Clutch.co Companies Scraper: Your 🚀 Lead Generation Booster!

Overview

Hey there! 👋 This Apify actor is your new best friend for fast, affordable lead generation from Clutch.co. By default it scrapes search results for the essential data you need to power your outreach with tools like Apollo.io or Clay.com. Flip on scrapeProfileDetails and it'll also visit each company's individual Clutch profile page to pull deep data — full descriptions, client reviews, portfolio, contact info, social links, and more — merged right into the same record. 💨

Pricing 💲

This actor uses Pay-Per-Event billing with three tiers, so you only pay for the depth of data you actually pull:

• Use maxProfilesToScrape to cap how many companies get the paid enrichment in a single run.
• Apify Free plan accounts are automatically capped to the first page (~30 companies) per URL, and profile-detail enrichment (scrapeProfileDetails) is disabled — upgrade your Apify plan to unlock full pagination and enrichment.
• The full per-record data — including nested fields like projectPortfolio and clientReviews — is always available via the dataset's clean-items export or API; the Console "Overview" view is curated for readability, with a "Profile details" view for the deep fields.

Key Benefits ✨

• Pay only for the depth you need 💲: Pay-Per-Event pricing — pay for search-results listings, with optional paid deep-profile enrichment per company.
• Blazing Fast ⚡️: Built for speed — grabs only the essential data directly from search results by default.
• Optional Deep Enrichment 🔎: Turn on scrapeProfileDetails to get full company descriptions, client reviews, portfolio/case studies, certifications, awards, contact info, and social links — all merged into one record per company.
• High Website URL Extraction Rate 📈: Efficiently extracts company websites straight from search results.
• Smooth Workflow Integration 🤝: Structured JSON output ready to plug into Apollo.io, Clay.com, or your favorite tools.
• Super Simple Input 🕹️: Just give us the Clutch.co search URL — that's it!

Features 🤩

• Targeted Keyword Search (via URL): Get data based on Clutch.co categories and locations using your own URLs. (See example below.) Important Note: To keep things speedy and cheap, we only support filtering by main/sub-categories and location. Do not apply filters like hourly rate or client budget.
• Efficient Data Extraction: We grab only the really important stuff—no wasted requests.
• Optional Profile-Detail Enrichment: One merged record per company, combining search-result fields with full profile-page data.
• High-Quality Data: All the essential data points to make your leads shine! ✨
• Structured JSON Output: Perfect JSON for easy import into your tools.

Sample Input ➡️

It's simple! Just a JSON object with your Clutch.co search URLs. To get your search URLs, perform your desired search on Clutch.co and copy the URL from your browser's address bar.

{
  "maxPagesPerUrl": 55,  // Optional. Defaults to all available pages. Limits pages scraped per URL.
  "urls": [
    "https://clutch.co/it-services/staff-augmentation"  // Add more URLs as needed.
  ],
  "scrapeProfileDetails": true,  // Optional. Defaults to false. Enables paid profile-page enrichment.
  "maxProfilesToScrape": 50  // Optional. Caps how many companies get enriched (and billed) per run.
}
