Really good! If you're able to connect this with Zapier, we'd be able to do everything automagically 😉

@thiagoafram glad to hear that, we could create a zapier app if there was enough demand 😉

@philip_kallberg - Can we save this as a .csv / excel?

@vinod_sharma1 you would have to do so on your side at the moment. in future we may change the structure of the api so you can run a batch job of xxxx urls and we return a job id which you can poll to receive a csv once complete 😃

@thiagoafram @philip_kallberg I would love a Zapier app and bet a lot of others would too.

good work here @philip_kallberg. I get the scraping for sales data etc, but I don't understand the use case of collecting review data etc (I may just be having a brain fart!).

@jwelch thanks for checking us out! when it comes to review data, we released our review scraper api [0] a few weeks ago and got to learn about a bunch of uses cases around scraping reviews. the process with that api looks like this: 1) find the review profile url (eg. yelp) for a given company 2) pass it to the review scraper api 3) receive reviews back this metadata api let's us automate step #1, so eg. if you want to get reviews for your competitor, just give us their website URL and then we can get their reviews. as for collecting review data, we picked up clients in very different industries since we launched that api a few weeks ago. the overarching theme is generating actionable insights based on review data - whether on industry, company or competitors. we do this ourselves @ Reviewshake but thought it'd be cool to open up our infrastructure to help other companies too. hope this makes sense?

Was looking for an API like this. It saves the time and hassle of going to a merchants websites and trying to get all their details. Such a useful API!

Pros:

Very very useful!! and easy to use when trying to gather information from websites.

Cons:

None so far

How many times have you had a long list of URLs, and wanted to extract some piece of information from them? This weekend I had enough of that and my project became to create a simple API for it... You give us a URL and we return any contact data we can find (eg. email, phone), social data (eg. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc.) as well as review sites in use (eg. Yelp, Tripadvisor and 50+ others). Here are a few use cases that come to mind: - Sales... easily get emails/phone numbers for your outreach - Find review profiles for a given company and feed them to the Review Scraper API [0] to get their reviews - Use review data in your next email outreach campaign to customize your email, eg. "Hey X, Congrats on your 5-star review from Jason last week!" - this works wonders 😉 - Follow or monitor companies on their social profiles There are already tools that return known email addresses for a given domain, but they don't actually go to the website to fetch that data. The number of times such tools have come up empty handed and I've found the email directly on the target website is staggering. This API also returns a lot more data than just email addresses. We've started using this internally and it's already made our life so much easier, and I hope it will for you too! This is just the start - there is so much more we can achieve and I would love to hear from the community how you would use this? Feel free to sign up to the free tier and go wild :) [0]: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
