Pricing

Pay-per-result. Charged per school profile scraped plus a fixed start fee. A full global crawl of ~12,000 schools costs approximately $15–18 at standard rates.

Limitations

• Coverage is limited to schools listed on international-schools-database.com. Schools not on ISDB are not included.
• waiting_list is self-reported by schools and may be absent (unknown) for schools that do not fill in the Q&A section.
• Tuition figures are in each school's local currency — use the currency field to convert.
• Full global crawl discovers ~338 cities and ~12,000 schools. Default timeout is 6 hours; large runs near the cap should set maxItems conservatively or split by city.
• Residential proxies are used automatically for reliable global access.
