Summary

Instant Data Scraper is an automated data extraction tool for any website. It uses AI to predict which data is most relevant on a HTML page and allows saving it to Excel or CSV file (XLS, XLSX, CSV).

Community Support group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/instantdata/

This tool does not require website specific scripts, instead it uses heuristic AI analysis of HTML structure to detect data for extraction. If the prediction is not satisfactory,  it lets the user customize the selections for greater accuracy. This type of scraping technology is much more convenient, because it does not require large user created libraries of scraping scripts,  which often become filled with outdated and redundant versions. This means that our scraping method works just as well with small and lesser known websites, as it does with global giants like Amazon. Also, our users do not need to have any coding, json or xml skills!

Instant Data Scraper FEATURES:
* Detecting data for extraction with AI.
* Detecting when dynamic data has loaded.
* Delay and maximum wait time customization for desired crawling speed
* Support for pagination on websites.
* Automatic navigation to next page via buttons or links.
* Support for infinite scrolling.
* Extracted data preview with copy and paste support.
* Data export to Excel spreadsheet or CSV file.

Safety

Risk impact

Instant Data Scraper requires a number of risky permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this extension. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install Instant Data Scraper if you trust the publisher.

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypass your security settings, and access your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Risk likelihood

Instant Data Scraper has earned a good reputation and can be trusted.

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension, especially ones with higher risk impact and/or higher risk likelihood.
