Comparis Data Parser & API
Comparis CarFinder is Switzerland’s car metasearch — it aggregates around 175K listings from the major Swiss portals and acts as a fair-value price oracle — and Carapis extracts its consolidated feed through one REST API. As an aggregator with a price-rating layer, Comparis offers a single cross-portal view of the Swiss market plus fair-value signals, and Carapis serves it without you stitching together sources yourself.

What is Comparis?
Comparis is a Swiss comparison platform; its CarFinder service is a vehicle metasearch that aggregates listings from the major Swiss car portals into one search. It indexes around 175K cars and adds a fair-value price assessment, helping buyers judge whether a listing is well-priced. This makes it both a cross-portal index of Swiss inventory and a derived price-rating source.
Market Position
Comparis CarFinder aggregates ~175K listings from Switzerland’s main car portals (including AutoScout24.ch) and functions as a fair-value price oracle for the Swiss market. Its value for data buyers is twofold: a single cross-portal view of Swiss inventory, and a derived price-rating layer that is itself a resellable signal on top of the raw listings.
Data Fields Available
Carapis extracts a structured record from each Comparis CarFinder result:
- Vehicle identity — make, model, model year
- Specification — fuel type, transmission
- Condition — mileage
- Pricing — listed price plus fair-value rating (Comparis’s price-position signal)
- Listing context — source portal, location, photos
The fair-value rating and source-portal attribution are what make Comparis distinctive: it tells you both where a car is listed and how its price compares to the Swiss market.
