Firecrawl
Turns websites into clean markdown or structured data for LLMs; crawl, scrape, search API.
Lead-list building, competitor and price monitoring, content feeds for a client's AI assistant.
Client work is restricted: read the licence before selling a service.
Strong demand for fresh lead and market data. AGPL: self-hosting inside a client service needs care; the hosted API avoids that.
AGPL-3.0 for the core (LICENSE file read; contact Sideguide Technologies Inc.); README states the SDKs and some UI components are MIT
Restricted by AGPL: you can self-host it for a client and charge for the work, but if you modify it and offer it over a network you must make the modified source available to its users; embedding it in a closed-source product needs a different licence from the vendor.
Not archived; last push 2026-10-07. README says the cloud version 'includes additional features' over the open-source one (the comparison is an image; the list was not read). Self-host notes mention the proprietary Fire-engine as a separate engine. Legal/ToS: README puts responsibility for respecting sites' policies on the user; respects robots.txt by default. LLM extraction features need paid model API keys. No GPU needed.
