From AltData.wiki, The Alternative Data Encyclopedia
ScrapeHero is a US-based managed web scraping company providing fully managed data extraction services for enterprises. Its Data-as-a-Service model covers the entire pipeline from large-scale crawling to delivery in client formats, alongside custom real-time scraping APIs, robotic process automation, and custom AI solutions built on collected data.[1]
The company states that most Fortune 500 companies it has worked with, along with a customer base exceeding 15,000 accounts, have relied on its service for more than a decade, with a claimed customer retention rate of 98%.[1] Its crawled data has been cited by media outlets including The Guardian, Bloomberg Opinion, Forbes, TechCrunch, Vox, and Business Insider.[1][2]
What It Does
ScrapeHero converts websites into structured data without requiring customers to run software, hardware, proxies, or scrapers of their own. Commonly requested data types include e-commerce product, pricing, and review data; stock market and financial data for alternative-data use; real estate and housing listings; job postings; travel, hotel, and airline data; and datasets for research and journalism.[1]
Data And Methodology
The company operates distributed crawling infrastructure capable of extracting from millions of web pages daily at thousands of pages per second, handling JavaScript-heavy sites, CAPTCHAs, and IP blacklisting transparently, with self-healing technology for website changes. Automated quality checks powered by AI monitor hundreds of millions of daily data points, supplemented by manual QA review.[1]
Products
Beyond bespoke services, ScrapeHero offers ScrapeHero Cloud, a marketplace of pre-built scrapers and APIs for popular sites such as Amazon, Walmart, Google Maps, Zillow, and Yellow Pages, and a Data Store selling point-of-interest (POI) datasets covering store locations of thousands of global brands for instant download, along with retail location intelligence reports.[1]
Delivery And Pricing
Data is delivered in formats including nested JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, relational tables, and SQL dumps, with automated delivery to Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Storage, Snowflake, Dropbox, cloud data lakes, and FTP endpoints, or via custom scraping APIs.[1] Pricing is quoted per project through its sales process rather than published as fixed plans.
Buyers And Use Cases
Customers span healthcare companies, financial corporations, global retailers, FMCG conglomerates, hotel chains, consultancies, media companies, accounting firms, and energy companies, per the company's website. Use cases include price monitoring, distribution channel monitoring, brand monitoring, sales leads, LLM training data, and alternative data feeds for investment research.[1] The company positions itself legally as a conduit gathering publicly available data, stating that it does not store or resell data.[1]
