Frequently asked questions
How does Firecrawl pricing work?
Firecrawl uses a credit-based system. You get 500 free lifetime credits to start (no credit card required). Base cost is 1 credit per page scraped. Advanced features like JSON extraction (+4 credits) or enhanced mode (+4 credits) consume additional credits per page. Paid plans start at $16/month with 3,000 monthly credits.
Can Firecrawl handle JavaScript-heavy websites?
Yes! Firecrawl renders pages in a full browser environment before extracting content — this means it handles React, Next.js, Angular, and any other JavaScript framework. It also automatically bypasses common anti-bot protections, removes cookie consent banners, and waits for dynamic content to load before extraction.
What formats does Firecrawl return?
Firecrawl can return content in multiple formats: Markdown (default and most popular for LLM consumption), HTML, raw HTML, structured JSON (with LLM-powered extraction), screenshots, links, and page metadata. You can request multiple formats in a single call.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Firecrawl MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
