# Bright Data APIs
Bright Data provides infrastructure for web data extraction at scale. Four primary APIs cover different use cases — always pick the most specific tool for the job.
## Choosing the Right API
| Use Case | API | Why |
|----------|-----|-----|
| Scrape any webpage by URL (no interaction) | Web Unlocker | HTTP-based, auto-bypasses bot detection, cheapest |
| Google / Bing / Yandex search results | SERP API | Specialized for SERP extraction, returns structured data |
| Structured data from Amazon, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, etc. | Web Scraper API | Pre-built scrapers, no parsing needed |
| Click, scroll, fill forms, run JS, intercept XHR | Browser API | Full browser automation |
| Puppeteer / Playwright / Selenium automation | Browser API | Connects via CDP/WebDriver |
