About Scrapfly
We build the data collection infrastructure that powers web scraping, extraction, and automation for developers and businesses worldwide.
Our Mission
At Scrapfly, we believe web data should be accessible to every business. We build battle-tested APIs that handle the hardest parts of data collection - anti-bot bypass, browser rendering, proxy rotation, and structured extraction - so engineering teams can focus on what they do with the data, not how to get it.
Our platform is used by startups, enterprises, AI researchers, and data engineers across every industry. From training LLMs on web content to monitoring competitor pricing, Scrapfly powers the data pipelines behind thousands of products.
Bootstrapped from Day One
Scrapfly is a product of Joam Intelligence, LLC, a privately held, fully bootstrapped company. We started building Scrapfly for ourselves in 2017, opened it to the public in 2020, and have been growing organically since - funded entirely by our customers, not by venture capital.
Being bootstrapped means every decision we make is driven by what's best for our users, not by growth metrics for investors. We ship fast, stay lean, and reinvest profits directly into the platform.
What We Build
Proprietary Technology
Under the hood, Scrapfly is powered by two proprietary C/C++ projects that we build and maintain in-house:
Scrapium
Our custom Chromium fork built specifically for web scraping. Deep anti-detection patches provide end-to-end fingerprint coherence, making browser sessions indistinguishable from real users. Powers our Cloud Browser and JavaScript rendering.
Curlium
Our custom curl fork specializing in HTTP client impersonation. Defeats TLS, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3 fingerprinting detection by replicating authentic browser network signatures at the protocol level.
Both projects are maintained by our core engineering team and updated continuously to stay ahead of evolving anti-bot systems.
Engineering-First Culture
Scrapfly is built by engineers, for engineers. Our founding team has deep expertise in distributed systems, browser automation, network protocols, and anti-bot evasion. We operate at the intersection of web infrastructure and data engineering.
We're a small, focused team that ships daily. Every engineer works across the full stack - from low-level proxy networking to the React dashboards our users see. We believe in keeping teams small, ownership high, and bureaucracy nonexistent.
Our Values
Ship Fast
We deploy multiple times a day. Small teams, fast feedback, minimal process.
Reliability First
Our users depend on us for production workloads. Uptime and consistency are non-negotiable.
Teach, Don't Gate
We publish extensive free guides, tools, and scrapers. Knowledge should be accessible to all.
