Rank-tier cut of email-provider signals in our 1M-site tech-stack census: two providers climb toward the top, one stays flat, one climbs toward the tail.
H&R Block dominates Google Maps at 22.8%. Its biggest rivals show up at 0.4% each — not because they're small, but because they're invisible.
One public company (Driven Brands) owns Take 5, Meineke, Maaco, and CARSTAR — four brands that read as unrelated auto shops.
One PE-owned conglomerate (Sonic + Arby's + Dunkin') controls 11.2% of US fast food listings — almost matching McDonald's 13.0% alone.
A TLD-level cut of our 1,000,000-site tech-stack census: .ai domains run Next.js at 6x the rate of .com, and even basic reachability swings by TLD.
We mapped 38,332 US hotels by website domain. Marriott, Hilton, Choice, Wyndham, and IHG combine for 58% — hidden behind dozens of unrelated brand names.
We mapped 62,892 US bank branches and 14,620 credit unions. Rural states have far more per capita than cities, and the 9 biggest banks are only 31% of listings.
We mapped 11,469 US cannabis dispensaries. Medical-only Oklahoma beats nearly every recreational-legal state — legal status barely predicts store density.
Extraction reliability isn't the hard part of web scraping anymore. Scheduling, change detection, and dedup are — and here's what actually closes that gap.
We mapped 42,506 US liquor retailers by state. Retail-control states average half the outlets of license states — Utah is last nationally at 1.94 per 100k.
Crawlora's Jobs remote_open rose from ~27k to 47,807 after free-text inference. Ashby flags ~59% remote; Workday ~2%. That gap is data quality, not the market.
A publisher labeled 'Generic' relabels its reprint year as publication year — explaining 96% of every Leather Bound book in a 20.9M-record Goodreads crawl.
We mapped Meijer, Publix, Wegmans, and WinCo state by state. Michigan and Florida each run ~2x their runner-up — real regional grocery monopolies, measured.
We stratified-sampled 208,621 Instagram business accounts across 7 follower bands. About 46% never picked a category Meta calls a mandatory setup step.
A suspicious pattern — dozens of managers capped at exactly 2,000 positions — turned out to be real. Here's the proof, and what's still trustworthy.
Scrape SHEIN in 2026 — product search, detail, category listings, filter facets, navigation, and trending keywords as structured JSON — DIY, no-code, or API.
SHEIN has three anti-bot layers: request signing, a device fingerprint, and a device identity. How each works, and why the right path is not defeating them.
We tagged 190,589 GitHub developers by specialty. India leads only 2 of 9 domains; Nigeria's web3 tag rate over-indexes 7.8x, the biggest skew we found.

We ranked 132M+ Google Maps listings by US county. LA tops the raw table at 409K — but sum New York's five boroughs and NYC actually leads by 20%.
The manual Reddit/Product Hunt/Trends idea-validation workflow, run through real APIs instead — plus how to hand it to Claude Code or ChatGPT.
Google Maps caps every search at ~120 results. Here's the real architecture behind a 132.2M-listing dataset: seeding, tiling, and three production incidents.
We mapped 7 retail chains across all 50 states by Google Maps listings. Raw counts favor Texas everywhere — per capita, Mississippi and DC actually lead.
10,000 TrustMRR listings, verified: AI beats SaaS on revenue too (not just hype), the median startup has $0 MRR, and bigger businesses sell for LOWER multiples.
We mapped 395,000+ churches by state and category. The Bible Belt leads clearly — and Utah's near-last rank exposed a real Google Maps taxonomy quirk.
