Irmu - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Irmu is a cloud-based REST API platform that consolidates web scraping, JavaScript rendering, full-page screenshots, residential and datacenter proxy routing, and AI-powered structured data extraction under a single API key and unified credit pool. Designed for developers and engineering teams at organizations of any size, Irmu eliminates the overhead of managing separate authentication, quota, and billing contracts across multiple data collection services. All endpoints are accessed via HTTPS with no self-hosted or on-premises deployment required.

Irmu's core Crawl endpoint fetches any page through real headless Chrome with residential or datacenter IPs, supporting geotargeting at country, region, and city level at no additional credit cost on every request type. The AI Extract endpoint accepts a natural-language question about a fetched page and returns typed, confidence-scored JSON validated against a user-supplied schema, with DOM cleaning applied automatically to strip scripts, navigation, and boilerplate before field resolution. A bring-your-own language model option removes the standard AI credit surcharge. The Screenshot API delivers full-page JPEG captures as base64 at a flat credit rate, inclusive of premium IPs, geotargeting, and AI query parameters. The Proxy API routes requests through residential or datacenter pools with granular geotargeting. A Search API for structured SERP data and a Browser API for multi-step scripted sessions via JSON action sequences are planned additions to the platform.

Irmu targets use cases across e-commerce price monitoring, market research, competitive intelligence, SEO, AI and machine learning corpus collection, lead generation, and travel data aggregation. Pre-built integrations cover 30 high-value targets including Google Maps, Google Search, Google Shopping, Meta Ads Library, and major AI assistant interfaces. SDKs are available for Python, Node, PHP, Go, and Java. The dashboard provides per-key success telemetry, daily credit consumption breakdowns by site and key, team management, daily spend limits, and unlimited API key generation. Credits are charged only for requests that successfully return a target response; internally failed requests and uncovered domains are not billed. A free plan offering 200 credits per month requires no credit card.
