A template is a ready-made scraper for a popular site, built and maintained by Octoparse. The Template Gallery has 600+ templates, covering ecommerce, maps and local businesses, social media, real estate, jobs, and more. The steps and fields are already set up, so you only provide the inputs, such as keywords, URLs, or locations.

Search for templates by website or business category.

​
Why use it

  • There’s nothing to build. The steps, fields, and pagination are already set up. Enter your keywords, URLs, or locations, and run it.
  • Octoparse keeps it working. Octoparse builds and maintains every template, and most come with proxies built in. You don’t have to keep a scraper up to date or set up anti-blocking for popular sites yourself.
  • One template, wherever you work. Run the same template from its page, Octoparse Desktop, AI Assistant, MCP, the API, or the CLI.

​
Desktop templates and cloud templates

Each template’s page shows where it can run.

​
Find a template

  • By website: search the gallery for the site or brand name. One site often has several templates for different inputs and data. For example, one Twitter template takes a keyword and collects matching posts, while another takes a profile URL and collects that profile’s posts.
  • By business need: open a category, such as Lead Generation, to see which sites and templates cover it.
  • By describing the data: tell AI Assistant what you need, and it recommends matching templates.

Run a template

1

Enter the inputs

Follow the instructions on the template’s page and enter the inputs it asks for.
2

Test with a small run

Run it with one or two of your real inputs. Check that the run finishes, the output has every field you need, and the values match what’s on the site.
3

Run at full scale

Run it with all your inputs, or schedule it if you need the data regularly.
You can also run templates from your own code or AI agents:

MCP

Search and run templates that can run on Octoparse Cloud, from an AI client.

API

Find templates, get their input schemas, and run them.

CLI

Search templates and create template tasks from scripts.

​
Pricing

Every template can run on every plan, Free included, including templates that run on Octoparse Cloud. Each template’s page shows whether it charges per result, and its rate. See Credits and plans and pricing. The gallery also has templates for social media, search engines, directories, finance, and more.
