Navratri Mega Sale Price Tracking

About the Client

Location: Boulder, United States

Goal: To develop a scalable, full-stack web scraping solution that can collect real-time market trend data from multiple US retail business websites.

The client wanted to monitor pricing, product availability, store contact details, and location data for competitive and market trend analysis. The objective was to generate actionable insights and deliver the final dataset in clean, structured CSV format, suitable for analytics tools like Power BI and Tableau.

Challenges

Collecting accurate and fresh retail data from multiple sources can be tricky due to:

  • Dynamic page structures – Retail sites often use JavaScript-heavy rendering (React/Vue-based frontends).
  • Varying data formats – Price, availability, and store information differ widely between websites.
  • Data freshness – Pricing and stock data change frequently; daily updates were essential.
  • Legal compliance – Ensuring ethical and compliant scraping following each site's terms.

The client's internal team lacked full-stack scraping expertise, particularly for automating multi-site collection and managing data validation. They partnered with Actowiz Solutions to architect, build, and deploy a robust scraping framework from the ground up.

Project Objectives

Actowiz Solutions was tasked to:

  • Build a Python/Node.js-based web scraping engine for US retail businesses.
  • Extract pricing, product availability, store details (address, contact number, website).
  • Automate daily updates and export structured data in .csv format.
  • Implement error handling, rate limiting, and logging for reliability.
  • Maintain full compliance with data and privacy standards.

Solution Overview

Actowiz Solutions implemented a modular scraping system built on Python (Scrapy + Selenium) for dynamic websites, and Node.js (Puppeteer) for JavaScript-heavy pages.

The architecture allowed multiple websites to be scraped simultaneously, normalized into a single dataset, and updated daily.

Technical Architecture

Navratri Mega Sale Price Tracking
1. Data Collection Layer

Tools Used: Scrapy, Selenium, BeautifulSoup, Puppeteer

Function: Crawlers built per domain to extract data fields:

  • Product Name
  • Price
  • Availability
  • Website URL
  • Address & Phone Number

Each scraper was tuned to respect site load limits (delays and proxy rotation).

2. Data Normalization Layer

Python Scripts: Cleaned raw text into standardized units.

Parsing Logic: Extracted prices using regex and normalized currency (USD).

Availability Mapping: Converted terms like "In stock," "Available soon," "Limited stock" into binary 1/0 indicators.

3. Storage & Output Layer

Data Stored As: CSV and JSON formats

Cloud Integration: AWS S3 for daily file storage, plus optional API delivery.

Schema:

Field Description
Product Name Item title or description
Price (USD) Extracted numeric price
Availability In Stock / Out of Stock
Store Name Retailer Name
Address Store location
Phone Number Contact number
Website URL Direct link to product or store
Last Updated Timestamp for freshness
4. Validation & Quality Control

Actowiz Solutions ensured >97% accuracy through:

  • Duplicate Detection: URL-based de-duplication.
  • Regex Validation: For phone, URL, and numeric fields.
  • Cross-checking: Against store API or Google Business listings (where available).
5. Automation & Monitoring

Daily automated runs using cron jobs on a cloud VM.

Logging pipeline via Elastic Stack to monitor errors and request volumes.

Email alerts for failed tasks or site structure changes.
