Today marks a major milestone for both Oxylabs and the web scraping industry: the launch of our unified Web Scraper API, now enhanced with the OxyCopilot feature. 

Along with these innovations, we’re reducing the cost of Web Scraper API plans by an average of 30%, making this powerful tool more accessible than ever. These updates are set to elevate your data collection workflows, making them more efficient, scalable, and user-friendly—all at a lower cost.

Web Scraper API: From URLs to high-quality data with one API call

Our unified Web Scraper API, previously represented by three distinct products, is now an all-in-one web data collection platform covering every web scraping stage. From crawling URLs to delivering high-quality, structured data directly to your preferred cloud storage, the Web Scraper API ensures precision and reliability whether you're extracting data from search engines, e-commerce sites, or complex websites. With AI-driven features, it offers unparalleled accuracy and consistency.

All-in-one platform with maintenance-free infrastructure

Our platform offers a comprehensive suite of expertly crafted scrapers and parsers designed to extract data from even the most complex websites. Key features like the Web Crawler, Scheduler, Custom Parser, Headless Browser, and our latest addition, OxyCopilot, ensure efficient and accurate scraping.

We take care of the scrapers, parsers, and browsers for you while automated ML-driven proxy rotation, AI-powered fingerprinting, and CAPTCHA bypass enable continuous and effortless data collection. This significantly reduces development time and costs, ensuring seamless and reliable performance.

Tailored and ready-to-use data

With Web Scraper API, you can utilize dedicated parsers tailored for popular sites (like Google, Amazon, Walmart, and more) or create custom parsing logic to obtain structured data. This lets you focus on analysis rather than data parsing, streamlining workflows and minimizing manual work.

Localized, real-time access and advanced control

Our platform offers real-time access to localized data through a global proxy network spanning 195 countries, ensuring relevance and accuracy. More advanced users can leverage custom headers, cookies, and session functionality to fine-tune the control of their scraping processes.

Flexible, scalable, and cost-efficient

You can easily scale your scraping tasks with synchronous and asynchronous integration options and direct results delivery to AWS or GCS. Plus, our pay-for-results model ensures you only pay for successfully delivered data, maximizing the value of your investment.

Comprehensive support and learning resources

Get access to a wealth of resources, including tutorials, documentation, and round-the-clock support, ensuring your team is fully equipped and backed by our experts whenever needed.

OxyCopilot: AI-powered assistant 

Complementing the Web Scraper API is OxyCopilot, the first AI-powered assistant specifically designed to simplify web scraping. It is the culmination of years of innovation in AI, machine learning, and data acquisition, built on over a decade of Oxylabs' experience in ethical web data collection. Backed by NASA, Google, ULC, and MIT expertise, OxyCopilot empowers users with minimal coding knowledge to easily build efficient scraping pipelines.

With OxyCopilot, you can generate code for requests and parsing instructions without manual coding. Simply input your prompt into the Scraper API Playground, accessible via the Oxylabs dashboard, and OxyCopilot will provide you with ready-to-use code in seconds.

Instant data extraction with natural language prompts

Provide target URLs and a plain English description of your needs, and OxyCopilot will inspect page structures, generate parsing templates, and handle CSS and XPath selectors. It manages even the most complex data, including nested or listed information, eliminating the need for manual coding and allowing you to focus on results.

Scalable and integrated with Oxylabs infrastructure

Fully integrated with Oxylabs’ infrastructure, OxyCopilot helps you scale effortlessly to meet your data extraction needs, ensuring efficient, reliable performance for projects of any size.

User-friendly and cost-efficient

OxyCopilot is accessible via the Scraper API Playground, providing an intuitive interface where you can input prompts, refine your requests, and receive scraping code instantly. By generating efficient, reusable parsing code, OxyCopilot helps reduce operational costs and ensures seamless integration with your workflows.

OxyCopilot is free to all registered dashboard users, making it easier to speed up your data collection processes.
