Installing Manycrawl and supported browsers

Manycrawl is a browser extension, which means there's nothing to download and no installer to run.

Manycrawl is a browser extension, which means there's nothing to download and no installer to run. The whole thing lives inside your browser. Here's how to get it running in under a minute, and which browsers it works in.

Installing Manycrawl

  1. Open the Manycrawl listing on the Chrome Web Store.

  2. Click Add to Chrome (or Add to Brave / Add to Edge — the button label changes depending on your browser).

  3. Confirm the permissions prompt. Manycrawl needs permission to read pages you scrape — that's how the browser-native scraping works. Nothing is sent to our servers.

  4. Pin the Manycrawl icon to your toolbar so it's one click away. Click the puzzle-piece icon in the top right of your browser, find Manycrawl, and hit the pin.

  5. Click the Manycrawl icon to open the app and create your free account.

That's it. You're ready to scrape, find emails, and enrich leads. The free plan gives you 500 actions a month with no card required.

Supported browsers

Manycrawl works in any Chromium-based browser. That covers most of the modern browser market — if you're not on Safari or Firefox, you're almost certainly fine.

Chrome

The primary supported browser. Chrome 110 or newer is required, which means anything from early 2023 onward. Most users are on a much more recent version automatically.

Brave

Works out of the box. Install from the Chrome Web Store — Brave accepts Chrome extensions natively. Brave's built-in ad and tracker blocking won't interfere with scraping, since Manycrawl runs in your tab the same way you'd browse manually.

Microsoft Edge

Works out of the box. Edge is built on Chromium, so it accepts Chrome Web Store extensions. The first time you install from the Chrome store in Edge, you may see a prompt asking you to allow extensions from other stores — accept it and you're good.

Opera

Works with one extra step. Opera supports Chrome extensions, but you'll need the free "Install Chrome Extensions" add-on from the Opera add-ons store first. Once that's installed, the Manycrawl listing on the Chrome Web Store will give you an "Add to Opera" button.

Arc, Vivaldi, and other Chromium browsers

Generally work, since they're built on the same Chromium engine. Install directly from the Chrome Web Store. If you hit an edge case, drop us a line.

What's not supported

Safari. Apple's extension system is separate from Chromium's, and we don't currently ship a Safari build. If you're on a Mac, install Chrome or Brave alongside Safari and use Manycrawl there.

Firefox. Mozilla uses its own extension format. A Firefox version isn't on the immediate roadmap — most of our users are on Chrome or a Chromium fork.

Mobile browsers. Manycrawl is a desktop tool. You need a real spreadsheet view to work effectively, and mobile Chrome doesn't support extensions.

Operating systems

Manycrawl runs anywhere Chromium runs:

  • Windows — Windows 10 and 11

  • macOS — Intel and Apple Silicon

  • Linux — Any distribution where you can install Chrome, Brave, or Edge

  • ChromeOS — Yes, it works on Chromebooks

Where your data lives after install

Worth knowing before you start filling it with leads: everything you build inside Manycrawl — tables, scraped content, enriched data — is stored locally in your browser. Nothing syncs to our servers. This has two practical implications:

  • Your data is private by default. We literally can't see it.

  • Your data is tied to that browser profile. If you switch computers, log into a different Chrome profile, or clear your browser data, you'll lose your tables unless you export them to CSV first.

Paid plans let you use Manycrawl on up to 3 devices, but each device keeps its own local data — there's no sync between them. Export to CSV whenever you want a portable backup.

Updating Manycrawl

Updates happen automatically. Chrome (and every Chromium browser) checks for extension updates in the background and installs them silently. You don't need to do anything to stay on the latest version. Lifetime users get every new enrichment type the moment it ships.

Uninstalling

If you ever want to remove Manycrawl: right-click the Manycrawl icon in your toolbar and choose Remove from Chrome (or your browser's equivalent). All local data is wiped along with the extension, so export anything you want to keep first.
