Merit stays at the forefront of tech, using AI and ML to harvest, aggregate and transform data.

Our state-of-the-art eCommerce data harvesting engine collects raw data and provides actionable insights

  • Three to four times faster than standard scrapers 
  • At lower cost  
  • With increased accuracy (up to 30% compared to standard scrapers) 

Our powerful, new scraper engine can gather massive data sets from multiple sites and geographies in real-time so you can stay informed on customer behaviours and market trends. 

Our eCommerce data engine provides:  

Enriched data 

Deliver rich SKU detail: including product variants, pricing, availability, discounts, product rankings, reviews, images, regulatory details 

Data Confidence 

We detect issues in real-time allowing us to fix issues quicker, eliminating unnecessary processing, and an increased ability to meet SLAs. Our QA service is based on Machine Learning automation, coupled with managed workflow for appropriate manual intervention points. 

Minutes not Days 

Our engine allows you to onboard new eCommerce data sources in minutes, instead of days. It then scrapes data from multiple sources, geographies and formats up to four times faster than the average web scraping engine.  

Seamless experience 

Connect the way you want, AWS S3, Azure data lake, FTP, Dropbox… and more. In short, we’ve got you covered. We will scale optimally to meet demand and take a cloud agnostic approach, allowing us to deploy to any desired cloud provider. 

How do we reduce cost? 

Our technology minimises the level of site blocking and reduces the need for proxy IP routing, thereby reducing cost significantly

What our clients say about working with Merit

  • Merit have performed at an exceptionally high standard all year for Fitch. 

    They’ve listened and worked hard to accommodate our data requirements of varying complexity, all delivered to time and without errors. 

    I always used to spot check the data which was sent but so trusting am I now with the process that this is no longer needed. This means I can spend my time on other matters with the trust I have with Kamal and the team to take care of the data. 

    Julia and I really enjoy working with the whole Merit team and the weekly call is definitely one of the highlights of our busy week!
