- Automated Extraction: Using software tools and scripts to automate the extraction process from databases, websites, APIs, and other digital sources. Examples include web scraping tools and ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) software.
- Database Querying: Executing queries (e.g., SQL queries) against databases to extract specific data subsets based on defined criteria.
- API Integration: Utilizing APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) to extract data from web services or cloud-based applications in a structured format.

Challenges faced by most Data Collection Companies
Data Quality:
Most data collection companies suffer from the problem of data that has inconsistencies and errors. Therefore any data collection company needs to design and develop the right data gathering and cleaning processes, which involve human verification besides automation.
Data Regulations:
Not all data sourcing companies are strict about the legal issues related to data collection. You must ensure that your data sourcing company adheres to GDPR norms.
Enriching Data:
Most data gathering companies do not have real-time refresh for their databases. They refresh their data quarterly or monthly.
Relevant Data:
Most data extraction companies do not provide customised data services. But data collection companies that work as data partners specialise in bespoke services right from their unique data collection processes to sourcing and verifying the data.
Unique Data:
Most data collection companies cannot provide data that is unique from the competition. That’s because most data gathering companies sell the same databases to multiple users.
