firecrawl-company-directories
Extract structured company lists from directories with Firecrawl. Use for scraping YC, Crunchbase, Product Hunt, G2, startup directories, category directories, or custom company databases into JSON, CSV, CRM-ready lists, or research tables.
Overview
Firecrawl Company Directories
Use this to turn startup or company directories into structured lists.
Onboarding Interview
Infer the directory, filters, result count, and output format from context. If the source is clear, proceed immediately.
Ask at most 1-3 concise questions only if blocked, such as the directory URL/name, required filters, or target result count.
Firecrawl Collection Plan
Use Firecrawl browser when the directory needs filters, pagination, infinite scroll, or profile clicks. Use scrape/map when listings are public and static.
Suggested sources include YC companies, Crunchbase, Product Hunt, G2 categories, or any custom directory URL.
Extraction Fields
Capture fields that are visible:
- name
- description
- industry/category
- stage/founded/location/team size/funding when visible
- tags
- directory profile URL
- company website URL
Leave unavailable fields blank. Do not infer.
