Olostep

Olostep is a developer-focused web data API that positions itself as infrastructure for AI agents rather than a generic scraping tool. The homepage markets seven core capabilities—scrape, crawl, map, search, answer, monitor, and batch—through a single API with native Python and NodeJS SDKs, webhooks, MCP server support, and a live playground. It emphasizes clean, AI-ready outputs like Markdown, HTML, JSON, and screenshots. The company leads with the narrative of the 'Web's second user,' meaning software and AI agents that consume web content programmatically. While public metrics such as revenue, growth, team size, and pricing are not disclosed, the product look and messaging suggest an early-stage, self-serve API platform aiming at AI agent developers and data-hungry startups. The broad feature set is impressive but places Olostep in a crowded and technically demanding market with significant legal and anti-bot risks.
