Kaabist vsFirecrawl.
Firecrawl turns pages into clean markdown or JSON for models, fast and at scale. Kaabist is for the flows around the data: logging in, waiting for your 2FA code, submitting once, and keeping that program working when the site changes.

Pricing · Free 1,000 credits; Hobby $19/month for 5,000; one credit per page, four more for JSON extraction. source
Side by side
| Capability | Kaabist | Firecrawl | Their documentation says |
|---|---|---|---|
| Logged-in, multi-step flows | Yes | Yes | Actions (click, write, wait) before a scrape, and profiles that keep a login. source |
| Resume a program from its checkpoint after a person answers | Yes | Partly | An interactive live view lets you type into the session; no paused program resumes from a checkpoint. source |
| Schedules and change detection | Yes | Yes | Monitor re-checks pages on a schedule and reports diffs. source |
| Signed webhooks | Yes | Yes | Signed webhooks. source |
| A coding agent builds the program over MCP | Yes | Yes | An official MCP server. source |
| Side-effect fences: a submit never runs twice | Yes | No | Built for reading pages; no mechanism for steps that must submit once. source |
| Self-healing locators, delivered as proposals you review | Yes | Unclear | Monitor promises stable field extraction; we found nothing on what happens when the page is redesigned. |

When to choose Firecrawl
You mostly read public pages, crawl or search the web for an LLM, and want markdown or schema-shaped JSON with as little setup as possible.
When to choose Kaabist
When the flow logs in, waits for a person, or submits something that must not happen twice, and you want it kept running as a versioned program rather than a script.
