What is
Web Scraper
Web Scraper is a web data extraction tool that starts with a browser extension for building scrapers visually and extends to Web Scraper Cloud, a managed platform for running them at scale. Scrapers are saved as sitemaps that can be scheduled, run through an API, and handle proxies, JavaScript pages and anti-bot systems. GTM teams use it to extract company and contact data from directories, enrich lead lists and track competitor products and listings.
