A: Monthly.
A: Monthly bill is calculated based on data volume. Eg: If we are crawling a site and deliver, say, 75,000 records in a month, cost for this site on the monthly bill would be: $37.5 (for volume fee)+ $79 (towards site maintenance & monitoring fee) = $116.5 for the month.
Note – this is assuming volume fee to be $5 per 10k records (prorated) and monthly site maintenance & monitoring fee as $79/site.
A: The monthly maintenance and monitoring fee covers technical support, overheads in maintaining the data pipeline and related infrastructure as well as fixing the crawlers in case a target site undergoes structural changes.
A: Yes, our service comes with a lock-in period of 3 months. Once we setup a crawler, we would expect the site to be crawled for a minimum of 3 months at a frequency of at least one crawl per month.
A: Yes, our standard offering assumes a maximum of 10 fields. More fields can certainly be extracted, but at a higher fee.
A: Invoices get generated during the first week of every month and you will receive it in your registered email address. You can also login to CrawlBoard to view the invoices.
A: You can make payments (as well as view current/past invoices) by visiting https://app.promptcloud.com/my/invoices.
A: There are no additional charges based on frequency. However, volume charges may increase based on the number of records we deliver, which may be directly related to the crawl frequency.
A: Yes, new sites can be added any time. Just that the newly added sites will incur their own setup fee and time for setting up crawlers.
A: Yes! In fact, our offerings are classified based on volumes. We will also be happy to work out attractive discounts in case your monthly data volumes are expected to be in millions.
A: Yes, for customized delivery mechanisms (FTP, Amazon S3, Dropbox or Box), there will be an additional fee of $30 per month. Our default delivery mechanism is via PromptCloud Data API, which is free.
A: Although our model is most suited for recurring data needs, we do entertain one-time requests once in a while if your requirements excite us.
A: As a crawling company we respect the robots.txt file. Popular social media platforms – Facebook and LinkedIn legally disallow crawling and hence, it will not be feasible to extract data from such sites.
A: Add-on services and their pricing are as below:
A: Sample feeds are free and can be subscribed to without a credit card. We crawl a few selected sites/categories in a predefined format and frequency (weekly in most cases). The data is then made available as free sample feeds. There will not be any technical support or customizations for sample feeds.
