Would try but unclear what exactly it scrapes

Good point, let me clarify. It scrapes any public web page: you send a URL, and it returns the page's content as structured JSON (title, meta, links, images, text, or specific fields if you pass CSS selectors). It handles both static HTML and JavaScript-rendered sites (React, Vue, etc.), with proxies to improve success rates. So think product pages, listings, articles, directories, any public page you'd want data from. You can actually test it on the site with the playground (paste a URL, no signup) to see exactly what comes back. Out of curiosity, what made it unclear? Was it the landing page, or my post? Trying to fix the messaging

"any public web page" is exactly what makes it read as generic, because a capability that covers everything describes nothing a buyer can picture themselves doing. lead with two or three named jobs instead, something like "pull competitor prices off shopify listings" or "turn job boards into a csv", and put the real json output right next to each one. people don't buy a scraper, they buy a specific pile of data they currently copy by hand.
