Web Scraping & Aggregation
Structured data from any public source — extracted, normalized, and maintained.
We extract structured data from product listings, pricing pages, job boards, reviews, news, government portals, dealer inventories, and filings — and deliver it as a monitored production system, not a script you babysit.
The capability
Extract structured data from any public web source.
Product listings, pricing pages, job postings, real estate listings, review platforms, news sites, government data portals, dealer inventories, financial filings — if it's public, we can structure it.
What sets production scraping apart from a one-off script is everything that happens when a source changes: monitoring, error handling, retry logic, anti-bot mitigation, and quality checks baked in. We build data systems the way we build software — systems that run, report, and self-recover.
What "production scraping" means at InWork
Six things a script can't give you.
JavaScript rendering
CoveragePlaywright and Selenium handle React, Vue, and any SPA. We don't skip pages that require browser execution to load their content.
Anti-bot mitigation
ResilienceRotating residential proxies, rate limiting, CAPTCHA handling where legally permissible, user agent rotation, and session management — so the pipeline keeps running.
Change detection
ReliabilitySchema change alerts fire when a target site's structure updates. Your pipeline doesn't silently break — it alerts and degrades gracefully.
Scale
ThroughputFrom 500 pages/day to 5M pages/day. Infrastructure scales horizontally on AWS/GCP with distributed job queues — Celery + Redis, or AWS SQS + Lambda.
Data normalization
StructureRaw HTML to structured JSON, CSV, or database records via AI-assisted extraction plus rule-based validation. Inconsistent formats across sources normalize to one unified schema.
Storage
PersistencePostgreSQL for structured records, S3 for raw HTML archives, InfluxDB for time-series data, and Snowflake/BigQuery for analytics-ready outputs.
Reference builds
Patterns we've already shipped.
Production aggregation systems we run today — the architecture we bring to any industry.
Vehicle inventory aggregation
An InWork-built platform aggregates vehicle inventory from 15,000+ US dealerships daily. Raw dealer lot feeds in 12+ formats are ingested, normalized, deduped, and exposed via API.
InWork MarketPulse
Competitor pricing, review aggregation, job posting monitoring, and news scraping for US businesses needing competitive intelligence — delivered as structured weekly reports or a real-time API.
Hyperlocal community data
A geographic data platform that scrapes local business listings, events, coupons, classifieds, and announcements from dozens of fragmented sources across a market, unifying them into one queryable community data layer.
