About Site-Shot

Site-Shot is a screenshot service that renders web pages with a real Chromium engine through a simple HTTP API, with official SDKs for Node.js and Python, geotargeted captures, storage, and scheduled captures on paid plans. A confirmed account's API key includes a monthly free allowance, and a free in-browser capture tool on the homepage needs no signup or key at all. It is aimed at link previews, monitoring dashboards, and visual testing.
