Your data, your rules. A dedicated API built just for you.
When off‑the‑shelf APIs don't fit your schema, your schedule, or your target websites, our data engineering team designs, builds, and hosts a private API endpoint that delivers exactly the data you need — in your format, on your schedule. No scraping infrastructure to manage, no compromises.
endpoint: "https://api.yourdomain.com/v1/data"
method: "POST"
auth: "Bearer token (your IAM)"
schema: "your‑internal‑fields"
delivery: "direct to Snowflake"
sla: "99.9% uptime"
Your internal field names
Zero infrastructure for you
Trusted data from leading platforms
Stop squeezing your data needs into a generic API box
Pre‑built APIs are great until your use case doesn't fit. You spend more time working around their limitations — mapping fields, handling missing data, chaining requests — than actually using the data. Custom API development gives you a dedicated, private endpoint designed to your exact data requirements: your schema, your target sites, your delivery format, your schedule. No compromises, no workarounds.
Our data engineering team handles everything — extraction, parsing, normalisation, anti‑bot evasion, and hosting. You get a production‑ready API that plugs directly into your application, dashboard, or data pipeline, backed by an uptime SLA and a named point of contact.
- Designed around your internal schema, not a generic template
- Handles your specific target sites, authentication, and anti‑bot needs
- Delivered on your schedule to your warehouse or any endpoint
- Fully hosted and maintained — no infrastructure for your team
- Backed by an uptime SLA and a named point of contact
Why generic APIs break when your data needs get specific
These are the friction points that push teams away from off‑the‑shelf endpoints and toward a custom‑built solution.
Generic APIs force your data into their schema
You spend hours mapping, renaming, and cleaning the response to fit your internal fields — and it breaks every time the API changes. A custom API delivers data in your exact format from day one.
One‑size‑fits‑all rate limits block your scale
You need 10,000 requests per hour, but the public API caps at 1,000. Or you need sub‑second latency, but the shared endpoint queues your calls behind everyone else. A dedicated API gives you your own throughput tier.
Your target sites require custom anti‑bot logic
A generic proxy rotation doesn't work on highly protected portals. A custom API embeds site‑specific stealth measures — fingerprint rotation, session management, CAPTCHA solving — tuned to your exact targets.
A dedicated API endpoint, built around your data contract
Everything below is designed, built, and maintained by our data engineering team — you focus on using the data.
Schema‑first design
We map your internal field names, data types, and validation rules before writing a single line of extraction code. The API response matches your spec exactly — no renaming, no cleaning, no surprises.
Custom target handling
Authenticated sessions, non‑standard pagination, multi‑step search flows, JavaScript‑heavy SPAs — the API is built to navigate your specific target sites, not a generic template.
Your infrastructure, your controls
Data lands directly in your S3 bucket, Snowflake, BigQuery, or any webhook endpoint — under your IAM roles, inside your VPC if needed. We never see your downstream systems.
Hosted, monitored, maintained
Uptime SLA, automatic retries, proactive monitoring, and a named engineer who owns your API. Your team calls the endpoint; we handle everything behind it.

From scoping call to a live custom API in weeks
Discovery & schema design
We define the target sites, output schema, authentication, rate limits, and delivery requirements in a working session with your team.
Pipeline & API build
Our engineers build the extraction logic, the REST API layer, and the delivery integration — all against a staging environment you can test.
Staging & validation
You test the API with your own systems, validate the data against your schema, and confirm latency and reliability before go‑live.
Production deployment & handover
The API goes live with full monitoring and documentation. Your team gets API keys and a named engineer for ongoing support.
Deliverables at each stage of custom API development
API specification document
A complete OpenAPI/Swagger spec defining every endpoint, field, data type, and authentication method — signed off before a single line of extraction code is written.
Staging endpoint + sample dataset
A fully functional staging API delivering real data from your targets. You test integration, validate schema, and measure latency before production.
Production API + documentation
Live API endpoint with complete API docs, client SDKs in Python and JavaScript, and a runbook covering monitoring and escalation paths.
Monitoring, maintenance, and monthly health report
Continuous uptime monitoring, proactive issue resolution, and a monthly summary of API performance and any target‑site changes handled.
Flexible agreements for every integration depth
Build & Handoff
Best for teams that want a complete API built and then deployed into their own infrastructure to manage going forward.
- Fixed scope, timeline, and price
- Full API delivered with docs & SDKs
- Optional maintenance add‑on available
Managed API
A fully hosted, fully maintained API — we build it, run it, monitor it, and update it when your targets or requirements change.
- Build, hosting, and maintenance included
- 99.9% uptime SLA
- Named engineer as point of contact
Enterprise API Program
For organisations that need multiple custom APIs, dedicated engineering capacity, private cloud deployment, and custom SLAs.
- Dedicated engineering capacity
- Private cloud or on‑premise deployment
- SSO, audit logs, quarterly reviews
Teams whose data needs don't fit a box
E‑commerce & Retail
Feed your repricer or merchandising tool with a dedicated API that maps competitor SKUs to your internal product IDs — automatically.
Travel & Hospitality
A private fare API that searches multiple OTAs, applies your business rules, and delivers normalised rates directly to your booking engine.
Real Estate
A property data API that aggregates listings from regional portals, enriches with your internal data, and delivers a master feed on your schedule.
Financial Services
A private alternative data API with custom compliance rules, audit logging, and delivery into your secure data environment.

“Our API feels like it was built by our own engineering team — without the six‑month backlog”
"We needed a private API that pulled competitor prices and mapped them to our internal SKUs — with sub‑second latency for our repricer. ScraperScoop designed, built, and deployed it in three weeks. It's been running flawlessly for over a year."
"The schema‑first design approach meant we spent the first week just getting the data model right. When the API went live, it dropped straight into our data pipeline with zero transformation — exactly what we'd asked for."
"We'd been trying to build this API internally for months. ScraperScoop delivered a better version in four weeks — with documentation, SDKs, and a monitoring dashboard we didn't even know we needed."
Your custom API delivers data wherever you need it
Data lands directly in your infrastructure, under your controls, in your format.

Questions we hear before a first scoping call
Your data, delivered through an API built to your exact specification
A data engineer will scope the project and come back with a realistic timeline and quote — no commitment required to start the conversation.
Most projects go from scoping to a live API in 2–4 weeks.
