I built a tool that lets you query websites using SQL

Have you ever wondered: Why can't I query a web page like I can query a DB? That question led me to start building https://SiteRows.com

The idea is to expose web content as queryable datasets, so you can do things like:

URL: https://wikipedia.org
SQL: select * from @a where text like '%English%'
RESULT: A list of all links whose text contains "English"

There is a front-end with a SQL-like object explorer, and there is an API to set up automation. Please feel free to visit SiteRows and let me know what you think.
