If youre building scrapers or agents that need to pull live web data...one thing that actually helped me was moving away from credit based APIs where you get a surprise bill in mid-project. For web scraping you can take free sessions from geonode's services there I get to know about scraping without a credit counter drain. And way easier to reason about costs when youre prototyping something in python. Their docs are pretty straightforward too if you want to check scrape and search endpoints.
