CNBC Articles

CNBC Articles Scraper extracts full-detail news articles from CNBC.com, the leading global business and financial news brand. Point it at any combination of CNBC sections (Markets, Business, Technology, Politics, and more) and it returns every recent article with its headline, author byline, publish and update timestamps, section, keywords, every image, and the complete body text, not just a summary. Run it on demand, on a schedule, or wire it into your own pipeline through the Apify API - no CNBC account or API key required.

Why use CNBC Articles Scraper?

• Market intelligence feeds - track breaking market-moving stories the moment CNBC publishes them.
• Media and brand monitoring - watch how companies, executives, or sectors are being covered.
• Research and archiving - build a searchable, structured archive of financial news with full text, not just headlines.
• AI and NLP pipelines - feed clean, structured article text into summarization, sentiment, or trend-detection models.

Apify's infrastructure handles the scheduling, retries, and storage, so you get reliable results without managing servers or proxies yourself.

How much does it cost to scrape CNBC data?

This Actor is priced at $3 per 1,000 articles scraped, well below typical general-purpose news scraper pricing on Apify Store, plus Apify's standard compute usage. A typical run pulling 100 full articles costs a small fraction of a dollar. Apify's free tier includes enough platform credit to try this Actor at no cost.

Tips

• Start with a narrow sections list and a small maxTotalArticles to sanity-check output before scaling up.
• Schedule the Actor hourly or daily via Apify Scheduler to build a continuously updating news archive.
• Combine with the companion CNBC Keyword Search Scraper Actor when you need to search CNBC's full archive by topic instead of browsing sections.

FAQ and disclaimers

This Actor only extracts data that CNBC already publishes on public, unauthenticated pages. It does not bypass any paywall, login, or access control. Use it in compliance with CNBC's Terms of Service and applicable law in your jurisdiction. CNBC's page structure may change over time; if extraction quality drops, please open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab. Need a custom variant (different sections, additional fields, higher volume)?
