ScrapingDog

About ScrapingDog

Scrapingdog provides a web scraping API that manages proxies and headless browsers on behalf of the user, aiming to avoid blocking while extracting data from target websites. Alongside the general-purpose scraping API, it offers dedicated APIs for specific sources, including Google Search (SERP), Google News, Google Maps, LinkedIn profiles, and e-commerce sites such as Amazon and Walmart. Structured data can be requested via API calls (for example with a target URL, search query, and location parameters) and is returned in JSON format, such as product details, organic search results, news articles, or business listings with fields like ratings, reviews, and coordinates.

The product is aimed at developers who need programmatic access to web data without building and maintaining their own scraping infrastructure. It offers a 30-day free trial with 200 free credits and no credit card required to sign up.
