Trusted data from leading platforms
Live prices, on demand, from any storefront
The Price API is a dedicated REST endpoint that extracts real‑time pricing data from any e‑commerce product page. You send a URL, and the API returns the list price, sale price, currency, and discount percentage — automatically handling dynamic JavaScript, geo‑specific pricing, and anti‑bot measures. No need to build or maintain a scraping infrastructure; just call the API and feed the numbers into your repricer, dashboard, or pricing model.
Built on the same engine that powers our enterprise‑grade scraping pipelines, the Price API is designed for developers who want lightning‑fast, accurate price data without writing a single line of scraping code. It works on any retailer, marketplace, or brand store, and scales from a handful of requests a day to millions per hour.
- Extracts list price, sale price, currency, and discount
- Handles dynamic JavaScript pricing and geo‑targeted offers
- Built‑in proxy rotation, headless rendering, and CAPTCHA solving
- Returns JSON or CSV — feeds directly into your repricing engine
- Pay per successful request — no monthly fees, no idle cost
Why accurate, real‑time pricing data is harder than it looks
Prices change constantly and vary by location. Generic scrapers can't keep up, and manual checks leave you behind the competition.
Prices update by the minute
A flash sale starts and ends within hours. Without sub‑minute data, your repricer is working on stale numbers — and you lose both margin and sales.
Geo‑specific pricing hides the real number
A visitor from Germany sees a different price than one from the US. Without local IPs and language headers, your price data is inaccurate — and your strategy suffers.
Anti‑bot walls block price scrapers
Retailers know competitors check prices. Without fingerprint rotation, residential proxies, and CAPTCHA solving, your price feed gets blocked after a few dozen requests.
An API purpose‑built for price extraction at any scale
Each feature is designed to give you the exact price data you need — fast, accurate, and invisible to target sites.
Real‑time price extraction
Every API call fetches and parses the live product page. No cached data, no batch delays — you get the price that's on the page right now, within milliseconds.
Geo‑specific pricing
Pass a country code and the API routes your request through a local residential IP with native language headers. You'll see the price a local customer sees — including regional discounts and tax treatments.
List price & sale price detection
The API automatically separates the original list price from the current sale price and calculates the discount percentage. No manual regex — just clean, structured fields ready for your logic.
Transparent, usage‑based pricing
Pay only for successful API calls. Real‑time dashboard shows volume, success rate, and spend. Set daily caps to control costs — no surprises.

“Our repricer now runs on live competitor prices — not yesterday's crawl”
"We needed real‑time prices from 50 retailers for our repricing engine. The Price API gave us a single endpoint that handles everything — proxies, JavaScript, geo‑targeting. Our integration took less than a day."
"The automatic sale price detection saved us weeks of regex work. We just call the API and get a clean list_price and sale_price — with the discount already calculated. It's exactly what our pricing model needed."
"The geo‑targeting is the feature that sets this apart. We pass a country code and get the exact price a local customer sees — including regional taxes and discounts. Our international pricing strategy is now data‑driven."
