Stack Overflow & Stack Exchange Scraper searches questions across 25+ Stack Exchange communities (Stack Overflow, Super User, Server Fault, Ask Ubuntu, Unix, Mathematics, Cross Validated, and more) and returns rich, structured records — title, tags, score, answer/view counts, author, dates, link, and optional nested top answers — via the official Stack Exchange API. No scraping, no anti-bot, no key required. Pay only per question.

What this scraper does

  • Search questions by free text (intitle: supported) and/or tags across any of 25+ Stack Exchange sites.
  • Filter by minimum score, minimum answer count, answered/unanswered status, and creation date range.
  • Sort by relevance, votes, activity, or newest.
  • Export title, tags, score, view count, answer count, author name + reputation, creation date, and link per question.
  • Optionally nest the top 3 answers (with body text) inside each question record.
  • Great for developer research, tech-trend analysis, recruiting, LLM/RAG datasets, and Q&A mining.
