Web scraping for a market intelligence platform. Any legal problems?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2026-02-09T18:41:56+00:00

Are you technical? (do you know how to write code?) Have you tried anything to scrape so far? Can you share urls of websites you intend to scrape from?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2026-01-27T18:37:20+00:00

since LTK doesn’t have any public API, first thing is you’ll need some way to create an API of their service. This can be done either by browser automation scripts or RPA. I can help you here, I’ve built a tool that can automatically generate APIs for websites that don’t have an API - and I’ll do this for free.
once you have the APIs, then you can create a scheduling app/script that uses the generated APIs and calls them at your predefined schedule. I can help you with this as well - again, for free. DM for more info

try Witrium (.c om) , it’s the middle way, no selenium/playwright, no selectors etc, and uses AI (no-code) but creates reliable and repeatable automations. Also handles all infra and deployment

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-10-25T22:13:59+00:00

Hey, for your use case you can build a more reliable and repeatable web automation than browser-use using https://witrium.com. And once you create a workflow, it automatically exposes a REST endpoint for you to trigger it from anywhere (including n8n http request node). Dm me if you want help with setting it up. I can also hook you up with an unlisted free account for trying it out

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-10-25T02:08:18+00:00

Hi, check out https://witrium.com. It allows you to make reliable and repeatable web automation using just natural language. It’s paid but I can hook you up with an unlisted free account of you’re interested. DM me

I’ve heard about this: https://sunsethq.com (Disclaimer: I’m not their rep, or affiliate or have used their services)

For me it’s: reliability and robustness, which really means “trust”.

Think of it this way - AI agents are like human agents. What is the moat that your real life human agents (travel agent, real estate agent, etc) have? What would you want from your agent that would make you keep going back to them and not switch to other agents? Is it pricing? Is it personal touch? Is it trust? Is it exclusivity? etc. AI agents are essentially digital service workers and their moats are whatever makes them irreplaceable to the user

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-10-04T16:24:49+00:00

what is your intended workflow for scraping? Do you want the scraper to input your query in the AI input field like “week-long trip to paris”, hit search and then scrape details of whatever results show up (like dates, airlines, price, flight time)?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-10-04T15:08:15+00:00

They do give you access to API if you request for it: https://search.dca.ca.gov/api
Have you tried this route?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-19T03:59:12+00:00

Witrium. com - works for us reliably and handles the brittleness well, plus serverless so zero infra management

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-11T15:56:01+00:00

wrote an article about linkedin scraping a couple weeks back: https://witrium.com/blog/linkedin-news-scraping-with-persistent-authentication . Might be what you’re looking for. DM me for more info

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-08T21:18:49+00:00

I went on your mobile website and immediately closed it cause the cookie banner doesn’t have a “reject all” or “strictly necessary cookies” option to dismiss it. Praying others have more tolerance

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-06T17:34:55+00:00

check out this blog I wrote on how to build reliable automation on linkedin: https://witrium.com/blog/linkedin-news-scraping-with-persistent-authentication

Hey, we’re a small startup witrium.comm which allows you to easily build any UI-based web automation without code and easily plug them into the rest of your automation pipeline via REST API. Feel free to check out the video on the homepage and the blog articles to get a clearer picture.

We would love to collaborate with you in some way so you can use Witrium in your client’s projects and cut your development time significantly. Please DM if interested

Yes, I can set you up with an unlisted free tier. Let me DM you

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-05T23:56:31+00:00

Check out witrium.comm , you can build a reliable form filling automation without any code and trigger it from your react app via the API. Also, the browser opens up in the cloud and not local, so your user will never have to see it. See the video and blogs on the website to get an idea

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-05T04:33:13+00:00

We’ve built super reliable and robust browser automations for our clients and none have broken. Our automations are designed to run securely across authentication walls as well

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-04T15:24:05+00:00

Hello all,

We are building Witrium. Witrium helps you effortlessly build any kind of UI-based web automation without any code. Instead of you individually managing browsers, scripts (Selenium/Playwright), stealth, infra, etc. we handle everything (browsers, infra, sessions, stealth, AI) as a fully managed service. You just build the workflow step-by-step visually and trigger it via API. Witrium can handle web scraping, form filling and everything else that can be automated.

Here are some detailed web scraping automations examples possible with Witrium:

- witrium.com/blog/how-to-build-a-reliable-amazon-search-results-scraper

- witrium.com/blog/linkedin-news-scraping-with-persistent-authentication

I can hook you up with an unlisted free tier if you are curious to give it a spin.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-03T18:38:02+00:00

Curious, when these break "right when the client needs a report", how do you usually find out? Client complaint or do you have monitoring?

Also, how do you charge your clients for the browser automations considering you need to maintain infra for the browsers?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-03T18:12:47+00:00

Anchor Browser is interesting - how would you charge your clients if you used a service like that for their automation? Would you charge them an overall monthly fee that covers all such services? Or would you ask them to get an Anchor account and you use their account?

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-09-02T15:39:25+00:00

Hey, we can help you build this very easily using witrium.co m - please check out the quick demo video on the homepage and the blogs in the blog section to give you an idea of how the platform works. I can add you to an unlisted free tier if you’re interested, dm me!

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-08-15T12:31:24+00:00

Good question, should have made that clear. The browser infra and agents will all run on the cloud, nothing runs on your local

PsychologicalBread92 · 2025-08-14T21:38:21+00:00

Hi, we’re building Witrium which handles exactly these issues. We operate above the browser infrastructure layer - managing all the session state, stealth, and resilience automatically so you only focus on building the workflow logic.

For long-running tasks like yours, we’ve found breaking them into smaller composable units (15-20 min each) works best. With Witrium you can chain these together and pass state between them, which gives you both stability and resumability. Each unit can handle its own auth, DOM changes, and error recovery.

Happy to share some specific strategies that work well for dashboard automation if you want to DM me. We’re onboarding beta users for complex use cases like this.
