Steady API Scrapers MCP server

Steady API: no-browser scrapers you can call in one HTTP request

Five small, reliable data extractors that run on Apify. None of them launch a browser, so runs are fast (usually 5 to 20 seconds) and cheap. Every tool returns clean JSON you can drop into a spreadsheet, a database, or an LLM prompt.

New Apify accounts get free monthly credit, which is enough to try every tool here.

Quick start (Python, no dependencies)

export APIFY_TOKEN=your_token   # https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations
cd python
python youtube_transcript.py "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"
python google_hotels.py "hotels in tokyo"
python google_ads_transparency.py nike.com
python google_trends.py chatgpt gemini claude
python threads_profile.py zuck

Quick start (Node 18+)

APIFY_TOKEN=your_token node node/run.mjs steadyapi~google-hotels-scraper '{"queries":["hotels in paris"],"maxHotelsPerQuery":10}'

Ready-made examples

Each tool also has one-click example tasks on Apify, for example:

• Compare hotel prices in Paris
• See every Google ad a competitor runs
• Compare search interest for AI chatbots
• Download YouTube subtitles as SRT
• Search Threads posts by keyword

How billing works

You pay per result row returned. Rows that describe an error (for example a private video) are also returned and billed, so you always see what happened to every input. Paid Apify plans get an extra 10 to 30 percent off automatically.

Using with AI agents

All five tools are available through the Apify MCP server, so Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients can call them directly.
