Firecrawl launches keyless endpoints, challenging Exa and Tavily with free tier
devdigest · x · 2026-08-28
Firecrawl has launched 'Keyless' mode, allowing developers to search, scrape, and interact with web data without an API key. Every developer gets 1,000 free credits monthly automatically, with sign-up only required for higher limits. Available via MCP, CLI, and API, it aims to remove friction for coding agents and prevent demo failures caused by key management issues.
