ScreenshotCore started as a problem we kept running into: needing reliable website capture without the overhead of running browsers ourselves.
We tried Puppeteer. We tried Playwright. They work fine locally, but the moment you push them to production things get complicated fast.
Chrome binaries that bloat your Docker image. Memory limits that crash your Lambda functions. Version mismatches that break rendering without warning. Scaling headaches every time traffic spikes. And constant maintenance just to keep the thing running.
Instead of building features, you end up managing browsers.
ScreenshotCore is a single REST API that handles the rendering for you. You send a request with a URL, we capture it and return the result. No browser setup, no ongoing maintenance, no infrastructure to think about.
We handle the rendering fleet, the scaling, and the delivery. You get back a screenshot, PDF, or video and move on to the next feature.
We're not trying to be everything. We're focused on making website rendering reliable and accessible via API. That means PNG screenshots, PDFs, and video captures — done well, with a predictable API and honest pricing.
Clear APIs, predictable behavior, and documentation that actually helps. No marketing fluff, no unnecessary complexity.
One endpoint, one API key, one straightforward integration. We don't add complexity where simplicity works.
You know exactly what you're paying for. No feature gating between plans, no surprise overage bills.
We prioritize stability over shipping hype. If the API is down, nothing else matters.
ScreenshotCore is used by developers building real products. We're adding features based on real use cases — not roadmap slides. If something is missing or broken, we want to hear about it.
