About CRW Web Scraper
The open-source alternative to Firecrawl. One static binary, ~50 MB RAM idle, Firecrawl-compatible REST API (`/v1/scrape`, `/v1/crawl`, `/v1/extract`, `/v1/map`, `/v1/search`) plus first-class MCP. Self-host free under AGPL-3.0, or hit our managed API at `api.fastcrw.com`. Reproducible 63.74% truth-recall on the public 1,000-URL dataset (`diagnose_3way.py`, 2026-05-08) — see fastcrw.com/benchmarks. Built in Rust because every millisecond of agent latency compounds. Works with: Claude Code · Cursor · Windsurf · Cline · Copilot · Continue.dev ·…
