Firecrawl Review (September 2026): Alexandria, the $75M Series B, and Whether the 4.6 Rating Holds
Firecrawl raised a $75M Series B and launched Alexandria on Sept 22, 2026. Browsing Alexandria's tools is free, each tool call bills at its own listed credit price, and the pricing page has no Alexandria line. The 4.6 holds; here is who should turn it on.
Pros
- ✓Alexandria gives an agent one API for the live web, Firecrawl's own indexes, and paid data providers: 93 providers and 640 capabilities listed on the product page as of Sept 28
- ✓Tool discovery is free per the Alexandria docs, and every tool shows its execution price before you call it, so an agent can check cost before it spends
Cons
- ✕Alexandria has no row on the pricing page's credit table; each tool carries its own price, so there is no single number to budget against before you inspect the catalogue
- ✕The 21% answer-quality gain is Firecrawl's own internal evaluation with blind AI judging, not a third-party benchmark, and outside coverage describes the task set differently
Alexandria is the first Firecrawl product built for an agent that has to find which source holds the answer, and it arrived with plan prices unchanged. Existing customers should try it inside their current plan and set a per-key spend limit first. New evaluators should start on Hobby, move to Standard once monthly burn clears about 6,000 credits, and treat Alexandria as a reason to pick Firecrawl only if the agent's job is multi-source research. Rated 4.6 of 5, unchanged.
