One Octoparse account works everywhere: the user center on the website, AI Assistant, Octoparse Desktop, the Octoparse browser extension, the MCP server, the API, the CLI, and Data Hub. The tasks you build are saved to your account, and your plan applies to all of them.

​
Sign up and sign in

Signing up is free. Sign up on octoparse.com with your email, or with a Google, Microsoft, or Apple account. Use the same sign-in in every Octoparse product.

​
Your user center

The user center on the website is where you manage your account and your tasks:

​
Connect your code and AI agents

The MCP server, the API, and the CLI all sign in to your account. Use OAuth to sign in from the browser, or an API key for automated and headless setups. One API key works for all three. Keep API keys private: don’t commit them to code or share them in screenshots. See MCP server, API, and CLI: Get an API key and log in.

​
Plans and billing

Octoparse uses hybrid billing: your plan is a subscription, and credits pay for usage-based items such as building tasks with AI Assistant. Credits come in two kinds: monthly credits included with your plan, and credits you add yourself. See Billing & plans and pricing.

​
Enterprise: admin and agent accounts

On the Enterprise plan, your organization gets one admin account, plus agent accounts for your team members. (Agent accounts are unrelated to Cloud Agent or AI agents.) The admin account:
  • Allocates the account’s cloud resources and anti-blocking resources to agent accounts.
  • Can see each agent account’s cloud tasks and their status, such as Ready, Running, Stopped, and Completed, but not the content of an agent account’s local tasks.
  • Can copy an agent account’s task into the admin account, but can’t edit, create, or delete tasks in an agent account.
Each agent account sees only its own tasks, not other agent accounts’ tasks. If an agent account runs out of credits or reaches its task limit, Octoparse asks it to contact the admin account. To set up Enterprise, contact support@octoparse.com.
