Website Screenshot & PDF Generator — Full-Page, Cookie-Banner-Free

Capture any public URL as a pixel-perfect PNG, JPEG, WebP, or PDF — with the two things screenshot tools usually get wrong actually solved:

1. Real full-page capture. Sticky headers, floating navbars and chat widgets are automatically "un-stuck" so they appear once, in place — not repeated or floating over your content. Lazy-loaded images are scrolled into loading before the shot.
2. Clean shots by default. Cookie/GDPR consent walls and ad slots are removed (or auto-accepted, your choice) so screenshots don't arrive ruined by overlays.

You are charged only for screenshots that succeed. No startup fee. Failed captures cost $0.

Quick start

{
  "urls": ["https://stripe.com", "https://news.ycombinator.com"]
}

That's it — two clean, full-page PNGs land in your run's storage, with direct image URLs in the dataset:

{
  "url": "https://stripe.com/",
  "status": 200,
  "format": "png",
  "imageUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/…/records/001-stripe-com.png",
  "fullPage": true,
  "device": "Desktop",
  "bytes": 5859948
}

Pricing

Pay per event: a small fixed price per successful screenshot, plus standard Apify platform usage for the browser time your run consumes. No subscription, no startup fee, failed captures free. Stop or scale any time.

Use it from code or automation

Run via the Apify API, scheduler, or any Apify SDK/client:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/runlayer~web-screenshot-pro/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"urls": ["https://example.com"], "format": "png"}'

Works out of the box with Apify Schedules (recurring captures), Webhooks (notify your systems when a batch finishes), Zapier/Make/n8n integrations, and the MCP server for AI agents.

FAQ

Is this legal / responsible? The actor renders public web pages you direct it to — the same thing your browser does — and hides overlay elements cosmetically before capture. It extracts and stores no page content or personal data. For authenticated captures, only use credentials for accounts you own or are authorized to use. You are responsible for the URLs you submit.

Why did my capture come back different from my browser? Some sites serve different content to datacenter IPs. Enable Apify residential proxy in the input for the most human-like rendering.

A screenshot failed — was I charged? No. Only successful captures are billed.
