Website Screenshot Pro — full-page shots that actually wait for the page

Screenshot any page, or a whole batch, at desktop / laptop / tablet / mobile sizes. Full-page captures that include lazy-loaded images instead of cutting them off, with cookie banners dismissed so they aren't sitting across your shot.

No API key. No signup. Pay per screenshot produced — a URL that fails is never charged.

Use it as a website screenshot API for thumbnails, visual archives, link previews, monitoring, SEO audits, or agent pipelines: full-page PNG or JPEG capture of any URL, desktop or mobile viewport, retina scale, dark mode, batch of up to 100 URLs in one run.

Why shots come out wrong elsewhere, and what this does about it

The usual problem	What this actor does
Lazy-loaded images render as blank boxes	Scrolls the entire page to trigger loading, returns to top, then captures
Web fonts swap mid-capture, text looks wrong	Waits on document.fonts.ready before shooting
A cookie banner covers the content	Best-effort dismissal of common consent buttons (can be turned off)
Full-page capture is clipped	True fullPage capture, with the real page height reported back
One URL per run	Batch input — and one bad URL never aborts the others
A failed run still costs you	Only successful screenshots are billed

Input

{ "url": "https://example.com", "device": "desktop", "fullPage": true }

Batch, mobile, dark mode:

{
  "urls": ["https://a.com", "https://b.com"],
  "device": "mobile",
  "colorScheme": "dark",
  "format": "jpeg",
  "quality": 85
}

Field	Type	Default	Notes
url / urls	string / array	—	One page, or a batch
device	desktop | laptop | tablet | mobile	desktop	Tablet 2×, mobile 3× retina
fullPage	boolean	true	Whole page vs viewport only
format	png | jpeg	png	JPEG for smaller files
quality	integer 1–100	85	JPEG only
colorScheme	light | dark	light	Renders the page's dark mode
dismissCookieBanners	boolean	true	Best effort, never fails the shot
extraWaitMs	integer	500	Extra settle time for animations
maxUrls	integer	20	Cap, and therefore your budget cap

Output

One record per URL. Successful captures include a direct image URL:

{
  "url": "https://example.com",
  "ok": true,
  "status": 200,
  "title": "Example Domain",
  "device": "desktop",
  "viewport": "1920x1080",
  "deviceScaleFactor": 1,
  "fullPage": true,
  "format": "png",
  "pageWidth": 1920,
  "pageHeight": 4310,
  "bytes": 812344,
  "tookMs": 3120,
  "screenshotUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/.../records/example-com-1920xfull.png"
}

Failures are returned, not thrown:

{ "url": "https://broken.example", "ok": false, "error": "net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED", "tookMs": 1200 }

For agents and automation

• Capability: capture a rendered screenshot of one or many web pages
• Required input: url or urls
• Returns: one JSON record per URL; screenshotUrl is a directly fetchable image
• Bounded: maxUrls caps the run; failures isolate per URL
• Side effects: none — reads the page, stores images in this run's key-value store
• Determinism: layout-dependent; identical input on an unchanged page yields an equivalent image

Pricing — $0.0048 per screenshot, failures free

Pay-per-event: one flat $0.0048 per screenshot actually produced. A URL that fails — DNS error, timeout, dead page — is returned as an {ok: false} record and is never charged.

Compared with other paid screenshot actors on Apify (prices checked 2026-08-07):

Actor	Price	Billing unit
This actor	$0.0048	per screenshot produced — failures free
i-scraper/website-screenshot	$0.006	per dataset item
crawlerbros/screenshot-url	$0.01	per actor start — a failed run still bills
onescales/website-screenshot-pro	per-start fee	plus your own platform compute

That is 20% under the cheapest per-screenshot incumbent and less than half of per-start billing, with the honesty guarantee on top: you pay for images, not attempts.

Limits (honest ones)

• Pages that hard-block headless browsers (aggressive bot walls) may fail; you are not charged.
• Cookie-banner dismissal is best-effort pattern matching — exotic consent widgets can survive it.
• Full-page capture walks up to 60,000px of page height; beyond that the capture is of the walked region.
• Batch cap is 100 URLs per run (maxUrls).
