Case Study: ShopGrok achieves real-time retail price intelligence at scale with Bright Data

ShopGrok tracks up to 100,000 products per retailer with Bright Data

ShopGrok, an Australian startup providing retail price intelligence, faced significant challenges as public web data collection became increasingly difficult due to access barriers and geo-located pricing. Their ability to deliver real-time competitive insights was threatened by unreliable scraping, CAPTCHA blocks, and billing outages, which pulled engineering focus away from their core analytics work. They turned to Bright Data's proxy and web unlocking services to handle this infrastructure complexity.

By implementing Bright Data's tiered solution, including Datacenter Proxies, Residential Proxies, and Web Unlocker, ShopGrok optimized cost and performance. This allowed them to capture full product details and geo-located pricing, expanding both the volume and depth of their data. As a result, Bright Data enabled ShopGrok to reliably serve over 25% of Australia's top retailers, tracking up to 100,000 products per retailer with 10-20 daily price updates per product.
