Examine API questions
- Is there an API for Examine?
- Examine does not offer a public data API for this, but Anakin Wire provides 4 maintained endpoints for examine.com. You call Anakin's REST API with an action ID and parameters and get structured JSON back; Anakin handles the browser, proxies, anti-bot, and parsing.
- How do I scrape Examine data?
- POST to https://api.anakin.io/v1/wire/task with your API key, the action ID, and its parameters, then poll GET /v1/wire/jobs/{id} until the job settles. There is nothing to install and no scraper to maintain — when examine.com changes its markup, Anakin updates the action.
- Do I need a Examine account?
- No. Every Examine action listed here runs anonymously — no account and no credentials required.
- What does the Examine API cost?
- Usage-based credits, charged per call and refunded automatically when a job fails. New accounts start with 300 free credits and no card. See anakin.io/pricing for the current rates.
