🧠 Smart Scrape: Save up to 70% on Recurring Monitoring

Running hourly or daily deal monitors? Enable Smart Scrape (enableDedup: true) to remember seen listings across runs. You can customize the Deduplication Time Window to match your exact alert schedule:

• 15m / 30m: High-frequency arbitrage alerts (sneakers, electronics)
• 1h: Hourly price drop notifications
• 24h (1 Day): Daily marketplace digests
• 48h (2 Days) / 7d: Weekly inventory audits

How Smart Scrape Protects Your Budget:

On recurring runs, the scraper scans the feed at the low discovery fee ($0.04 for 50 items) and skips the detail fetch on duplicates.

Run Type	Without Smart Scrape	With Smart Scrape (e.g. 1h window)	Your Savings
Run 1 (50 new items)	50 × ($0.0008 + $0.0025) = $0.165	50 × ($0.0008 + $0.0025) = $0.165	Baseline
Run 2 (10 new, 40 dupes)	50 × ($0.0008 + $0.0025) = $0.165	50 × $0.0008 + 10 × $0.0025 = $0.065	60% Cheaper
Run 3 (5 new, 45 dupes)	50 × ($0.0008 + $0.0025) = $0.165	50 × $0.0008 + 5 × $0.0025 = $0.0525	68% Cheaper
Execution Time	~45 seconds	~3 seconds	15x Faster

You can also set dedupAction:

• "skip" (Default): Keeps your dataset 100% clean — only push brand new deals (ideal for webhooks / Zapier alerts so you never get spammed).

• "mark": Pushes all items, tagging duplicates with "isDuplicate": true and "isNew": false.

• 🔗 Direct Search & Listing URL Support: Simply copy and paste any OfferUp search, category, or listing URL from your browser. All filters, keywords, and prices are automatically detected.

• 🚗 Complete Car & Vehicle Specs: Extract vehicle year, make, model, trim, mileage, VIN, transmission, fuel type, and clean/salvage title status directly from auto listings.

• 📍 Precise Local Targeting: Target any 5-digit US ZIP code with customizable search radiuses up to 500 miles.

• 👤 Deep Seller Intelligence: Access seller reputation ratings, total reviews, account age, verified badges, and average response times before making an offer.

• 📸 High-Resolution Photo Galleries: Collect full-size image URLs ready for computer vision, inspection, or e-commerce catalog creation.

• ⚡ Fast & Cost-Effective: Powered by Pay-Per-Event billing—compute is 100% free, and you only pay for successfully extracted listings saved to your dataset.

• ⚙️ Flexible Export: Download clean data directly to Excel, CSV, JSON, or stream it via API and webhooks into your automated workflow.
