Account Setup

This guide walks you through creating an organization, choosing a plan, and generating your first API key.

Create an account

Go to extralt.com and sign up. You can use Google or GitHub.

Create an organization

After signing in, create an organization. Everything in Extralt is scoped to an organization: robots, runs, captures, credits, and API keys.

You can create multiple organizations, each with its own subscription and data. Use the org switcher at the bottom of the dashboard's left rail to switch between them.

Choose a plan

Your first organization starts on Start with 3,000 free credits, valid for 30 days, and no card. Start collects from Shopify, WooCommerce and Wix stores.

For custom crawlers, monthly credits and the dashboard Agent, subscribe to Scale from the subscription page in the dashboard. You'll be redirected to Stripe to complete your subscription.

See Credits & Billing for each Scale volume and extra credits.

Subscription plan selection page

Billing is handled by Stripe. Extralt never sees your payment information. You can manage your subscription anytime from the dashboard, which redirects to Stripe.

Generate an API key

  1. Open the dashboard
  2. Navigate to your API key settings
  3. Create a new API key

Your API key is scoped to the current organization. Keep it secret. If compromised, revoke it and create a new one.

API key settings page

Use the key in API requests with the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer your-api-key

See Authentication for details.
