What are Scraper APIs?
Automated web services tailored to fetch large amounts of data from websites in a short time. Popular for such use cases as e-commerce, SEO, market research, digital advertising, brand security and protection.
The key benefits of using high-quality Scraper APIs include:
No need to develop or maintain you own scraping infrastructure;
Localized real-time data without IP blocks;
Smart features like Headless Browser, Web Crawler, Scheduler and more.
How do Scraper APIs compare to proxies?
Scraper APIs are ready-to-use web scraping solutions that eliminate the necessity of creating custom scrapers and parsers. Proxies serve as intermediaries by distributing scraping load over multiple IP addresses and bypassing IP blocks and CAPTCHAs.
Proxies don’t extract or structure the data; they simply help to avoid blocks for companies that already have an in-house solution;
Scraper APIs provide a whole scraping infrastructure, making them more suitable when a company doesn’t have an in-house web scraper.
