Connect Firecrawl to your AI agent
Firecrawl automates web crawling and data extraction, enabling organizations to gather content, index sites, and gain insights from online sources at scale
We set up the connection using your own Firecrawl account, with keys you control, and keep it running. Your agent picks it up and starts doing the work.
Actions
What your agent can do in Firecrawl
Each one is a real action the agent can take on its own, the same things a person clicking around Firecrawl could do. Read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against your policy.

Setup
How we connect it
- 1
Connect your account
You create a key in Firecrawl, a key you create and control, and paste it in once. It lives in a secrets store on your server, not with us.
- 2
Set the guardrails
Read-only by default. You choose which write actions the agent may take, and anything outside that policy gets confirmed with you first.
- 3
We keep it running
Health checks on every connection, updates handled for you, and we watch the first week of activity to make sure the work lands.
FAQ
Firecrawl questions, answered.
With a key you create and control. You paste it in once, it is stored in a secrets store on your server, permissions are scoped to the minimum the agent needs, and you can revoke it at any time.
The actions Firecrawl's API allows, the same things a person clicking around the app could do. Connections start read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against the policy you set before the agent takes them.
Connections are priced per tool on top of the base plan. Some are included, some are premium. See pricing for how connection charges work.
Standard tools are ready inside 7 business days of the setup call. We test the connection end to end, walk you through how the agent uses it, and watch the first week of activity.
