Unlock the power of Smart AI Web Scraper! Efficiently scrape dynamic content, simulate browser behavior, and extract targeted data without writing a single line of code.

🚀 Overview

The Smart AI Web Scraper is an intelligent, next-generation automation tool powered by Stagehand and built for seamless AI data extraction. Instead of relying on rigid CSS selectors or complex scripts, this no-code web scraper uses natural language processing (powered by large language models / LLMs) to navigate web pages, perform actions, and extract precisely what you need into structured JSON formats.

Whether you're looking to scrape dynamic content built with React/Vue, or you need to simulate browser behavior to bypass simple anti-bot measures, this AI web scraper handles it all efficiently.

✨ Features

• Natural Language Actions: Command the browser using plain English. E.g., "Click the 'Load More' button" or "Scroll to the bottom of the page".
• Intelligent Data Extraction: Define the fields you want to extract (e.g., "Product Price", "Article Author"), and the underlying AI will locate and format the data.
• Dynamic Content Handling: Render and interact with the most complex, JavaScript-heavy single-page applications with ease, ensuring nothing is missed.
• Structured JSON Output: Perfect for automation pipelines, database ingestion, or integrating with your existing APIs.

🛠️ How it Works

This LLM scraper integrates cutting-edge AI with reliable, self-healing browser automation. Instead of hardcoded rules, the AI "sees" the page and navigates like a human, ensuring high accuracy and stability.

Forget constantly breaking scrapers due to minor UI updates. Our Smart AI Web Scraper adapts to visual and structural changes dynamically, ensuring your automation workflows remain uninterrupted.

📦 Output Format

The actor outputs clean, validated JSON data directly into your Apify dataset. Each run generates structured results that perfectly match your requested fields.

⚡ Standby Mode (Real-time HTTP API)

This Actor supports Standby Mode, which allows it to run continuously as an HTTP server. This eliminates the container startup time, allowing you to extract data in real-time via REST API requests.

How to use Standby Mode

1. Deploy the Actor to the Apify Platform.
2. In the Apify Console, go to the Actor's Settings and ensure Standby mode is enabled (it should be by default).
3. Start the Actor in Standby mode.
4. Send an HTTP POST request to the Standby URL provided in the Apify Console.

Example Request

curl-X POST https://<STANDBY_URL>\
-H"Content-Type: application/json"\
-d'{
 "startUrl": "https://example.com",
 "actions": [
 {
 "action": "click the accept cookies button",
 "waitBeforeAction": 1,
 "waitAfterAction": 2
 }
 ],
 "fields": [
 {
 "fieldName": "title",
 "fieldDescription": "The main heading of the page",
 "dataType": "string"
 }
 ],
 "proxyConfiguration": {
 "useApifyProxy": true
 }
 }'

Example Response

{
"title":"Example Domain"
}

The response will be the exact structured JSON data extracted by the AI, returned instantly in the HTTP response body.
