Key Details

Industry: Real Estate Solutions Geography: United States

Platform: Cloud + Automated Scraping & Analytics

Business Challenge

The client relied on scraping to collect market data, but the process was slow, brittle, and difficult to scale. Manual steps created gaps in accuracy and delayed updates, limiting visibility for end users.

Manual Data Scraping: Manual data scraping slowed market insights by 12–24 hours . Scraping required hands-on intervention, frequent retries, and custom bypasses for Cloudflare and Captcha. Long-running URLs often stalled, causing inconsistent updates across markets.

Data Quality Issues: Inconsistent data led to forecasting errors and missed opportunities. Listings contained anomalies that required time-consuming manual review. Missing fields, inconsistent formats, and unreliable sources made downstream analytics difficult.

Limited Analytics Infrastructure: Dashboards lived across multiple apps, lacked interactivity, and relied heavily on static tables. Tracking trends or evaluating performance required manual compilation, slowing analysts and product teams.

Our Solution Approach

We automated their data scraping and analytics processes, delivering faster, cleaner data that now powers better decisions and stronger customer engagement.

1 · Build

Scalable Scraping Framework

We created a modular framework to standardize how scraping logic, data sources, and validations were defined. This removed fragile one-off scripts and gave the team a foundation that could support new markets and listing types with minimal effort.

2 · Automate

End-to-End Automated Scraping

We automated the scraping process using AWS, Selenium, and custom handlers to manage long-running URLs and dynamic pages. Retries, failures, and timeouts were handled programmatically, eliminating manual involvement and improving consistency across market updates.

3 · Overcome

Security Bypass + Centralized Dashboards

We used custom code and libraries to bypass Cloudflare, Captcha, and similar blockers, ensuring uninterrupted extraction. We also streamlined Tableau and Shiny dashboards, removing stale views and improving access to current, accurate insights.

4 · Align

Ad-hoc Analysis & Intelligence Layer

We delivered custom reports and on-demand analysis that revealed new usage patterns, emerging markets, and opportunities for customer-service improvement. These insights helped the team make faster, more informed decisions backed by reliable data.
