Data as a Service: How to Package Scraped Data and Sell It

You can build a business selling data you scrape. Here is how.

The Business Model

  1. Scrape valuable data regularly
  2. Clean and structure it
  3. Sell access via subscription or one-time purchase

Examples of Sellable Datasets

Dataset Audience Price
Real estate listings by city Investors $50-200
Job market salary data HR teams $100-500
E-commerce price trends Retailers $50-200
Competitor review analysis Marketing teams $50-200
Technology trends (GitHub/HN) VCs, analysts $50-500

Where to Sell

  • Gumroad/Payhip — direct sales, no approval needed
  • Kaggle — free listing, builds reputation
  • RapidAPI — sell as API endpoints
  • Your own website — keep 100% revenue

My Approach

I generated 500 free market research reports using 9 public APIs. Free reports drive traffic, paid custom reports generate revenue.
