- Requirements: Users must respect websites' policies when scraping and comply with robots.txt directives..
- Tags unique to firecrawl: ai, ai-agents, ai-crawler, ai-scraping.
- When you need to perform large-scale web scraping and data extraction tasks with support for AI-driven web interactions.
When NOT to use firecrawl
- If your project requires a tool that does not support AI-driven interactions and you prefer a simpler, more straightforward scraping solution.
- When you are looking for a solution that does not come with the AGPL-3.0 license, as this might not be compatible with your project's licensing requirements.
Choose Yuxi if…

- License: Yuxi is MIT, firecrawl is AGPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to Yuxi: docker, fastapi, harness, kbqa.
- Yuxi ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- - Yuxi is ideal if you are looking for an agent-driven platform that supports RAG retrieval, Milvus, and integrates Neo4j for managing knowledge bases and graphs.
When NOT to use Yuxi
- - Avoid Yuxi if you need a platform that heavily relies on LightRAG as the original integration has been replaced by a custom Milvus-based implementation.
- - Consider alternatives if you require advanced customization of document parsing beyond MinerU, PaddleX, and RapidOCR provided in Yuxi.
