Output fields

Notes and limits

• Phone and email on SERP. A standout feature: both are returned directly from the result page, no detail page round-trip required. You can run cheap SERP-only mode and still get usable contact data
• Qwik framework parsing. The scraper extracts structured JSON from herold.at's Qwik client bundle for rating and category data
• Set includeDetails: true for website, opening hours, and geo coordinates
