## About

Firecrawl MCP is the Model Context Protocol server from Firecrawl, the web data platform. It connects MCP-compatible AI clients such as ChatGPT, Codex, Claude and Cursor to Firecrawl's web search, scraping and parsing tools.

The server gives an AI client tools to search the web, scrape a page and parse documents. Setup is covered in the Firecrawl documentation, which describes three ways to connect. A keyless option lets you try Search, Scrape and Parse within daily limits without an account or key. A sign-in option uses OAuth: the client opens a browser window where you sign in to Firecrawl and approve a team, and you can review and revoke connections from MCP settings. An API key option configures a bearer token in your client and needs no browser.

The page also offers one-click native connectors for ChatGPT, Codex and Claude, and points users of Claude Desktop, Cowork and the Code tab to a separate guide that connects under the server name firecrawl. Copilot users are directed to a separate guide for the Copilot CLI and VS Code.

The documentation says that signing in and using an API key both reach the full tool surface on your team's plan. The keyless setup is limited to Search, Scrape and Parse within daily limits.

Firecrawl MCP is aimed at developers and people building AI agents who want their assistants to read live web content. The documentation includes separate setup instructions for agents and for humans.

Pricing is not stated on this page beyond the keyless daily limits and the note that full access depends on your team's plan. Check the Firecrawl plans and billing page for current prices.
