How to use Clutch.co Directory Scraper

Clutch.co Directory Scraper is built for an easy start, even if you've never scraped before:

1. Create a free Apify account using your email.
2. Open Clutch.co Directory Scraper.
3. Paste a Clutch.co directory URL and set the number of pages to scrape.
4. Enable Apify Residential Proxies in the Proxy configuration section (pre-filled by default).
5. Click Start and wait for the data to be extracted.
6. Download your data in JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or XML.

Proxy requirement

Clutch.co is protected by Cloudflare, which blocks requests from datacenter IP addresses. Residential proxies are required when running this Actor on the Apify platform.

The proxy configuration is pre-filled with Apify Residential Proxies. You can also supply your own proxy URLs under the Proxy section. Apify Residential Proxies are billed by data transferred (~$12.50/GB). A typical run scraping 3 pages costs less than $0.02.

Input parameters

The input of this scraper should be JSON containing the following fields:

directory_url (String, required) — The URL of a Clutch.co directory listing page. Must start with https://clutch.co/. Any directory path works, including nested verticals.

end_page (Number, optional, default: 1) — The last page of results to scrape. Scraping always starts at page 1. Each page contains up to 80 agencies. Set this to 5 to scrape pages 1–5 (up to 400 agencies).

proxyConfiguration (Object, optional) — Proxy settings. Pre-filled with Apify Residential Proxies. Required to bypass Cloudflare when running on the Apify platform.

Clutch.co Directory Scraper input example

{
  "directory_url": "https://clutch.co/agencies/ppc",
  "end_page": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]
  }
}

This scrapes up to 5 pages (≈ 400 agencies) from the PPC directory.

Any Clutch directory path works:

• https://clutch.co/agencies/ppc
• https://clutch.co/agencies/seo
• https://clutch.co/agencies/digital-strategy
• https://clutch.co/agencies/ui-ux
• https://clutch.co/it-services/staff-augmentation
• https://clutch.co/web-developers
• https://clutch.co/real-estate/commercial-financing/merger-acquisition

During the run

During the run, the Actor outputs a log message for each page showing the current page out of the total requested, how many new agencies were found, how many were duplicates, and the running total of unique records scraped so far.

If the Actor receives invalid input (e.g. a URL that doesn't start with https://clutch.co/), it stops immediately with a failure state and a clear explanation of what went wrong.

If a page returns no agency cards before end_page is reached, the Actor stops pagination early and finishes cleanly rather than continuing to fetch empty pages.

Note

This scraper only collects data that agencies have chosen to publish publicly on their Clutch directory listings. It does not extract any data behind a login wall. The scraper is rate-limited to 20 requests per minute with a single worker to be polite to Clutch's servers and stay within the spirit of their crawl policies.
