Screenshot API for AI agents. Capture any website as PNG, JPEG, WebP, or PDF with a single tool call. Supports full-page capture, device emulation (iPhone, iPad, Pixel, MacBook), dark mode, ad blocking, cookie banner removal, custom viewports, and CSS selector hiding. Includes cache checking (free, doesn't count against quota) and real-time usage monitoring. Stealth mode defeats most bot detection. Free tier: 50 screenshots/month, no credit card required.
Overview
SnapRender — Screenshot API with AI Agents support
Give your AI agent eyes on the web. SnapRender captures pixel-perfect screenshots of any website and returns them directly to your agent — no browser setup, no infrastructure, no headless Chrome headaches.

What Your Agent Can Do
take_screenshot — Capture any URL as PNG, JPEG, WebP, or PDF
- Full-page or viewport-only capture
- Device emulation: iPhone 14, iPhone 15 Pro, Pixel 7, iPad Pro, MacBook Pro
- Dark mode rendering for CSS
prefers-color-scheme - Built-in ad blocker and cookie banner removal
- Custom viewport dimensions (320–3840px wide)
- CSS selector hiding and click-before-capture
- Configurable quality and post-load delay
check_screenshot_cache — Check if a screenshot is already cached before capturing. Doesn't count against your quota — great for agents that revisit the same pages.
get_usage — Monitor your monthly screenshot usage, limits, and remaining credits in real time.
