Browse AI simplifies web data extraction without coding, allowing you to focus on using data, not finding it.

Whether you're a technical expert managing data operations or a business user who needs reliable data access, understanding the difference between web crawling and web scraping will help you choose the right solution for your needs.

Web crawling, also known as spidering, systematically explores and indexes the web. This process primarily serves search engines and web archives by navigating through websites and following links to discover and index new pages. Web crawlers create comprehensive maps of website structures and content, enabling search engines to maintain up-to-date indexes of the internet.

Web scraping focuses on targeted data extraction from specific web pages. Unlike crawling's broad exploration, scraping identifies and collects particular information such as product details, pricing information, or market research data. This precise approach transforms web content into structured, analyzable data that drives business decisions and insights.

Browse AI's approach to web scraping

Browse AI specializes in web scraping, providing a no-code solution for extracting specific data from target websites. Our platform helps technical teams centralize data operations while enabling business users to access the data they need without technical complexity.

Our approach delivers several key advantages:

Train robots through our intuitive interface by simply showing them which data to extract. This makes data extraction accessible to both technical and non-technical users.

Set up automatic monitoring for specific data points, receiving alerts when important information changes. This ensures you always have the most current market intelligence and competitive insights.

Our AI-powered engine maintains accurate extraction even when websites update their structure, while our deep scraping capabilities enable comprehensive data collection across multiple pages.

Websites use different structures to present their data, which is why Browse AI creates specialized robots for each site. While this means training separate robots for different websites, our intuitive interface makes the process quick and straightforward. Once trained, robots can be reused across pages with identical structures, streamlining your data extraction workflow.

Your robot's specialized training ensures consistent, accurate data extraction tailored to each website's unique characteristics. This approach delivers more reliable results than attempting to use a one-size-fits-all solution across different web structures.
