OpenData / Compare / OpenData vs BuiltWith
OpenData vs BuiltWith, for store lists, not the whole web.
BuiltWith profiles the technology of the whole web — any site, any stack, years of history. OpenData covers one corner of that web, ecommerce stores, and sells what it finds there by the row.
1,504,744 verified stores · 23,984,359 domains scanned · snapshot 15 November 2026The short version
BuiltWith Basic is $295/mo (vendor-reported, checked Nov 2026), and the product earns it if you track technology across millions of unrelated sites. Comparable store databases charge $75–$250/mo as a rule — the subscription is simply how this market bills. But when the job is narrower — stores on a platform, with the contacts those stores publish — a web-wide subscription is a lot of meter for a small pull.
OpenData holds 1,504,744 verified stores, every one of them fetched and checked by our own scan — no bought lists, no broker feeds. Full records cost $4 per 1,000 rows. If you only need the technology picture, platform-and-tech records are $1 per 1,000 rows. The minimum pull is $9.99 and nothing renews.

Where BuiltWith is the better tool
Depth and history. BuiltWith has watched web technology for years, across every kind of site there is. If you need a company's stack history, or technology usage far outside ecommerce, it is the right tool and OpenData is not a substitute. OpenData starts where BuiltWith's map ends for merchants: a store list you can download, with the store's own published contacts attached.
Before you pay either of us
Run the store you care about through the free checker first — free accounts get 30 full-record unlocks a month — and take the free sample file for a spin. If the records hold up, pull exactly the slice you need. Every paid pull exports as CSV plus a formatted Excel twin, under a per-buyer licence, and the minimum pull is $9.99.
BuiltWith prices are vendor-reported, checked November 2026, and plans change — confirm on their site. OpenData rates are the live per-row prices on our pricing page.
