Screenshot API with 25+ Features
Everything you need to capture, convert, and extract intelligence from any URL — one endpoint, zero infrastructure.
AI-Powered Content Extraction
You don't just get an image. You get structured data alongside it — prices, headings, CTAs, metadata — extracted automatically. No competitor does this.
- Structured JSON with every screenshot
- Extracts prices, headings, buttons, metadata
- Zero config — works on any page
- Feed directly into your data pipeline

Take Viewport or Full Page Screenshots
Capture exactly what you need — a viewport-sized snapshot, a full scrolling page, or a specific element clipped by CSS selector. Shotbase handles rendering, scrolling, and stitching.
- Viewport, full-page, or element-level captures
- Custom width, height, and device emulation
- Retina / HiDPI support up to 3× scale
- PNG, JPEG, WebP, and PDF output
Automated & Scheduled Captures Without Manual Effort
Set up recurring screenshot jobs for any URL — monitor competitor pricing, track visual changes, archive pages — without managing cron jobs, queues, or browsers.
- Hourly, daily, or weekly schedules
- Webhook delivery on completion
- Batch URL lists with parallel processing
- 30-day visual history per URL
One method.
Every platform.
Our SDKs wrap the REST API with typed interfaces and automatic retries. Or call the endpoint directly — no magic required.
- TypeScript types for every response field
- Automatic retry with exponential backoff
- Batch support & webhook delivery
- Full mock server for offline testing
