About ScraperAPI

ScraperAPI is a hosted service for collecting data from public websites. A developer sends requests through its API, and the service deals with proxies, browsers and CAPTCHAs on the back end, which removes much of the maintenance work involved in running scrapers against sites that try to block automated traffic.

The product line includes the core Scraping API, an Async Scraper Service for sending large volumes of requests asynchronously, structured data endpoints that return JSON for popular domains, and DataPipeline for automating collection without writing code. Tooling for AI and automation connects agents and workflow tools to live web data, and documentation covers cURL, Python and Node.js.

The vendor lists use cases for ecommerce, SEO agencies, market research firms, real estate, travel, investment research and AI training data, plus SERP and reputation monitoring. ScraperAPI is a commercial product with a pricing page, a contact-sales option, and a recent acquisition of Traject Data noted on its homepage.
