Add it to any project with `stripe projects add firecrawl/api`. ## Overview [Stripe Projects](https://projects.dev) provisions third-party services from the terminal and syncs their credentials to your `.env`. Firecrawl is one of the providers, so one command creates a Firecrawl account, writes an API key into your project, and lets you pick a plan. Paid plans bill through the payment method on your Stripe account. | You get | Detail | | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Account** | A Firecrawl account keyed on your Stripe account's email. If that email already has a Firecrawl account, it is reused. | | **API key** | A workspace API key written to your `.env`. One key covers every Firecrawl endpoint. | | **Plan** | Free by default. Upgrade to Hobby, Standard, or Growth, monthly or yearly, from the CLI. | | **Dashboard** | `stripe projects open firecrawl` signs you in to the Firecrawl dashboard. | ## Quick start ```bash theme={null} stripe plugin install projects stripe projects init stripe projects add firecrawl/api --name firecrawl stripe projects env --pull ``` `--name firecrawl` sets the local resource name, which becomes the prefix of the variables the CLI writes. With it the key lands in `FIRECRAWL_API_KEY`, which the Firecrawl [SDKs](/sdks/overview) and [CLI](/sdks/cli) read automatically. Without it, the resource is called `firecrawl-api` and the key lands in `FIRECRAWL_API_API_KEY`. The CLI also writes `FIRECRAWL_API_BASE_URL` and `FIRECRAWL_DOCUMENTATION_URL`. Both are informational. The SDKs read `FIRECRAWL_API_URL`, and only for self-hosted deployments; a Stripe-provisioned account uses the hosted API, which is the default, so leave `FIRECRAWL_API_URL` unset. From here, follow the [Node.js](/quickstarts/nodejs) or [Python](/quickstarts/python) quickstart, or the [SDK overview](/sdks/overview) for other languages. The key works with every endpoint: [search](/features/search), [scrape](/features/scrape), [crawl](/features/crawl), [map](/features/map), [extract](/features/extract), [interact](/features/interact), [parse](/features/parse), and [monitor](/features/monitoring). ## Catalog Run `stripe projects catalog firecrawl` for the live list. The CLI shows the final price before you confirm anything. | Slug | Kind | What it is | | -------------------- | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `firecrawl/api` | Service | The Firecrawl API. Provisions the account and the API key. Free tier by default. | | `firecrawl/free` | Plan | The Free plan. No card needed. | | `firecrawl/hobby` | Plan | The Hobby plan. Asks for `Monthly` or `Yearly`. | | `firecrawl/standard` | Plan | The Standard plan. Asks for `Monthly` or `Yearly`. | | `firecrawl/growth` | Plan | The Growth plan. Asks for `Monthly` or `Yearly`. | Plans and prices match [firecrawl.dev/pricing](https://www.firecrawl.dev/pricing). Scale and Enterprise are not offered through Stripe Projects; [talk to us](https://www.firecrawl.dev/enterprise) for those. ## Manage the resource ```bash theme={null} # Add a payment method to your Stripe account once stripe projects billing add # Move to a paid plan; the CLI asks which plan and which billing interval stripe projects upgrade firecrawl # Rotate the API key, then pull the new value into .env stripe projects rotate firecrawl stripe projects env --pull # Remove Firecrawl from this project stripe projects remove firecrawl ``` Upgrades use a Stripe [Shared Payment Token](https://docs.stripe.com/agentic-commerce/concepts/shared-payment-tokens), so Firecrawl never sees your card details. The plan shows up in your Firecrawl dashboard like any other subscription. To go back to Free, run `stripe projects upgrade firecrawl` and pick `free`, or change the plan from [Billing](https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/settings?tab=billing) in the dashboard. ## Accounts and billing * **One Stripe account, one Firecrawl account.** Firecrawl looks up your Stripe account's email. A new email gets a new Firecrawl account, already verified, with a team and a default API key. An email that already has a Firecrawl account reuses the team it linked through Stripe before; the first time, it gets a new team named `via stripe` in its own organization, so Stripe billing stays separate from your other Firecrawl teams. * **Everyone on the Stripe account can act on the linked Firecrawl account** through Projects, in line with Stripe's model. The Firecrawl dashboard shows the account under the Stripe account's email. * **Paid plans are Firecrawl subscriptions**, paid with your Shared Payment Token and reported by `stripe projects spend`. Credits, rate limits, and features match the same plan bought on firecrawl.dev. ## Coding agents Stripe Projects is built for agents as much as for people. Stripe publishes a [skill](https://docs.stripe.com/projects#coding-agent) that teaches Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other agents the Projects CLI, and `stripe projects llm-context` bundles this page with the guidance of every other provider in the project. ```bash theme={null} npx skills add https://docs.stripe.com --skill stripe-projects -g -y ``` When an agent provisions Firecrawl: copy the slug from `stripe projects catalog firecrawl --json` rather than guessing it, pass `--name firecrawl`, run `stripe projects env --pull` and use `FIRECRAWL_API_KEY` from the environment rather than editing `.env`, and leave paid upgrades to the human, since they charge the card on the Stripe account. `--accept-tos` accepts the [Firecrawl Terms of Service](https://www.firecrawl.dev/terms-of-service) on the human's behalf, so confirm with them first. The rest of the agent setup is on [Build with AI](/ai-onboarding). ## Troubleshooting | What you see | What to do | | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Provider connection requires re-authentication` | Run `stripe projects link firecrawl`, then retry. | | `Unknown provider or category: firecrawl` | Run `stripe plugin upgrade projects`, then `stripe projects catalog firecrawl --refresh`. | | Paid provisioning fails | Run `stripe projects billing add` to confirm a payment method. If your Firecrawl account already has a paid plan, change it from the dashboard instead. | | The key lands in `FIRECRAWL_API_API_KEY` | You provisioned without `--name`. Export it as `FIRECRAWL_API_KEY`, or remove the resource and add it again with `--name firecrawl`. | Still stuck?
