How to scrape any website with your AI client

Connect Browserhub to your AI client once. After that, you just give it a URL and tell it what to find.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I scrape a website using my AI?

You provide a URL and a description of the data you want. Your AI uses the direct_scrape tool to read the page and extract exactly what you asked for. You'll get structured data ready for your next task.

The results you get

Where your data lands

The AI handles the heavy lifting of reading the page and organizing the results.

DATA

Structured information

The AI pulls specific text, numbers, or lists from the site. It turns messy HTML into clean data you can actually use.

TEXT

Clean page content

If you just need the meat of an article, the AI strips away the ads and navigation. You get the core text without the noise.

TABLES

Formatted data sets

The AI identifies tables on a page and converts them into usable formats. This makes it easy to move web data into a spreadsheet.

HUMAN

Manual verification

You decide if the extracted data is accurate. The AI does the reading, but you stay in control of the final output.

The workflow

What your AI does when a URL arrives.

The AI treats the website like a document it can read and interpret.

  1. Access the page

    The AI reaches out to the URL you provided to see what is there.

    direct_scrape
  2. Parse the content

    It scans the underlying code to find the text and elements you requested.

    direct_scrape
  3. Filter the noise

    The AI ignores the headers, footers, and ads to focus on your target data.

    direct_scrape
  4. Format the output

    The results are organized into the structure you asked for in your prompt.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI click buttons or fill out forms on a website?

    No. This tool is for reading and extracting data from a page, not for interacting with it or performing actions like clicking.

  • 02

    Does the AI need me to write code for a scraper?

    No. You just provide the URL and tell the AI what you want in plain English.

  • 03

    Can the AI scrape data behind a login wall?

    No. The tool can only access pages that are publicly available to a standard browser.

  • 04

    Will the AI save the data to a file for me?

    The AI provides the data in the chat. You are responsible for copying that data into your own files or spreadsheets.

  • 05

    Can the AI scrape images from a website?

    No. The tool is designed to extract text and structured data, not image files.
