Meet the Founders
FounderManthan Koolwal
Hey There 👋, Thanks for reading about me. I’m Manthan Koolwal, the founder of Scrapingdog. Here’s a little story about how it all started.
Back in college, I was first introduced to web scraping by a college mate. I teamed up with him and we built an API to track railway tickets, PNR numbers, and seat availability. To our surprise, one of the giants in the railway booking system reached out and acquired our API for $36K in 2017. That was my “aha” moment, and it laid the foundation for Scrapingdog.
In 2019 I launched Makcorps, a tool for real-time hotel price data from 200+ OTAs, and later a similar product for flight data. Both gained great traction. Inspired by that success, in 2021 Scrapingdog was born, launched to be a tool that can scrape data from any source on the web. Our journey is just beginning, and I’m excited about everything we’ll continue to bring to web scraping.
CTO & Co-FounderDarshan Khandelwal
Hey There 👋, CTO and Co-Founder of Scrapingdog here!! For me it started back in my school days, coding was something I developed an interest in at an early age. Yes, I am a coding geek!!
During school I built games and apps that let me explore the insanity of the coding world. I came to know about web scraping from my elder brother Manthan. He worked on his product in the morning, and taught me scraping skills at night. In mid-2022 I launched SerpDog, dedicated to scraping Google search and other Google products. SerpDog became profitable and is still rated 4.7 on Trustpilot.
In August 2024, Manthan and I decided to integrate Scrapingdog and SerpDog. What does this mean for you? Simple, you get the best of both worlds in one package. Cheers! 🍺

What our customers are saying
Real, unfiltered feedback from developers using Scrapingdog every day.
Before I found Scrapingdog I had to do everything myself, rotating proxies, arranging user agents, and lots of Python coding with tears. I found it very easy to use, accurate, and all-round a brilliant solution.
I don’t know much about the internet and scraping, but everything still worked very easily for me here. I will recommend it to others.
They are fast at responding to my questions and have a very targeted scraping system that allows me to jump in and get to work on a very targeted scrape.
These guys make learning APIs and web scraping crazy easy. You can’t go wrong with their system and help.
Reliable, fast and low-cost. Simple to use, inexpensive, and has packaged solutions for every need (Google, LinkedIn). Highly recommend.
I work at a company where we pay $1M+ for multiple SaaS tools. Somehow, Scrapingdog can do customer service better than any other company I’ve experienced so far.
We work hard, we party harder
Meet the real us, when we’re not shipping new APIs — cheers to the moments that make the work worth it.
