.20 = $240, so the $199 plan plus about $41 of top-up. Pro would cost 200 × $1.56 = $312. The other number to check at this size is throughput: Business allows 50 parallel runs, Pro 10. ## Extra costs and limits to plan for - **The 700-result export cap on Free.** Fine for a look at the data, not for a real project. - **Rates vary by Worker.** The pricing page shows "partial pricing". Open each Worker's pricing tab before you budget, especially for Workers outside the examples above. - **Top-ups expire after 30 days.** The balance freezes rather than disappears, but you have to recharge to use it again. - **Parallel runs and the queue.** Starter runs 5 Workers at once and queues 15 more; Pro 10 and 30. Large or scheduled jobs wait their turn on the lower plans. - **Published success rates.** CoreClaw shows run stats on every Worker page. On 27 October 2026 its [Google Maps Scraper](https://www.coreclaw.com/coreclaw/google-maps-scraper) showed 74.3K total runs with a success rate of 48.63% (last updated 5 September 2026), and its [Google Search Scraper](https://www.coreclaw.com/coreclaw/google-search-scraper) 72.5K runs at 66.66% (last updated 5 August 2026). You aren't charged for failed results, but a failed run still costs you time and a parallel-run slot. - **Building your own Workers.** Developers who publish on CoreClaw earn a "10% revenue share on every successful record", according to its [code monetization page](https://www.coreclaw.com/code-monetization). ## CoreClaw vs Scrape.ly pricing [Scrape.ly](https://scrape.ly/index.md) works on the same idea: a Store of ready-made scrapers (Actors) that you run in the cloud and pay for per result, with platform usage included in the price on most Actors. Scrape.ly vs CoreClaw comes down to what you get around the per-result price: | | CoreClaw | Scrape.ly | | ------------------------------------ | ----------------------- | ------------------------------- | | Free credit | $3 on signup | $5 every month, no card | | Parallel runs on the entry paid plan | 5 (Starter) | 32 (Starter, $19 every 4 weeks) | | Parallel runs at $199 | 50 (Business, a month) | 128 (Scale, every 4 weeks) | | Google Maps reviews, per 1,000 | $1.20 to $3.00, by plan | $0.36, platform usage included | | Scraper builders keep | 10% of what users spend | 80% of event fees | | Ready-made scrapers | 100+ Workers | 560+ Actors | What that means in practice: - **A free credit that comes back.** Scrape.ly's Free plan gives you $5 of usage every month without a card, so you can keep a small monitoring job running for free, month after month. CoreClaw's $3 arrives once, when you sign up. - **More parallel runs for the money.** Scrape.ly's Starter plan costs $19 every 4 weeks, all of it usable credit, and runs 32 Actors at once. At $199, Scale runs 128 at once, against 50 on CoreClaw's Business plan at the same price. - **Google Maps reviews for a fraction.** The [Google Maps Reviews Scraper](https://scrape.ly/store/cornerledger/google-maps-reviews-scraper.md) charges $0.36 per 1,000 reviews with compute and proxies included. That's the 5,000 reviews from the second bill for about $1.80, which the free monthly credit covers. - **A bigger Store, built by people who keep 80%.** Scrape.ly's [Store](https://scrape.ly/store.md) lists 560+ maintained Actors from six publisher studios, from [Google Maps places](https://scrape.ly/store/cornerledger/google-maps-scraper.md) to LinkedIn jobs and Zillow listings. Developers who publish their own keep 80% of the event fees, eight times CoreClaw's 10% share. Scrape.ly's [pricing page](https://scrape.ly/pricing.md) has the full plan table. If you're comparing platforms rather than plans, our [CoreClaw alternatives](https://scrape.ly/blog/coreclaw-alternatives.md) guide covers Scrape.ly, Apify, Outscraper, Octoparse and Browse AI, and the [Apify pricing](https://scrape.ly/blog/apify-pricing.md) breakdown explains the model CoreClaw compares itself with. ## FAQ ### Is CoreClaw free? CoreClaw has a free plan with $3 of credit on signup, enough for up to 2,000 results on its cheapest Worker. Free users can export up to 700 results and run 2 Workers at once. Scrape.ly's Free plan gives you $5 of credit every month instead of once. ### How much does CoreClaw cost? The plans cost $0, $3, $29 and $199 a month (Free, Starter, Pro, Business), checked on 27 October 2026. Results are charged at each Worker's rate minus your plan's discount, for example $1.80 per 1,000 Google Maps results on Starter. ### Does CoreClaw charge for failed results? No. CoreClaw's FAQ says you only pay for successful results. Failed runs still use a parallel-run slot, and its Worker pages publish success rates per Worker. ### Do CoreClaw credits expire? Top-up balance is valid for 30 days. When it expires, it freezes rather than being deleted, and buying more credit reactivates it. ### How much do developers earn on CoreClaw? CoreClaw pays developers 10% of what users spend on their Workers' successful records. On Scrape.ly, Actor creators keep 80% of event fees. ### What's the cheapest way to scrape Google Maps reviews? On Scrape.ly, the Google Maps Reviews Scraper costs $0.36 per 1,000 reviews with platform usage included, and the free $5 monthly credit covers about 14,000 reviews. Our guide to [scraping Google Maps reviews](https://scrape.ly/blog/scrape-google-maps-reviews.md) shows the input and a real run. Scrape.ly Store Google Maps reviews at $0.36 per 1,000 Paste a place URL or a search, pick how many reviews and the sort order, and export reviews with ratings, dates and owner replies.
