Question 1

What is Amazon scraping?

Accepted Answer

Amazon scraping is the automated process of extracting publicly available product data, pricing, reviews, and seller information from Amazon's website. Using specialized tools and technologies, businesses collect structured data from Amazon at scale for competitive intelligence, price monitoring, and market research.

Question 2

Is it legal to scrape Amazon?

Accepted Answer

Scraping publicly available data from Amazon is generally considered legal in most jurisdictions based on case law (including the 2022 hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn ruling). We only extract publicly visible data — product listings, prices, reviews — never data behind login walls. We recommend consulting with a legal advisor for your specific use case.

Question 3

What data can you extract from Amazon?

Accepted Answer

We can extract virtually any publicly visible data: product titles, descriptions, images, ASINs, prices, reviews & ratings, BSR (Best Seller Rank), seller information, Q&A, specifications, variations, inventory levels, keyword rankings, and more — across all Amazon marketplaces worldwide.

Question 4

How do you handle Amazon's anti-scraping measures?

Accepted Answer

Our infrastructure uses enterprise-grade proxy rotation, intelligent request throttling, browser fingerprint management, CAPTCHA handling, and session management. We've been successfully navigating Amazon's defenses for 10+ years, continuously adapting to their updates.

Question 5

In what formats do you deliver the data?

Accepted Answer

We deliver clean, structured data in whatever format your workflow needs: JSON, CSV, Excel, direct database delivery, or via a webhook/API endpoint. Custom formats are available on request.

Question 6

How quickly can you deliver scraped data?

Accepted Answer

Delivery time depends on volume and data type. Smaller projects (under 10,000 records) can be delivered within 24-48 hours. Enterprise-scale projects are discussed on a case-by-case basis with clear SLAs. We also offer scheduled recurring deliveries.

Question 7

Do you support all Amazon marketplaces?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support all major Amazon marketplaces including amazon.com (US), amazon.co.uk (UK), amazon.de (Germany), amazon.ca (Canada), amazon.com.au (Australia), amazon.in (India), amazon.co.jp (Japan), and more — 12+ marketplaces in total.

Question 8

What makes you different from DIY scraping or free tools?

Accepted Answer

Our enterprise infrastructure provides near-100% success rates versus the 20-40% success rates of typical DIY scrapers. We handle all proxy management, CAPTCHA solving, layout updates, and data cleaning — saving your team hundreds of engineering hours. You receive clean, structured, reliable data without the maintenance overhead.

Question 9

Question 10

How accurate is your scraped data?

Accepted Answer

We maintain a 99.5% data accuracy rate through multi-layer validation: HTML parsing accuracy checks, field-level validation rules, deduplication, and periodic manual spot-checks. Any anomalies trigger automatic re-extraction.

Question 11

Can you handle large-scale extractions of millions of records?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our distributed infrastructure is built for enterprise scale. We've handled projects involving tens of millions of records across multiple marketplaces. Large projects are managed with dedicated infrastructure, clear SLAs, and milestone-based delivery.

Question 12

How do you handle Amazon's frequent layout changes?

Accepted Answer

Our team monitors Amazon layouts continuously. We use multiple parser strategies per page type, so when one selector breaks, fallback parsers take over. Layout changes are typically addressed within hours of detection, with no interruption to your data delivery.

Question 13

Do you offer recurring/scheduled data delivery?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support daily, weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly scheduled deliveries. Data can be delivered to your preferred destination: email attachment, cloud storage (S3, GCS, Dropbox), FTP, or direct database insertion.

Question 14

Is my project data kept confidential?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We treat all client data and project details as strictly confidential. We can sign an NDA before any project discussion. We do not share client project details with any third parties.
