Launch Week III (New)
Check out what’s new coming to Firecrawl in Launch Week III (April 14 - 20th)
Day 5 – Developer Day
Overview
Today is all about developers. We’re rolling out upgrades that make building with Firecrawl smoother and more scalable — whether you’re working in Python, Rust, or your favorite editor.
We’ve introduced a fully async Python SDK with named params and return types, powerful new features in the Rust SDK, expanded team support on every plan, and a brand new Firecrawl Dark Theme for VSCode and compatible editors.
Key Features
- Major Python SDK Improvements: Named params, return types, and Async added to our Python SDK
- Rust SDK Upgrades: Batch scraping, job cancellation, llms.txt generation, smarter search.
- Firecrawl Dark Theme: A sleek new theme for VSCode, Cursor, and Windsurf. Download it here.
- QoL Improvements: Plenty of small but meaningful changes to improve dev experience like no more team caps. All plans now include up to 20 seats.
Day 4 – LLMstxt.new
Overview
Today we’re announcing http://llmstxt.new — the fastest way to turn any website into a clean, consolidated text file for LLMs.
Just add llmstxt.new/
in front of any URL, and you’ll get back a plain .txt
file, optimized for AI training and inference. No boilerplate, no noise — just useful content.
Built on top of Firecrawl, this tool makes it effortless to prepare real-world web content for use in LLM pipelines.
Key Features
- Instant Usage: Just add
llmstxt.new/
before any URL. - Two Outputs:
llms.txt
for concise summaries,llms-full.txt
for full content. - API Friendly: Call via
http://llmstxt.new/{YOUR_URL}
or with a Firecrawl API key for full output. - LLM-Ready Format: Designed for both training and inference contexts.
Day 3 – /extract v2
Overview
Today we’re launching /extract v2, a major upgrade to our extraction system — powered by the FIRE-1 agent.
With full support for pagination, multi-step flows, and dynamic interactions, extract v2 goes way beyond what we shipped back in January. It’s also now possible to extract data without a URL, using a built-in search layer to find the content you’re after.
We’ve rebuilt the internals from the ground up — improved models, better architecture, and significantly better performance across our internal benchmarks.
Key Features
- FIRE-1 Integration: Automatically handles page actions, navigation, and interaction.
- Multi-Page Extraction: Extract data across paginated or step-based flows.
- No URL Required: Use built-in search to extract content without a direct link.
- Improved Accuracy: New models and architecture mean better, faster results.
Day 2 - FIRE-1 Agent
Overview
Meet FIRE-1, Firecrawl’s first AI Agent built to take web scraping to the next level. With intelligent navigation and interaction capabilities, FIRE-1 can go far beyond traditional scraping methods.
From handling pagination to interacting with dynamic site elements like buttons and links, FIRE-1 allows for powerful, context-aware scraping and extraction workflows.
Key Features
- Smart Navigation: Move through paginated or multi-step content automatically.
- Dynamic Interaction: Click buttons, follow links, and interact with JavaScript-rendered components.
Day 1 - Change Tracking
Overview
Change tracking is a powerful feature that allows you to monitor and detect changes in web content over time. It is available in both the JavaScript and Python SDKs.
Key Features
- Detect Changes: Identify if a webpage has changed since the last scrape.
- View Specific Changes: Access detailed information about what has changed between scrapes.
- Structured Data: Receive structured data about the changes.
- Visibility Control: Manage the visibility of changes on your website.
Using the changeTracking
format, you can effectively monitor changes on a website and receive comprehensive information about the timestamp of the previous scrape, the result of the comparison between the two page versions, and the visibility of the current page/URL.
Day 0 - Firecrawl Editor Theme
Overview
We’re excited to release our official Firecrawl Editor Theme! Available now for most editors including Cursor, Windsurf, and more.
Key Features
The Firecrawl Editor Theme provides a clean, focused coding experience for everyone. Our color palette emphasizes readability while maintaining the Firecrawl brand identity.
