In their own words
ApiFlash
ApiFlash is a cloud API for generating website screenshots, including full-page and mobile captures. Requests go through a unique HTTPS endpoint using an access key and GET or POST methods. Google Chrome instances render pages, with controls for viewport, CSS-element capture, JavaScript injection, headers, cookies and time zones. Images can be returned as PNG, JPEG or WebP, or exported to Amazon S3 and compatible storage. The API runs on AWS Lambda and applies a leaky-bucket limit of 20 requests per second, with bursts up to 400. Each capture uses a separate Chrome instance that is discarded with its temporary data. Plans include 100 screenshots free; paid plans start at $7 a month for 1,000 screenshots, with higher-volume plans available. Strict bot protections can block captures, and ApiFlash recommends supplying a proxy in that case. Custom enterprise plans include managed proxies and IP geolocation. Support is available by email and live chat.
