Research Index, keyless access, and PII redaction ship

Firecrawl v2.11.0 ships the Firecrawl Research Index, keyless endpoint access, automatic PII redaction, a deterministicJson format, and video discovery on any page.

Key features:

• Firecrawl Research Index — Search across 3M+ arXiv papers and GitHub code (issues, merged PRs, READMEs, refreshed daily). State-of-the-art recall on arXivQA, outperforming the next best provider by 18%.
• Keyless access for core endpoints — Use /scrape, /search, /interact, and /parse without an API key from official MCP, CLI, and SDK clients.
• Automatic PII redaction — New redactPII option strips personal and sensitive data (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, secrets) from scraped content.
• deterministicJson format — Get structured JSON without running an LLM on every request. Generates reusable extractors per schema and site for cheaper, consistent repeat scrapes.
• Video discovery on any page — The video format now finds videos on any page, returning URL, title, thumbnail, duration, and more.
