Question 1

What Is Scrapingdog?

Accepted Answer

Scrapingdog is a web scraping API that lets you scrape data from a source you desire. When you need data in bulk, you can use a web scraping API. We have multiple dedicated APIs built to extract data from different platforms, including Google Search, LinkedIn Profile & Amazon Product Data that give you output in parsed JSON format.

Question 2

I’m not a developer, can you extract data for me?

Accepted Answer

If you prefer not to use the API directly, you can contact us, and our dedicated team will extract the data for you. Please note that the pricing will be different and will be based on your specific requirements, as outlined in the pricing section.

Question 3

Do you need multiple subscriptions for extracting data from different scraping APIs?

Accepted Answer

No, you only need a single account to use our dedicated scrapers. For example, if you want to use both the Google Scraper API and the LinkedIn Scraper API simultaneously, you can do so with one account. However, please note that Scrapingdog operates on a credit system, and each dedicated scraper has different credit usage per call request. For more information on the credit system, please refer to the documentation.
