Quick answer

Route by stack and operating model. Scrapy fits Python teams that want self-hosted crawlers, Crawlee fits Node and TypeScript teams, and Playwright fits jobs where JavaScript rendering is the hard part. Use Firecrawl or another scraping API when fast integration and AI-ready output matter, and use Octoparse or ParseHub when a no-code workflow is the better handoff.
