👋 Hey Everybody
We are thrilled to open-source Maxun today.
Maxun is an open-source no-code web data extraction platform. It lets you build custom robots for data scraping in just a few clicks.

🤔 But...why another web scraper? We have so many of them!
It’s surprising that in 2024, scraping data is still more complicated than actually using it. The last time I tried existing providers, I realized they mostly cater to technical users or big corporations with too much $ in the bank.
One provider didn’t even respond to my support request, which cost me valuable business days as I had no bandwidth to write scrapers.
💡 Then, I prototyped a small solution, open-sourced it, and discovered that quite a few people had similar experiences. So, I decided to build a scraper that:
- Requires ZERO coding skills
- Bypasses geolocation restrictions, captchas, and anti-bot measures
- Offers a simple API
- Gives me complete control over my data
- Adapts to website layout changes
- Just keeps getting better over time
We have a lot of exciting things coming up: Maxun Cloud, Extract Behind Login, Deep Data Extraction Workflows, Integrations +++
Our mission is simple: democratize access to information on the internet.
We are also live on Product Hunt! https://www.producthunt.com/posts/maxun
