Scraping is 50% dealing with ever-changing HTML files and 50% massaging data into a useable format. ScrapingBee’s incredible AI feature can do both much better than I ever could. Now I can spend 100% of my time on what matters most; my business.

ScrapingBee helps us to retrieve information from sites that use very sophisticated mechanism to block unwanted traffic, we were struggling with those sites for some time now and I'm very glad that we found ScrapingBee.

Great SaaS tool for legitimate scraping and data extraction. ScrapingBee makes it easy to automatically pull down data from the sites that publish periodic data in a human-readable format.

Fantastic service: works flawlessly, best support I've experienced. It just works: and its parsing meta-language is wonderfully powerful. Most importantly, the support I've received has been superlative.

Excellent service, glad we made the switch! We could always dedicate resources and build our own systems for everything... or we could simply call the scrapingBee API and focus on the data. It makes our work so much easier.
