TheOrg Org Chart People Scraper Features

• Extracts org chart nodes with parent-child reporting edges — the reports_to field tells you who each person reports to.
• Returns team/department membership per person from the company's team structure.
• Collects company metadata alongside each person: industry, HQ location, website, slug.
• Derives seniority level (C-suite, VP, Director, Manager, Senior IC, IC) from job title automatically.
• Accepts a list of company URLs directly or discovers companies via TheOrg's sitemap (200k+ org profiles).
• Respects maxItems so you can run small targeted pulls without crawling the full index.

How TheOrg Org Chart People Scraper Works

1. Accepts a list of company URLs (startUrls) or crawls TheOrg's compressed sitemap index to discover company pages.
2. Fetches each company's org page and extracts the __NEXT_DATA__ SSR JSON payload — no JS rendering needed.
3. Parses initialNodes (org chart with parentId edges) and initialTeams (department membership) from the page data.
4. Emits one record per unique person, with company metadata attached to each row.

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://theorg.com/org/stripe" },
    { "url": "https://theorg.com/org/notion" }
  ],
  "maxItems": 100
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
startUrls	array	[{"url": "https://theorg.com/org/happilo"}]	List of TheOrg company page URLs to scrape. Leave empty to use sitemap discovery.
maxItems	integer	10	Maximum number of person records to collect. Set to 0 for unlimited (sitemap mode).

Sitemap mode: leave startUrls empty and the actor walks TheOrg's sitemap index (cdn.theorg.com/sitemap.xml) and walks the 400+ compressed company sitemaps to collect company URLs. Use maxItems to cap output.

FAQ

Does TheOrg require a login to view org charts?

No. TheOrg publishes org charts publicly — no account, no cookies. The data is server-rendered and available to any HTTP client with a valid browser user-agent.

How fresh is the data?

TheOrg data reflects whatever is on their site at crawl time. Org charts are user-contributed and vary in freshness by company. High-profile companies tend to be updated more frequently.

What is the reports_to field?

It contains the name of the person's direct manager, derived from the org chart's parent-child node structure. The field is empty for top-level executives (no parent node) or for people sourced from team pages where the org chart edge isn't available.

How does sitemap mode work?

When startUrls is empty, the actor fetches TheOrg's sitemap index and walks 400+ compressed company sitemaps to collect URLs, then crawls each org page. This mode can return data for 200k+ organizations — use maxItems to cap it.

What does person_role_level derive from?

The title string. Matches common patterns: "CEO", "Chief", "President" → C-suite; "VP", "Vice President" → VP; "Director" → Director; "Manager" → Manager; "Senior", "Lead", "Principal", "Staff", "Head of" → Senior IC; everything else → IC.

Why Use TheOrg Org Chart People Scraper?

• Cookieless source — TheOrg requires no authentication, unlike LinkedIn scrapers which all require active session cookies and fight aggressive anti-bot. You get the same org-chart buyer-intent data without the credential management problem.
• Reporting edges included — the reports_to field surfaces manager-report relationships that LinkedIn does not expose. Buying committee mapping gets considerably more useful when you know the chain of command.
• Affordable at scale — PPE pricing means you pay per record, not per run. Grabbing 500 decision-makers from 10 target accounts costs less than a cup of coffee.
