Promo Codes, Notifications & Webhooks
Major release adding promo codes for deposits, in-app notifications, enriched webhook payloads, per-request webhook URLs, and significant scraping improvements.
New Features
6Promo code system
You can now apply promo codes when depositing funds to receive bonus credits. Enter codes directly on the billing page during checkout.
In-app notification center
A new notification bell in the dashboard alerts you to important events like promo code activations and account updates.
Enriched webhook payloads
Webhook job.completed events now include richer data. You can also set a per-request webhook_url to receive results at different endpoints for each scrape.
Stripe invoices for deposits
Every deposit now generates a proper Stripe invoice, making it easier to track payments and manage accounting.
Improved extraction quality
Better text and markdown output from structured data sources. Collection pages, financial data, and generic pages now return richer formatted content.
Blog added to navigation
The AlterLab blog is now accessible from the main site navigation across all pages.
Improvements
1Faster API response times
Scrape API responses are now faster thanks to adaptive polling and optimized backend processing. You should notice quicker turnaround on synchronous requests.
Bug Fixes
4Duplicate credit grant prevention
Fixed an issue where webhook retries from Stripe could result in duplicate credit grants to your account.
Usage modal data corrected
Fixed the usage detail modal showing incorrect format and location information for individual scrape requests.
SSL certificate fallback
Sites with incomplete SSL certificate chains no longer fail. The scraper now automatically falls back to handle partial certificate configurations.
Welcome modal scrape count corrected
Fixed the welcome modal displaying 1,000 free scrapes instead of the correct 5,000.
Plus 260 internal changes for stability and performance.
