Web-pages rendered in a real browser. Really.
The API is based on a p2p network of real, residential browsers. So full JS support with the V8 Chrome engine is the norm, as well as residential IP addresses.
unparalleled speed + PARALLEL EXECUTIONS ;)
Need to scale your scraping? Need to do it fast?
The API is fast out-of-the-box. But you can also run up to 70 parallel concurrent threads to 70X your scraping speed.You might want to use Batch Executions too, which are coming soon.
Coming soon:
batch executions + Multi depth + SELENIUM
Scale at another level
With Batch Executions, you'll be able to scrape 1000 pages in around 30 seconds. You can then run up to 5 threads of Batch Executions and get 5000 scrapes in 30 seconds.That's 1 million requests in 100 minutes.
Multi-depth crawling will enable you to recursively scrape linked content up to a certain depth (useful for doc websites)
With the selenium integration, you can just swap your driver and keep running your automations like before, but at scale and without being worried about getting blocked or rate-limited.
