ScrapeNinja.net is a set of tools and a simple API for web scraping tasks: it handles browsers; rotates proxies and leverages smart retry strategy to retrieve the content you need. Scrapers can be built online, in browser, using Online Sandbox!
Hey fellow hunters! My name is Anthony, and I am thrilled to finally launch my bootstrapped product, ScrapeNinja.net, on ProductHunt. If you have ever tried to extract useful data from a random website on a regular basis, you know it might be a tedious task. You need to figure out how to retrieve the website response, then parse the HTML and extract content from it, test everything thoroughly, and ensure it runs smoothly in production. Internet is full of online tutorials "how to do web scraping in Python" but in reality, websites are becoming increasingly difficult to scrape, especially if you want to extract the data continuously and you don't want to fix your web scraper every day, dealing with retries, proxies, and running headless browsers. This is where ScrapeNinja comes into play: it handles all the complexity of running headless browsers, HTML parsing, and proxy rotation, and provides a simple API to use it. As I built web scrapers and spent countless hours setting up new projects, repeating the same data extraction and proxy testing process, I built ScrapeNinja to make my life easier, and now ScrapeNinja is ready to help others to run web scrapers faster and with less headache.
I will sincerely appreciate your feedback on ScrapeNinja website design and, what's more important, your experience building web scrapers in ScrapeNinja Sandbox, and using its API. Cheers!
@pixeljetter Congratulations on the launch! For people who want to know some statistical data, ScrapeNinja.net will be a very useful product. I'm wondering if the underlying technology of this product is also based on Python web scraping?
@shiyuntang thanks Sharry! The tech stack of ScrapeNinja is Node.js and C++ (for the part of the network stack which is used for the high performance scraping engine which is launched on /scrape endpoint)
How's everything?
Wow wow wow! Swiss army knife :)
Great job on getting ScrapeNinja on Product Hunt!
I've only got a single question. What motivated you to create it?
Congratulations on launching ScrapeNinja.net, Anthony! This is an amazing product that will undoubtedly make web scraping much easier for many users.
As the founder of Ruum, a remote podcast recording app (https://ruum.cc/en/), I can see several ways in which ScrapeNinja could be beneficial for our product. One idea is to use it to scrape competitor websites to gather information on new podcasting features or updates in the industry.
We could also use ScrapeNinja to extract data from podcast directories or social media sites to identify potential podcasters who could benefit from using Ruum. We could also use ScrapeNinja to extract data from relevant websites to gather insights into our target audience's preferences and pain points, which could help us tailor our marketing efforts more effectively.. Additionally, we could use it to monitor other podcasting apps for mentions of our own product, to help us stay informed of what our users are saying about Ruum.
Overall, ScrapeNinja seems like a powerful tool that could provide us with valuable data to help us improve our product and better understand our target audience. Congratulations again on the launch, and thank you for creating such a useful product!
@shebentovsky thanks Andrey! Yeah scraping competitors and leads is a pretty popular sales strategy now. I will be happy to answer your questions if you have any! Good luck with Ruum, sounds like a great product indeed!
Congratulations on the launch! I have to agree, web scraping can be an awful task, and really hard for people who are not programmers. So ScrapeNinja seems like a game-changer! We at Adstra are fans of low-code and no-code solutions, they usually make your life so much easier. Good product!
@nick_harrision web scraping might be useful for most of companies, it's particularly useful in lead generation automation, we just need to brainstorm :)
Looks neat! Congrats on the launch!
If I may suggest something - could you perhaps make that terminal animation on the front page type faster? I almost gave up and closed the tab before the third example (which is the really neat one)
Using Scrap Ninja to monitor changes in my competitors website has made my job much easier. It's a helpful and user-friendly tool that I'm grateful to have discovered. I'm thrilled to see Scrap Ninja featured on Product Hunt and I hope that more people can benefit from its features.
Congratulations on the launch of ScrapeNinja, it looks like an amazing set of tools for web scraping! I'm excited to see how it makes the process easier and more efficient.
@pixeljetter Congratulations on the launch! ScrapeNinja is a versatile web scraping tool that includes a simple API, browser handling, proxy rotation, and smart retry strategies to extract the data you need. Boost your web scraping performance with ScrapeNinja!
ScrapeNinja.net is a great tool for web scraping tasks. It handles browsers; rotates proxies, and leverages smart retry strategies to retrieve the content you need.
It's like a Swiss army knife for web scraping - it handles browsers, rotates proxies, and has a smart retry strategy to ensure you get the content you need. And the fact that you can build scrapers online using the Online Sandbox is incredibly convenient. Plus, the fact that it offers free options is a huge plus.
