Managed execution
Each Crawlora platform API is designed around a specific data surface. Instead of exposing a generic fetch endpoint, Crawlora combines endpoint-specific request logic, managed infrastructure, parsing, normalization, billing, and Playground-tested examples.
Request behavior is tuned for the target platform and endpoint type.
Supported endpoints can use managed proxy routing to improve reliability and reduce infrastructure work.
Dynamic pages can be routed through managed browser instances where JavaScript rendering is required.
Challenge pages and unusable upstream responses are detected and surfaced clearly.
Results are returned as documented JSON instead of raw HTML.
Test the same route from Docs and Playground before production integration.
Coverage map
These cards are generated from the active endpoint catalog, so the landing page reflects the same API surface used by Docs and Playground.

Yes — /letterboxd/film returns the average rating, and /letterboxd/film/{slug}/rating-histogram returns the full star-rating distribution, alongside reviews via /letterboxd/film/{slug}/reviews. It collects only public data, not private diary or list entries.
Collecting publicly accessible film, rating, and review data is generally permissible if you respect Letterboxd's terms of use, robots directives, rate limits, and applicable law. This is for public data you are authorized to collect.
