SaaS Pricing Page Extractor

Extract pricing plans, prices, billing periods, features, limits, and CTA text from public SaaS pricing pages.

What this Actor does

SaaS Pricing Page Extractor fetches public pricing pages, scans the HTML for pricing sections, and saves structured pricing data to the Apify Dataset.

It is designed for quick competitor pricing research where a clean JSON summary is more useful than manually reading each page.

Use cases

• Build a competitor pricing spreadsheet.
• Track public SaaS plan names, prices, and billing periods.
• Collect pricing data for market research.
• Feed pricing pages into downstream monitoring or analysis tools.

Who this is for

Founders, analysts, agencies, pricing researchers, GTM teams, product marketers, and data teams tracking public SaaS pricing.

Input

• urls - Public SaaS pricing page URLs. Required, 1-50 items.
• maxPages - Maximum pages to process. Default: 10, maximum: 50.
• includeRawText - Include cleaned page text in the output. Default: true.
• useBrowserFallback - Reserved for JS-heavy pricing pages. The current Actor uses static extraction first and does not run a browser fallback yet. Default: true.

Example input

{
  "urls": ["https://www.apify.com/pricing"],
  "maxPages": 5,
  "includeRawText": true,
  "useBrowserFallback": true
}

Output

The Actor saves one Dataset item per pricing URL.

• sourceUrl - Final fetched page URL.
• companyName - Hostname-derived company name.
• pageTitle - HTML page title.
• currency - First detected currency marker such as $, USD, EUR, or GBP.
• plans - Array of detected plans with planName, price, billingPeriod, features, limits, and ctaText.
• hasFreePlan - Whether free pricing appears on the page.
• hasEnterprisePlan - Whether enterprise, custom, or contact-sales pricing appears.
• lastUpdatedText - Matching "last updated" text when present.
• rawText - Cleaned page text, or null when disabled.
• scrapedAt - ISO timestamp for the run.
• confidenceScore - Heuristic extraction confidence from 0 to 1.
• extractionStatus - succeeded or failed.
• errorMessage - Failure reason when no plans are detected or the page request fails.

Example output

{
  "sourceUrl": "https://www.apify.com/pricing",

    {
      "planName": "Pro",

    }
  ],
  "hasFreePlan": true,

How it works

• Reads the Actor input.
• Normalizes and deduplicates pricing URLs.
• Fetches public HTML.
• Looks for pricing-like blocks containing prices, free/custom/contact-sales text, plan names, features, limits, and CTAs.
• Saves one structured result per page to the Apify Dataset.

Limitations

• Public pages only.
• No login, private pricing, cookies, CAPTCHA bypass, or restricted content.
• Pricing page layouts vary widely, so extraction is heuristic.
• JavaScript-only pricing can return incomplete or failed results because browser fallback is not implemented in this version.
• Completeness depends on the page HTML available to a normal public request.

Error handling

Invalid or empty urls input fails run validation. Request failures return a failed Dataset item with extractionStatus: "failed" and errorMessage. Pages with no detected pricing plans also return a failed item instead of silently succeeding.

Troubleshooting

• If a page fails, confirm the URL is a public pricing page and can be opened without login.
• If no plans are detected, the pricing content may be rendered only by JavaScript or loaded after the initial HTML response.
• If the output is too large, set includeRawText to false.
• If plan details look incomplete, review the returned rawText to see what was available in the public HTML.
