Overview
IPOScoop Calendar Scraper
Scrape upcoming IPO data from the IPOScoop Calendar, tracking every new listing, price range, and expected date. Each record includes the company name, symbol, offer price, shares, and IPO rating. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
IPOScoop publishes a forward-looking IPO calendar that many investors check daily, but there is no official API and manual tracking is slow. This Actor reads the public calendar directly and returns each upcoming IPO as a structured row, so you can feed the data into your own pipeline or spreadsheet without copy-pasting.
| Who uses it | What they scrape IPOScoop for |
|---|---|
| Retail investors | Build a personal watchlist of upcoming IPOs with price ranges and ratings. |
| Financial analysts | Monitor the IPO pipeline and spot trends in offering sizes or sector activity. |
| Fintech developers | Pipe structured IPO calendar data into a dashboard, newsletter, or trading bot. |
| Journalists | Track which companies are filing to go public and when they expect to price. |

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting fewer results than my maxItems setting?
The Actor can only return entries that are currently listed on the IPOScoop Calendar. If the visible calendar has fewer IPOs than your limit, you will receive all available entries. Check the IPOScoop site directly to confirm the current count.
The run finished but some fields are empty.
IPOScoop may not have published every detail for every upcoming IPO. Fields like the symbol or price range can be blank when the company has not yet disclosed them. This reflects the source data, not a scraping error.
I got an error or timeout during the run.
The IPOScoop site may have been temporarily slow or unreachable. Retry the run after a few minutes. If the problem persists, increase the Actor's timeout setting in the run options.
The rating column shows a value I do not understand.
The rating is IPOScoop's proprietary score. Refer to the IPOScoop website for their current rating methodology and scale explanation.
