ThomasNet Supplier Scraper — Verify, Not Just List

You paste a company name. You get its ThomasNet listing: address, year founded, employee range, product categories and a public contact.

Why verification, not a bulk list

Most sourcing tools return a giant list you have to sift through. This Actor verifies specific suppliers you already have in mind — the entity you put in is the entity you get back, with proof.

5 advantages

1. One bad company name never kills your batch. Not found on ThomasNet? That row errors out alone; every other company still delivers.
2. Never billed on a failed lookup.
3. Honest about what ThomasNet has — and doesn't. ThomasNet listings carry no certifications data, so we don't pretend otherwise: you get real product/service categories instead, not an empty promise.
4. Optional contact discovery. Turn on includeContacts and we check the supplier's own website for a public email, on top of ThomasNet's listed phone number.
5. Hard cost cap you control. Set maxTotalChargeUsd and the run can never bill above it.

Pricing

Pay per event, base FREE-tier prices: $0.011 per verified supplier. Paid Store plans pay less on every event — the largest plans reach $0.00605 on the cheapest event; the Pricing tab on this Actor's Store page is always the authority. No event is ever charged on an item that returns an error — a batch of 200 with one bad input bills 199.
