I Built an AI That Scrapes Any Website in Plain English

Ever wished you could just tell a scraper what you want instead of writing CSS selectors and XPath expressions?

I built one. It's called AI Data Scraper β€” and it's live at sec.92888888.xyz/ai-scraper/

What it does

You type what you want in natural language, like:

"Get all the product names and prices from this page"

"Find the email addresses and social links on every page of this site"

"Extract the table data from this Wikipedia article"

And it just... does it. No configuration, no code, no regex hell.

Why I built it

Web scraping should not require a degree in reverse engineering. Most tools force you to study page structures, figure out XPath, and handle edge cases manually. I wanted something that understands what you're asking for.

How it works

The AI parses your natural language request, understands the page structure, and intelligently extracts the data you need. It handles pagination, dynamic content, and complex nested layouts automatically.

Try it

πŸ‘‰ sec.92888888.xyz/ai-scraper/ β€” No signup required. Just paste a URL and describe what you want.

Built with Python, Playwright, and a whole lot of prompt engineering.
