About Web Scraper

Web Scraper, produced by the Latvia-based company Web Graph SIA and available at webscraper.io, is a visual web data extraction platform with two connected products. The free Web Scraper browser extension creates a sitemap, which in this product means an editable tree of extraction selectors and navigation actions, not an ordinary search-engine sitemap.xml file. Users click elements on a page, specify where to follow links, and run a local browser scrape. Web Scraper Cloud then imports or synchronizes the same sitemap to run it on managed infrastructure with scheduling, proxy controls, monitoring, automatic retries and export integrations. This distinction matters for both purchasing and product comparisons: an indefinitely free browser extension is not the same entitlement as an indefinitely free cloud account. The extension is free and does not require an account for local building and testing, according to the vendor's current About page. It supports mainstream Chrome, Firefox and Edge browsers, allows point-and-click sitemap creation, an AI Sitemap Wizard and an Advanced Sitemap Builder, and can select text, attributes, links, images, tables and data from listing or detail pages. Workflows may traverse pagination, infinite scroll, load-more buttons, tabs, product variants and links to related detail pages. Users should test and preview fields on the real target rather than assume every complex website will work. Free applies to local extension use; Project/Professional cloud usage is URL-credit limited, and Scale pricing rises with parallel capacity and optional residential bandwidth.

Best for

Analysts and operations teams who want a visual selector-based scraper and need an upgrade path to scheduled cloud jobs, URL-credit budgeting and automated exports.

Web Scraper pros and cons

Pros

  • Free accountless browser extension enables visual sitemap construction and local tests.
  • Cloud uses the same sitemap definition for scheduling, API jobs, proxies and recurring data delivery.
  • Published URL-credit unit is per loaded page rather than per extracted row.
  • Separate Fast and Full drivers let teams choose static HTML versus JavaScript browser execution.
  • Scale provides unlimited URL credits with concurrency-based pricing for larger recurring workloads.

Cons

  • −Free browser extension does not include managed Cloud scheduling or API jobs.
  • −Cloud pricing shown as annual-billed monthly equivalents can be mistaken for month-to-month cost.
  • −Project and Professional have monthly URL-credit and concurrency caps.
  • −Residential proxy traffic on Scale is a separately billed add-on.
  • −Vendor explicitly excludes social-platform scraping such as LinkedIn and cannot guarantee protected-target compatibility.
