Scraping www.google.com
www.google.com requires Camoufox (Tier 2) because the site uses advanced anti-detect (datadome strict mode, akamai, kasada). Cheaper engine tiers fail; this is the cheapest one that actually works.
Why Camoufox wins on www.google.com
Camoufox is a patched Firefox build with anti-fingerprint protections at the C++ level — properties like `navigator.webdriver`, WebGL vendor strings, and timing signatures all read as a real browser instead of a headless harness.
Cost math: at 10 credits per request, scraping www.google.com costs $1.00–$1.80 per 1,000 requests on the Starter tier. Compare to ScrapingBee ($14.70/1K) or Firecrawl (~$5.33/1K flat). For high-volume workloads on this domain, the credit-based model lands cheaper.
