Samples

Thank you for expressing a need for sample data. This page describes our policy and the reasons behind it.

Why Samples?

Usually potential customers of ours ask for samples upfront for 2 reasons:

1. Does ScrapeHero have the ability to get this data?

We are one of the top companies in this industry and most of the Fortune 500 companies and top global brands are our customers since 2014.
We are trusted everyday by these large corporations because we have demonstrated the ability to get this data over all these years.

2. Will the data be in a format I can use?

You will always get the data you need in the format you need as long as the data is on the website.

If you would like to ensure that the “data format” is accurate, you can provide us a format in Excel or JSON and our teams will follow that format. So you will always get exactly what you need.

In every case, you will always approve the data format and sample we provide (once we get started with the project) and only on your approval, will we gather the full data. As a result there is no risk of receiving a data format that you did not approve. We will never proceed without your approval.

Please see our standard timeline to understand how the data gathering process works and how there is no risk.

Can I get a Custom Sample?

Custom samples are made specifically for you based on your needs from the websites you need.

To get a sample, we will first need to build a custom scraper just for you, for that particular site. As a result, we are unable to provide a custom sample until we actually start your project and build your custom scraper.

Contrary to popular belief, neither we (nor anyone else) has a generic “tool” where we can just copy/paste the website link and get back data in a second. (At least, not one that actually works)
Our engineers will have to first create the custom scraper just for you. The custom scraper setup, data gathering, and QA takes a few days of effort for each website, regardless of  how simple the data sample might be.

We are happy to engage in a paid Pilot or Trial to build a custom scraper for you and provide a sample. Please contact our Sales team if you would like to get that started. Understandably, we are unable to do this for free or as an unpaid trial.

How about any Sample data?

If you are just looking for how some sample data looks like, this page has various samples of data gathered from various sites in various formats (usually our two default formats are CSV and JSON). Click here to read more about these formats.

The samples provided here demonstrate the kind of output you can receive from us.
However, these samples are generic samples that are NOT specific to your needs.
The websites that you need and the data fields that you need may be different from what’s in these generic samples and is covered in our “Custom Samples” section previously.
