I will do web scraping, data extraction, data mining and build a python web scraper
Backend API Engineer, Python, Integrations, Data
About this Gig
You need data that lives on a website, inside a dashboard, or buried in a pile of PDFs. I turn it into a clean table you can use.
WHAT I HANDLE
- Web scraping of sites behind a login, with pagination or infinite scroll
- Pages rendered entirely in JavaScript
- Data extraction from PDFs, invoices and scanned documents
- Lead generation lists built from directories and maps
- Sources that change layout and keep breaking the script you already have
WHAT YOU GET
- CSV, Excel, JSON, or a direct load into your database
- Deduplicated and normalized, with fields named the way you asked
- The python web scraper source code, so you are never locked to me
- On Premium: a scheduled job and an alert the moment the source changes
HOW IT WORKS
Send the URL and one example of the output you want. I check the source and confirm scope and price before you order anything.
WHAT I DO NOT DO
No bypassing access controls, no harvesting personal data behind protections, no scraping social platforms to resell user data.
Tell me the source and the fields you need. Within a day you will know whether it is straightforward or messy.

FAQ
The site blocks bots. Can you still get the data?
Often yes, while staying inside the rules: respecting rate limits and behaving like a normal user. What I will not do is bypass protections or access controls.
How often can the scraper run?
Anything from once to every few minutes, depending on how the source behaves. Scheduling is included in the Premium package.
What happens when the site changes and it breaks?
That is what the alert is for. You hear it from me, not from an empty spreadsheet three weeks later.
Can you load it straight into our database?
Yes. PostgreSQL, MySQL, Google Sheets, Airtable or an S3 bucket.
Do I get the code?
Yes, from the Standard package up. It is your script and you can run it without me.
Can you do data extraction from PDFs and scanned documents?
Yes. Text PDFs are straightforward, scans need OCR and I will tell you the realistic accuracy before you order.
Do you do lead generation lists?
Yes, from public business directories and maps, with the fields you need. I do not sell prepared personal data lists.
How do I know the data is complete?
Every delivery includes a row count against the source and a note on anything that could not be retrieved and why.
