What is Web Scraping API?

Web Scraping API is a tool that streamlines and automates data collection by emulating real user traffic at scale.

The API handles IP address rotation, integrated browser fingerprints, and JavaScript rendering to return web data in HTML, JSON, CSV, or Markdown format – all ready for your AI models.

If a request fails, the API will retry automatically, and you’ll only be charged for successful results.

Designed by our experienced developers, this tool offers you a range of handy features:

  • Built-in CAPTCHA and anti-bot measure handling
  • Headless browser rendering for JavaScript-heavy targets
  • Integrated browser fingerprints
  • Country, region, or city-level targeting
  • AI Parser for instant HTML to JSON conversion
  • Automatic retries with success-based billing

Built for real-time business and AI use cases

Our Web Scraping API helps companies to extract large-scale real-time data from any public website:

  • Analyze eCommerce data like prices, stock, and product reviews at scale
  • Monitor SEO and market intel, including SERPs, keywords, and SERP features
  • Track various real estate, travel, classifieds, and other listings
  • Identify user sentiment and trends in online forums and social media
  • Automate training data collection for your AI agents and LLMs

How does Web Scraping API work?

Our Web Scraping API mimics real user traffic to outsmart anti-bot systems and capture accurate data. The API delivers results in HTML, JSON, CSV, or Markdown format, and automatically retries the request several times if it fails.

How is web scraping used in business?

Web scraping is how today’s teams automate data collection to gain a competitive edge. With our Web Scraping API, you skip the manual work and anti-bot measures, and can focus on extracting insights that drive strategies.

Web scraper use cases include:

  • Competitive analysis. Monitor feature updates and customer sentiment to improve inventory and advertising strategies.

  • Real estate and finance. Collect listing data, blog insights, and transaction records for accurate competitive benchmarking and trend forecast.
  • AI training datasets. Build quality datasets for LLMs, AI agents, and recommendation engines from publicly available content

How to choose the best web scraping tool?

Follow these guidelines to find the web scraper that best fits your needs:

  • Define your data goals. Know upfront what you’ll be scraping (e.g. eCommerce listings) and what format you want it in (e.g. JSON) to find scrapers actually designed for the job.
  • Check anti-detection features. Keep an eye out for scrapers that handle proxy management and are backed by a vast IP pool. These help avoid CAPTCHAs, geo-restrictions, and IP blocks for uninterrupted scraping.
  • Prioritize scaling and automation. Future-proof your data collection projects with scrapers that scale with your needs and are easy to automate with features like task scheduling, bulk upload, and automatic retries.
  • Check success rates and reliability. Go with scrapers that have success-based pricing and guarantee 99.99%+ scraping success rates.
  • Consider integrations and support. See how well the scraper can be integrated into your infrastructure by checking supported coding languages. Bonus points for 24/7 tech support.
  • Test out ease of use. Look for scrapers with full documentation, quick onboarding, and scraping templates. If possible, take advantage of the free trial to see if the scraper lives up to the ease.
  • Don’t ignore compliance. Choose providers that take data ethics seriously by sourcing proxies sustainably and complying with data collection laws like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

If you’re in the market for a scraper, consider our Web Scraping API, as it has all of the above and more. Try it out for free now!

What are ready-made web scraping templates?

Ready-made templates are presets that streamline scraping for common use cases. Instead of writing custom code from scratch, you launch a tested template where you edit a code example using easily customizable options. This makes your data collection projects more efficient and requires zero coding.

How does Web Scraping API differ from proxies?

Proxies are the physical infrastructure, while our Web Scraping API is the software that brings proxies and the scraper functionality together. The API handles tasks like proxy management, anti-bot system bypassing, and structured data delivery.

What websites can I scrape with Web Scraping API?

Our Web Scraping API works across most websites – even the ones with JavaScript-heavy frameworks, strict anti-bot measures, or geo-restrictions. There are exceptions, like banking, government, and telecom websites, where we restrict access to avoid criminal activity.

Is it legal to use a scraper to collect data from websites?

While you can scrape public data, it’s a must to check the website’s terms of service for specific conditions and restrictions. When in doubt, consult a legal expert before scraping data.
