Every iQIYI title page names the countries it may play in. A Chinese costume drama is cleared almost everywhere; a licensed Korean series, in nine Southeast Asian markets.

You choose the channels, the origins, the depth - titles only, or every episode with its subtitle and dub tracks - and the markets whose prices you need. We build the iQIYI scraper, run it daily or weekly and deliver CSV, JSON, XLSX or an iQIYI API endpoint, with field names agreed before the first run.
Keeping the collector alive is our job: anti-bot handling, proxy rotation and CAPTCHA solving are part of the service, and when iq.com changes its front end we fix the parser. An iQIYI scraping project stays on pages a signed-out visitor can open; we never sign in and never touch the player or its streams. Viewer comments and profiles stay out - we collect the catalogue only.
No login stands in front of an iq.com title page, and most of the record - series and episodes - ships in the page itself. For each title we extract from iQIYI:
Two things the record leaves out: a licence end date, and a premiere date for coming-soon titles, which carry a reservation flag and a pilot or trailer instead. Both come from comparing dated snapshots.
Pricing is where iQIYI differs most between markets, and the fee can depend on country and device. The iQIYI VIP plans break down like this:
For a streaming price tracker, each price becomes a row - market, tier, period, channel, currency, amount and date - so a rise like the Malaysian one shows up the day it lands.
iq.com is iQIYI International, the storefront iQIYI, Inc. (Nasdaq: IQ) opened in June 2019 for viewers outside mainland China, run by IQIYI International Singapore Pte. Ltd. Its Browse library splits the iQIYI catalogue into four channels, and the filters show how it is cut:
Many Thai BL series, and Indonesian and Malaysian dramas, run as iQIYI Only exclusives, the latter produced by iQIYI itself. There is no iQIYI short drama list on the web: shorts are routed to the mobile app. iQIYI puts the reach at 191 territories with the interface and subtitles in 12 languages, yet rights are bought title by title, so lineup, Browse results and checkout currency all follow the viewer's country. Partners carry it too: Astro in Malaysia since November 2019, co-branded VIP with sooka and Indonesia's Vision+, and telcos from Maxis to Telkomsel. The last count of iQIYI subscribers covers the fourth quarter of 2023 - 100.3 million members on an average day, group-wide - and later results carry no such figure; iq.com is not reported separately.
Delivery: CSV, JSON or XLSX files, our API or a JSON feed. MCP server on request.
Full plan detailsNobody buys an iQIYI list of movies to read it once. The value sits in the fields that move: rights, VIP locks, dubs and chart positions.
What they share is a need for history: the same title seen week after week, so a lost market, a new dub or a VIP lock arrives as a dated change.
Learn how to use web scraping to solve data problems for your organization
Data scraping is the wide term that includes documents, scans and old screens; web scraping is the part that works on websites. We compare sources, daily work, output and cost drivers, give a briefing checklist and walk through two of our projects.
Leveraging advances in technology, the AI-powered web scraper has skyrocketed in demand and is helping to expand capabilities by automating tedious daily tasks and speeding up data collection from thousands of websites several times over.
Web scraping is a method of obtaining web data by extracting it from pages of web resources with the help of a program, that is, in automatic mode. It is used to syntactically convert web pages into more usable forms.
ScrapeIt is a managed web scraping agency. We write, host and maintain the collector, and you receive finished files or an endpoint rather than a tool to look after. An iQIYI project usually starts with a paid sample - one channel with every episode, its subtitle and dub tracks and its rights list, plus the VIP prices of three markets - so you can test the fields before a schedule is set. Delivery goes to S3, GCS, SFTP, a webhook or your database.

Yes. The ScrapeIt iQIYI API returns episode counts, age ratings, scores, credits, regionsAllowed and VIP prices as JSON from an endpoint we host, with a market filter, refreshed on the schedule you set. The same data also comes as CSV or XLSX files or straight into your database. We extract iQIYI data from title, episode and checkout pages alike.
iQIYI says the service reaches 191 territories. Each title is licensed on its own, though: Chinese dramas list nearly every country code, older Korean dramas often only Southeast Asia, and a Vietnamese-dubbed Chinese drama is cleared for Vietnam, the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Even the channels vary - a viewer in Germany gets Drama, Movie, Anime and Variety Show. We deliver one row per title per country from the rights field.
It depends on the channel as much as the market, because iQIYI subscription plans are also resold by telcos. The iQIYI price Singapore resellers publish is S$8.98 a month for Standard at StarHub and Singtel. In the Philippines, Globe sells 7-, 30- and 90-day Standard passes, PHP 145 for 30 days, and a 30-day Basic pass at PHP 73. In Indonesia, Telkomsel bundles Basic, Standard and Premium with viewing data at 19, 39 and 59 thousand rupiah for 30 days. Australia, Canada and the UK are priced in local currency as well. We merge web, app-store and telco prices into one streaming services price list.
Daily for airing titles, because the iQIYI release schedule runs in daily or weekday drops and a VIP-only episode can open to free viewers later. Weekly suits catalogue and rights tracking and lines up with the TOP 10, refreshed every Tuesday. What's new on iQIYI shows as Just Added and New Episode badges; iQIYI coming soon titles sit in a reservable row and the Most Anticipated chart until they go online. Output is CSV, JSON, XLSX or an API, delivered to S3, GCS, SFTP or a webhook, each row stamped with market and snapshot date.
Yes. Everything we take from iq.com is public: titles, genres, episodes, cast and directors, age ratings, scores, subtitle and audio tracks, VIP flags, prices and the countries each title may play in - all of it shown to any visitor, and all of it collected legally. We work only on pages a signed-out visitor can open, we never log in, and we never touch the player, the video streams or their protection.
You share your needs, expectations, and desired timeframe. We'll suggest the best solution based on your request and budget.
Our specialists configure the crawlers and extract a sample dataset for your review before proceeding with the full-scale extraction.
Once you approve the sample, we launch the project and start full data collection. We gather, filter, and structure the data for easy use, delivering it on time in your preferred format.
Our team manages ongoing processes, monitors website changes, and supports all data extraction cycles. We can also help integrate data into your systems or create dashboards to simplify analysis.
Tell us which sites, which fields and how often. A couple of lines is enough to start.
