  • Smart domain security level detection

    Scrapingdog uses a combination of headless Chrome and the right proxy to go undetected on the target website. We reduce the number of steps you take to get results, and so offer a more optimized and economical solution.

  • Bypass any on-site protection

    Scrapingdog has a pool of 10M+ IPs, with dedicated IPs for certain domains. Our API uses the appropriate proxy and header combination to avoid any CAPTCHA.

  • Wait parameter & other APIs

    Some websites take longer to load every component because of excessive API calls. We use the wait parameter to load the website completely before extracting any data.

  • Faster & reliable

    Scrapingdog constantly upgrades so you get seamless data. You will notice a faster and more reliable data pipeline when you use our scrapers.

Benefits of using Scrapingdog over ScrapingBee

  • More features at less price

    With Scrapingdog you get more features and more reliability, because any data blockage destroys your data stream. Important features like the wait parameter, screenshot, and a success-rate calculator are absent in ScrapingBee.

  • Better documentation

    Scrapingdog's documentation is simple and straightforward. No matter which programming language you use for web scraping, we have a dedicated page for almost every major language.

    Check out our documentation

  • Web scraping tutorials & blogs

    We have written web scraping tutorials for almost every programming language, covering beginners and advanced developers across most languages and libraries. They can help you start your scraping journey.

  • Tools for non-developers

    Once you sign up, your dashboard has a tool where you just paste a target URL and press Scrape to get the raw data. From there you can copy it and send it to anyone. Yes, it really is that simple with Scrapingdog.

  • So far VERY pleased with how it is working! Set up took me 2 minutes compared to other alternatives. Also, I used one of their recently published scraping guides, and it worked 100% as advertised!!
