Three teams. One API.

Whoever in your org needs live web data — there's a pattern that fits how they already work.

AI Builders

Plug live, structured web data into Claude, GPT, or your own agent loop. Stop shipping hallucinations — every answer cites a real row.

Data Teams

Stream straight into Snowflake, BigQuery or your warehouse via Airbyte, dbt, or Airflow. Retire the in-house scrapers and the 3am pages.

Backend Engineers

Drop live web data into your SaaS product, internal tools, or browser extension. One REST shape any HTTPS-capable backend can hit.

From raw web to business outcome.

Real workflows running in production.

Track 12,000 competitor SKUs every hour

A consumer-electronics retailer pulls live pricing & stock signals across Amazon, Best Buy, B&H and Newegg — feeds them into a margin engine that re-prices their own catalog within 90 minutes.

Cost vs in-house~ 1/18 of headcount

Ground every AI answer in live web data

A Series-A research-assistant startup calls the API from inside their agent loop — Claude / GPT pick a template, the API runs it, fresh structured data lands back into the chat. No more hallucinated specs or stale prices.

Replace 3 brittle scrapers with one API call

A fintech data team retired their Selenium / Playwright fleet and now ships LinkedIn, Glassdoor and Crunchbase signals into Snowflake via Airbyte + the Octoparse API — same dashboards, zero on-call pages for broken selectors.

Engineering hours saved~ 44 hrs / month

The web-data engine teams keep coming back to.

Six reasons our customers pick Octoparse — and stay.

Global coverage out of the box

200+ ready-to-run templates — Amazon, LinkedIn, Google Maps, YouTube, Yelp, HN, Reddit, and more. One REST shape, the same canonical fields, no XPath or selector maintenance.

8 years of scraping infrastructure

Browser pool, proxy rotation, anti-bot, pagination, structured export — battle-tested since 2018.

Your data. Your rules.

Your runs, your bytes. We don't resell, redistribute, or train on the data we extract for you. Set a retention window, hit delete, gone. Every run gets a trace_id you can audit or replay.

Structured output, every format

JSON, JSONL, CSV, XLSX, XML — same canonical shape. Stream straight into Snowflake via Airbyte, dbt, Airflow, or your own ETL.

Built for AI from day one

Plays native with Claude, GPT, Cursor, Cline, Dify. JSONL streaming means your agent can plan the next step before the run finishes.

Best value in the category

Free trial — no credit card. Transparent metered pricing after. Teams report replacing in-house scraping stacks at 1/18 the cost of headcount.

Trusted by the teams behind their numbers.
