General
Productdatascrape.com is a managed e-commerce data company. We help brands, retailers, AI teams and consultancies access product data from any marketplace or retailer — through three offerings: Web Scraping API (self-serve), Scraper as a Service (managed), and Ready Datasets (pre-built). Trusted by 200+ teams globally.
Founded in 2019, we've been building e-commerce data infrastructure for 6+ years. Over 200 enterprise customers, 9B+ records delivered last quarter, profitable and growing.
50+ pre-built retailer integrations including Amazon (18 geos), Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Flipkart, Myntra, Meesho, Blinkit, Zepto, Swiggy Instamart, Instacart, Carrefour, Tesco, Sainsbury's, Noon, Shopee, Mercado Libre, Total Wine, Drizly and more. Custom retailers added on request in 7-10 days.
Generic scraper APIs return raw HTML — you still write parsing code. Our APIs return pre-parsed JSON with e-commerce schema. Generic services offer proxy infrastructure — we offer end-to-end managed data delivery. Built specifically for retail data, not general-purpose scraping.
Three paths: (1) Web Scraping API for developers — talk to our team for an API key. (2) Scraper as a Service for managed projects — book a discovery call. (3) Ready Datasets for off-the-shelf data — request a free sample. Every option starts with a free sample within 24 hours.
Web Scraping API
A Web Scraping API is a REST endpoint that handles the complexity of extracting data from websites — JavaScript rendering, proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, retries — and returns clean structured JSON. Instead of building and maintaining your own scrapers, you make a simple HTTP request.
Official SDKs: Python, Node.js, PHP, Go, Ruby, Java. Plus working code samples for cURL, .NET and any language with HTTP support. Documentation at docs.productdatascrape.com.
