ScrapeMate Beta

Scraping assistant tool. Editing and maintaining lists of CSS/XPath selectors across webpages. Element picker (from SelectorGadget). Presets manager. Active preset JSON view/edit. JavaScript toggling per tab.

ScrapeMate Beta is a powerful Chrome extension designed to assist web developers and scraping professionals in managing CSS and XPath selectors across webpages efficiently. It features an element picker adapted from SelectorGadget for quick selection, a preset manager to maintain and switch between multiple JSON-formatted selector lists, and supports advanced CSS pseudo-elements like ::text and ::attr() for precise data extraction.

With ScrapeMate Beta, users can preview selected data in real-time, toggle JavaScript execution on a per-tab basis, and effortlessly edit presets — making it ideal for integration with scraping frameworks such as Scrapy. The extension streamlines the process of creating and testing selectors, speeding up web scraping and website testing workflows. Additional features are planned to enhance usability further.

Extension safety

Risk impact
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, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

ScrapeMate Beta requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
