What is AnyPicker?
AnyPicker provides a visual approach to web scraping, simplifying data extraction from websites. It functions as a lightweight Chrome extension, allowing users to define scraping rules by directly clicking on the elements they wish to capture on a webpage. This eliminates the need for programming knowledge or the installation of separate desktop software.
The tool prioritizes user privacy by processing all scraped data locally on the user's computer. It can handle password-protected websites; users simply need to log in via their browser before initiating the scrape, without compromising their credentials. AnyPicker supports concurrent scraping of multiple pages, incorporates technology to bypass common anti-scraping measures, and offers a real-time preview of the extracted data. Export options include CSV and integration with Google Sheets, with additional formats like XLSX and TSV available on paid plans.
