Scraper quotes vary wildly across agencies because the work varies wildly. Here is how Apex Automation Team prices, so you can sanity-check any quote.
What drives the price
- Site complexity: static pages are cheap; logins, captchas, dynamic scrolling and anti-bot layers add engineering and proxy costs.
- Fields and structure: ten flat fields vs nested tables, variants and detail pages.
- Volume: 5,000 rows can run on one machine; 5 million needs infrastructure and monitoring.
- Frequency: one-time exports vs daily/weekly runs with change detection and alerting.
- Delivery: a CSV vs a pipeline into your CRM, database or Google Sheets.
Typical ranges
- $50–$150: simple public site, one-time export, standard fields.
- $150–$600: dynamic site or login, multiple page types, Excel with several sheets, or a reusable scraper with docs.
- $600–$2,000+: protected targets, large volumes, scheduled runs, monitoring, integrations, multiple sources merged.
- Lead databases: $0.1–$0.5+ per lead when a pre-scraped source already exists — usually the cheapest route.
Hosting and maintenance
Scheduled runs need a server and proxies (typically $10–$100/month depending on volume) and occasional fixes when the target site changes. We quote maintenance as an optional monthly add-on rather than hiding it in the build price.
How to get an accurate quote
Send the URL, the fields, the volume, the frequency and the output format. Apex Automation Team runs a free feasibility test and returns a fixed price — no payment until you approve. Start here or use the interactive estimator.
Quick checklist
- Send the URL, fields, volume, frequency and output format
- Ask whether a pre-scraped database already covers your need
- Decide one-time vs recurring before comparing quotes
- Budget hosting/proxies for scheduled runs
- Get a fixed price after a free feasibility test
Frequently asked
Do you charge for the feasibility test?
No. Every new target site is tested free and you receive a fixed quote before any payment.
Can I get the source code?
Yes — you can order a reusable scraper with documentation, a dataset only, or a hosted scheduled run.
