Kununu Scraper API - Bewertungen, Gehälter & Benefits

⚡ Scrape any company on Kununu by name or URL, in three modes: employee & candidate reviews (title, score, 13 factor ratings, pros/cons texts), salary ranges per job title (min / median / max / average with entry counts), or the full company profile — kununu score, factor breakdown, recommendation rate, industry benchmark, salary stats and Kununu's AI review summary. Pay per result.

Why this scraper

• Three products in one — reviews, salaries and company intelligence, consistently shaped, each row carrying the company context block.
• Complete, not just the first page — Kununu shows ten reviews per listing and asks visitors to sign up for the rest. This Actor never logs in: it walks the listing through every filter facet (year, score, status, position, department…) and every sort order, splitting until each subset fits a page, and deduplicates by review id — reaching every review the site exposes publicly. Very large companies (thousands of reviews) are bounded by a per-company request budget; use maxReviewsPerCompany to size runs.
• Every input wired — names, URLs, modes, country fallback, candidate reviews: everything declared actually works.
• Honest reporting — the input_status report in OUTPUT says what each input resolved to and why anything came back empty.

FAQ

Is this legal? The Actor reads only publicly displayed content — the same pages any visitor sees. Reviews are anonymous; no accounts are used, no login wall is bypassed. You are responsible for using the output in compliance with applicable laws and Kununu's terms.

A company returns 0 rows? Check input_status in the run's OUTPUT: it reports what the name resolved to (slug, country) and Kununu's own review total. Try the exact profile URL if a name is ambiguous.

What currency are salaries in? Kununu shows gross yearly salaries in the profile country's currency (EUR for de/at, CHF for ch, USD for us).

Why residential proxies? Kununu is strict with automated traffic; the default residential proxy settings give the most reliable results — keep them unless you run your own proxies.
