FirmenABC.at Scraper

Pull Austrian company profiles from FirmenABC.at at scale — full structured addresses, phone, fax, email, website, industry, GPS coordinates, and the official register identity that other directory scrapers leave behind: the Firmenbuchnummer, the UID-Nummer (VAT ID), the founding year, the employee band, and the named management (Geschäftsführer). Built for B2B sales teams, market researchers, recruiters, and KYC/compliance analysts who need verified Austrian company records — complete with the official register numbers — without copying them out of FirmenABC one profile at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• Official Firmenbuchnummer on every detail-enriched company — the Austrian commercial-register number that turns a directory listing into a verifiable legal entity, captured straight from the company profile. Most FirmenABC scrapers omit it entirely.
• UID-Nummer (Austrian VAT ID) for tax and KYC checks — the ATU VAT identifier surfaced alongside the register number, ready for VIES validation and supplier onboarding.
• Named management with roles — each Geschäftsführer / vertretungsbefugte Person returned as a {name, role} pair (e.g. "GESCHÄFTSFÜHRER/IN (handelsrechtlich)"), so you know who actually signs for the company.
• Structured 6-part address plus GPS — street, postal code, city, district (Bezirk), state (Bundesland), and country split into separate fields, with latitude and longitude when published — no flat address string to re-parse.
• All 9 Austrian Bundesländer in one search — Wien, Niederösterreich, Oberösterreich, Steiermark, Tirol, Salzburg, Kärnten, Vorarlberg, and Burgenland; leave the location empty to sweep the whole country at once.
• Founding year and employee band — Gründungsjahr and the size band for company-age and headcount segmentation, drawn from the official profile.
• What-plus-where search or direct URLs — query by keyword, industry (Branche), or company name paired with a region, or paste FirmenABC.at result, category, and company-profile URLs to scrape exactly what you already found.
• Two speed/cost modes in one toggle — full detail enrichment for register identity, contacts, and management, or a fast listing-only harvest of company name, phone, address, and FirmenABC profile URL when you just need a wide net.

Getting Started

Search by Keyword and Region

The simplest way to start — one search term and an Austrian region:

{
    "searchQueries": ["Rechtsanwalt"],
    "location": "Wien"
}

Fast Listing-Only Harvest

Turn off detail enrichment for a quick, low-cost sweep of company names, phones, and profile URLs:

{
    "searchQueries": ["Restaurant"],
    "location": "Steiermark",
    "includeDetails": false,
    "maxResults": 500
}

Full Detail Run with Mixed Sources

Combine a keyword search with pasted FirmenABC.at URLs and pull every register field:

{
    "searchQueries": ["Bauunternehmen", "Software"],
    "location": "Oberösterreich",
    "searchUrls": [
        "https://www.firmenabc.at/suche/ergebnisse?...",
        "https://www.firmenabc.at/example-gmbh_aB1cD"
    ],
    "includeDetails": true,
    "maxResults": 2000
}

Input Reference

Search

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
searchQueries	array of strings	["Rechtsanwalt"]	What to find on FirmenABC.at — a keyword, an industry (Branche), or a company name (e.g. "Software", "Restaurant", "Bauunternehmen"). One row per search term. Leave empty if you are only using direct URLs.
location	string	"Wien"	Where in Austria to search. Works best with a region name: Wien, Niederösterreich, Oberösterreich, Steiermark, Tirol, Salzburg, Kärnten, Vorarlberg, or Burgenland. Leave empty to search all of Austria.
searchUrls	array of strings	[]	Paste FirmenABC.at URLs directly: search / category result pages, or individual company-profile pages. Any filters baked into the URL are honored as-is. Scraped in addition to the search above.

Output Detail & Limits

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
includeDetails	boolean	true	Visit each company's profile page to enrich the row with the official Firmenbuchnummer, UID-Nummer, founding year, employee band, management, email, website, and the full structured address. Turn off for faster, cheaper runs that return only listing data (name, phone, address, industry).
maxResults	integer	100	Hard cap on total company rows across all searches and URLs. Set to 0 for no cap (an internal upper limit of 50,000 rows per run still applies). The run stops requesting new pages once this number is reached but keeps the full final page even if it slightly overshoots.

Output

Each company is returned as a single flat record. Detail-enriched runs populate the register, contact, and management fields below; listing-only runs (includeDetails: false) return the company name, FirmenABC.at profile URL, and capture timestamp.

Tips for Best Results

• Leave location empty to sweep all of Austria, then filter by the state (Bundesland) field downstream — this captures every region in one run instead of nine separate searches.
• Turn off includeDetails for a fast, cheap name-and-URL harvest when you only need to know which companies exist; re-run with details on for just the URLs you want to enrich.
• Use a Bundesland name rather than a city in location — region-level terms (Wien, Steiermark, Tirol) match far more reliably than narrow city names.
• Register fields are populated for incorporated companies (GmbH, AG, KG). Sole practitioners and freelancers often have no Firmenbuchnummer or management list — that is expected, not an error.
• Split very large jobs across multiple search terms or regions rather than one enormous run — several focused queries paginate more cleanly than a single nationwide sweep.
• Paste FirmenABC.at URLs to target an exact result set — any filters baked into the URL are honored, so you can refine on the site and let the actor collect the page.
• Combine keyword and company-name searches in one searchQueries list to cover both a whole industry and specific named targets in a single run.

Pricing

From $1.80 per 1,000 results — undercutting comparable Austrian directory extractors while returning the official register identity they leave out. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows the total cost at each discount tier.
