How can web scraping help you?

The web contains a lot of useful information but it is not in a structured format. Web Scraping automates the process of converting this unstructured information into structured data. If that sounds useful then you have come to the right place!

Generally our clients will come with a particular website in mind containing a dataset of interest. However if you have not found a source for your dataset please still reach out. We have been in the web scraping business for over a decade (since 2009) and may already know of a relevant website.

Solution

We can create a solution to automatically scrape your data of interest. Typically this takes a few hours / days, depending on the complexity of the website. The main bottleneck is the volume of data to download. When downloading we need to be respectful of websites and avoid impacting their services by downloading too fast.

Some scraping projects are one-off while others require regular updates. For regular updates we can either provide you the scraper (at no extra cost) for you to run again in future, or we can do it for you and take care of any required maintainance.

Receive your data

Most of our clients request their data be provided in CSV spreadsheets but other formats such as JSON, SQL, etc are also fine.

If the results are not as expected we can quickly correct the format. For larger projects an initial sample will be provided to confirm the format and we also save each scraped web page so that updated results can be quickly generated without needing to re-crawl the entire website.
