How Long Does PagePeeker Keep Cached Website Screenshots?

PagePeeker lists a 20-day caching time for both free thumbnail tiers. That is separate from the FAQ’s statement that the Free Branded service never expires.

PagePeeker lists a 20-day caching time for screenshots on both of its free thumbnail tiers: Free Branded and Free Unbranded. That figure describes screenshot caching, not how long you can use the Free Branded service. The duration shown on PagePeeker’s official Free Thumbnails page does not establish a cache period for paid plans.

What PagePeeker says about screenshot retention

The official Free Thumbnails page lists “20 days” as the caching time for both Free Branded and Free Unbranded thumbnails. The page was accessed on October 3, 2026; PagePeeker does not state there when this policy was last updated.

Does “never expires” mean screenshots stay cached indefinitely?

No. PagePeeker’s FAQ says the Free Branded version “never expires and will always be free.” That statement concerns continued use of the free service. On the same page, the plan comparison separately gives a 20-day caching time for screenshots. Service availability and the retention period for an individual cached image are different things.

What is not specified

The cited page does not establish the cache duration for paid plans. It also does not explain whether a new request resets the 20-day period, how PagePeeker identifies a cached screenshot, exactly when an entry expires, or whether a user can force a fresh capture. Do not assume those behaviors from the free-tier figure; check PagePeeker’s current documentation or ask the service if they affect your workflow.

Need screenshots with a different caching policy?

ScreenshotNeo is a website screenshot API and MCP server for developers. Its caching option lets you choose a TTL, so you can set the cache duration for your own captures rather than relying on a stated fixed period.

Or skip the browser setup

Make a GET request with your URL and API key; see the ScreenshotNeo API documentation for the available parameters.

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.webp

ScreenshotNeo accepts cookie or consent banners before capture and removes more than 60 known consent platforms, newsletter popups, and chat widgets; each step can be turned off. Bot checks, blank pages, timeouts, failed loads, and cache hits cost nothing, and responses identify page verdict and billing status in headers. An MCP server provides screenshot and page-information tools for AI agents. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots per month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000 shots.
