Where Context.dev runs out of road
A single API for scraping pages to LLM-ready markdown, crawling sites, web search, structured extraction and brand data — billed from one credit pool instead of five vendors.
Context.dev's own listed limits, in its words:
- Credit-metered across six different products, so forecasting a month's spend takes more arithmetic than a flat seat price
- The free plan simply stops at 500 credits rather than degrading, which is honest but abrupt mid-build
- SSO, custom limits and the 99.9% SLA are Enterprise-only
