Scraping APIs

14 Apr 2023

I'm doing a lot of scraping these days, for lead generation (eg on the back of Twittee !projects/twittee ).

Exploring scraping APIs now to see if I can get better results (many websites where I can't get results) and avoid the time/pain of rotating VPNs.

Apify

ScrapingAnt

Enthusiast plan at $19 for 100k calls seems to be the most interesting price/value ratio. But double credit:

By default, each request costs 10 API credits because JavaScript rendering and Standard proxies are enabled.

Free to start, so testing now.

See !helpers/scrapingant

ScrapingBee

By default, each request costs 5 credits because JavaScript rendering is enabled by default.
