Comparison: This Scraper vs Alternatives

vs Manual Scraping / Copy-Paste

Manually browsing Clutch.co and copying data into spreadsheets is tedious, error-prone, and doesn't scale. This actor extracts thousands of listings in minutes with zero manual effort.

vs Building Your Own Scraper

Clutch.co uses Cloudflare protection that blocks simple HTTP scrapers. Building and maintaining a scraper that handles fingerprinting, browser automation, and site changes is a significant engineering investment. This actor handles all of that out of the box.

vs Clutch.co's Own Data

Clutch.co does not offer a public API or data export. Their data is locked behind the website. This actor is the closest thing to a Clutch.co API — structured, programmatic access to the same data.

vs Other Apify Scrapers

This actor is purpose-built for Clutch.co with reliable Cloudflare bypass, clean data extraction, and active maintenance. Generic scrapers often fail on Clutch.co's anti-bot protection.
