Introduction

The User Interviews Scraper is a powerful tool designed to extract valuable information about user research studies hosted on UserInterviews.com.

It automatically navigates through study listings, applying your specified filters to ensure you only get the most relevant data, and saves everything in a clean, organized dataset.

Use Cases

• Market Research & Trend Analysis: Monitor how compensation amounts and study types (e.g., focus groups vs. one-on-one) are evolving in the user research industry.
• Participant Discovery: Automate the process of finding new user interview studies that match your specific criteria like study format (online, phone, in-person) or topic.
• Competitor Intelligence: Keep track of the frequency and nature of studies being conducted by different teams and organizations on the platform.

Input

• Study format: Filter studies by how the interview is conducted. Options include:
  • In person
  • Phone
  • Online
• Study type: Filter studies by their category. Options include:
  • One-on-one
