Output fields

Notes and limits

• DataDome protection. Kompass uses DataDome anti-bot. The scraper uses Apify Residential proxy with country matching. If first run returns thin data, retry; fresh residential IPs typically pass on retry
• Field coverage varies by country. Some Kompass country sites publish revenue and employees publicly, others only on detail pages. Set includeDetails: true for the deepest coverage
• Email is best-effort. Kompass does not publish email for every company. Pair with our Website Contact Extractor to fill the gap
