Get in touchFAQ
Which sites can I scrape?
Any ranking, study portal or government school register that shows its schools on public pages, as well as programme catalogues and journal listings.
Can I get details from each school's own page?
Yes. Simplescraper can open each school's page and read its enrollment, majors and tuition into the same row.
Can I compare rankings across editions?
Yes. Schedule the recipe and every run keeps its results, so each edition sits beside the last.
Can I collect several rankings at once?
Yes. Add one link per ranking or state list and a single recipe runs them all.
Do I need to write code or selectors?
No. Select one school and Simplescraper reads the same fields from every other school in the list.
Can it fill in figures a site does not show?
No. Simplescraper returns what each page shows, so a school listed without a test score range keeps that cell empty.
