Why

Web scraping is a common technique used to extract data from websites for various purposes such as market research, price monitoring, and content aggregation. However, setting up and maintaining web scraping tools can be complex and time-consuming, especially for users without programming skills. A Web Scraper as a Service platform would simplify the process by providing automated tools and APIs to extract, transform, and clean web data without the need for coding. Features like cookie banner removal, scheduled scraping, data visualization, and data monitoring would enhance the usability and value of the platform for users with diverse data needs.
