🏢 Company Detail Scraper for LinkedIn (No Cookies)

Extract rich, structured company profiles from LinkedIn — without a login, without cookies, and without a session. Just paste company names or LinkedIn URLs and get a complete public profile for each: overview, follower & employee counts, headquarters, industries, specialties, logo, cover image, links, and related/affiliated pages.

✅ 100% no-cookie. The scraper reads only the public, anonymous LinkedIn company "overview" page that LinkedIn serves to logged-out visitors.

What's available without a login?

Because this scraper uses only the public guest page, a few fields are auth-gated and come back as null, [], or "": the full office list (HQ only), geo-coordinates, full-size cover image, funding, verification timestamp, post hashtags, and the numeric ids of related pages (exposed as slugs to guests). Numeric-id inputs are also auth-gated — use the slug or URL instead.

💳 Pricing

This actor uses the pay-per-event model. You are charged per successfully collected company (company-detail event). You only pay for companies that return data — skipped/blocked lookups are not charged.

---

❓ FAQ

Do I need a LinkedIn account or cookies? No. The scraper only reads the public, logged-out company page.

Can I pass numeric company ids? You can, but LinkedIn redirects numeric ids to the login wall for guests, so prefer the slug (google) or URL.

Why are some fields empty? Those fields are only visible to logged-in users. See What's available without a login? above.

Is it safe from layout changes? The parser prefers stable JSON-LD / Open Graph sources with multiple fallbacks, and flags companies missing core fields.

⚖️ Legal & Compliance
