Capabilities

Grocery data extraction, mapped to the shelf

Our scraper handles the complex session state required for Kroger properties. We bypass WAFs, simulate store-specific ZIP codes, and extract pricing, inventory, and nutritional data directly from the frontend APIs.

Store-Level Pricing

Grocery pricing is highly localised. We simulate ZIP codes and maintain store-specific session cookies to extract the exact shelf price for any given location.

Digital Coupon Extraction

Extract available digital coupons, discount values, expiration dates, and the specific UPCs they apply to across the entire catalogue.

Nutritional & Ingredient Parsing

Capture macros, ingredient lists, allergen warnings, and dietary tags like Keto or Gluten-Free directly from product detail pages.

Inventory & Stock Status

Monitor stock levels, out-of-stock flags, and ClickList pickup availability for specific store locations in real time.

Weekly Ad Scraping

Digitise weekly circulars. We extract promotional items, BOGO deals, and valid date ranges tied to specific store IDs.

UPC & Product Mapping

Extract standard UPCs and internal product IDs to map Smith's Food and Drug inventory against your existing CPG databases.

Pharmacy & Store Metadata

Scrape store addresses, operating hours, pharmacy services, and fuel centre availability across the entire network.

Scheduled + Streaming Modes

Run one-off bulk exports or configure continuous pipelines at hourly, daily, or real-time cadences with change-detection diffing.

Fuel Points & Promotions

Track loyalty program multipliers, seasonal promotions, and fuel point bonuses attached to specific product categories.

Under the hood

How our grocery pipeline handles the hard parts

Kroger properties use advanced bot protection and complex session states. Here is how we stay resilient.

Anti-bot layer
Residential proxy rotation + WAF bypass

Smith's Food and Drug relies on strict WAF rules to block automated traffic. Our crawlers use US-based residential ISP proxies with realistic browser fingerprints and full cookie session management to bypass Akamai and PerimeterX protections.

Session state
Localised pricing via store ID injection

You cannot scrape generic prices. We maintain hundreds of concurrent sessions, injecting specific ZIP codes and store IDs into the cookies to ensure the pricing and inventory data reflects the actual local shelf.

API interception
Direct backend hydration

Instead of parsing complex frontend DOM structures, our Playwright scripts intercept the underlying GraphQL and REST API calls used by the Smith's frontend, extracting clean, structured JSON data directly.

Change detection
Only re-scrape what's changed

For large grocery catalogues, we maintain a hash index of last-seen values per field. Subsequent runs only push diffs, reducing compute cost and downstream processing load.

Monitoring & alerting
24/7 pipeline health with anomaly detection

Every run emits structured logs to our observability stack. We alert on null-rate spikes, price outliers, and coverage drops, responding before you notice.

Infrastructure

Infrastructure powering the grocery pipeline

Open-source tooling on proven cloud infra — no vendor lock-in, full observability.

ScrapyPlaywrightPython 3.12RedisPostgreSQLApache AirflowAWS LambdaS3CloudWatch2CaptchaCapSolverResidential ProxiesDockerKubernetesGrafanaPrometheus
Scrapy + Playwright Stack

Scrapy handles crawl orchestration, deduplication, and retry logic. Playwright handles JavaScript rendering, cookie sessions, and interaction flows. Combined via scrapy-playwright middleware.

Residential Proxy Infrastructure

We maintain pools of residential ISP proxies across US regions. Rotation happens per-request with sticky sessions where required. IP score monitoring prevents blacklisted pool contamination.

Cloud-Native Orchestration

Pipelines run on AWS Lambda (burst) and ECS (sustained). Airflow handles scheduling, dependency management, and SLA alerting. All state stored in managed Postgres.

Common questions.

About smithsfoodanddrug.com scraping, legality, and pipeline operations.

Ask us directly →
Is scraping Smith's Food and Drug legal?

Scraping publicly available pricing, nutritional data, and store information is generally permissible. DataFlirt targets only public, non-authenticated data. We do not extract personal user data or circumvent authentication walls. Clients should review terms of service and consult legal counsel for specific use cases.

How do you bypass Kroger's bot protection?

We use US residential ISP proxies, full Playwright browser sessions with realistic fingerprints, and request timing modelled on human behaviour to navigate WAF challenges and CAPTCHAs.

Can you extract prices for specific store locations?

Yes. We manage session cookies and simulate specific ZIP codes or store IDs during the crawl to ensure the extracted price reflects the exact local store.

How fresh is the inventory data?

We can configure pipelines to run at hourly cadences for specific high-priority UPCs to monitor stock status and ClickList availability in near real-time.

Do you scrape digital coupons and weekly ads?

Yes. We extract all active digital coupons, their terms, and qualifying UPCs. We also digitise weekly ad flyers, mapping promotional items to specific store locations.

What is the minimum viable engagement?

Our smallest packages start at a defined UPC list or specific category set with weekly delivery. For full-catalogue extraction across multiple store locations, we price based on volume and frequency.

Can I request a sample dataset before committing?

Absolutely. We provide a sample run of up to 500 UPCs mapped to a specific store ID as part of the pre-engagement scoping process.
