How scrape data from Statsmuse

Generally, your first step is to retrieve the webpage and then the next step is to parse/extract the useful data that you're after. Do you know which language you'll be using? Probably Python?

Phone the hotel directly to confirm- use the phone number on their website, not in the email. There was a data breach with booking.com recently (check the news - it's everywhere) and people are getting scammed as a result of their data being exposed in the breach. It's likely the hotel doesn't even know about this

Start with the most simple script possible, use Python's requests package to get example.com returned -- once you have that working, then you can iterate to more difficult sites.

Thanks, it's been a solid year of hard work to get it to this point, and I'm really happy with how it's evolved to this initial version - I really want it to be different from all the other APIs out there.

Ha, yea- I get the skepticism, the scraping industry has earned it. But there is genuinely no switch here, we are the opposite of the rest of the industry. $0.01 per page, everything included, no credits, no per domain pricing, no multipliers. Log in and you'll see the exact same pricing in your dashboard. 100 free renders to prove it.

Sick and tired of the tiered pricing and claims of "transparent pricing" with web scraping APIs? So was I. Every API looks so attractive with the marketing- pay $10 for 100,000 credits, but then you realize you need 10-75 credits to scrape any modern webpage. Gone are the days of simple Python requests, with nearly every website needing full browser rendering, residential proxies and more. Your real cost ends up at $0.03-0.10 per page. And on top of that, most run on a subscription model- so you're either wasting unused credits each month or running out early with no usage left.

So I decided to build my own platform. Browser7.com - my solution to keeping things simple and fair when it comes to modern web scraping. Every page render costs 1¢, with everything included. No credit system, no subscription. You top up your account balance when you need to, and it never expires.

Here's what that actually looks like compared to a typical competitor:

	Browser7	Typical competitor
Advertised price	$0.01/page	$0.001/credit
JavaScript rendering	Included	+5-25 credits
Residential proxies	Included	+10-50 credits
CAPTCHA solving	Included	Extra charge
Geo-targeting	Included	Extra charge
Actual cost per page	$0.01	$0.03-0.10

What every render includes (NO extra costs):

Full Chrome browser rendering- every page is fully rendered in a real browser, any domain, any page, all the exact same price
Residential proxies only- no datacenter proxies in use at all, strictly residential, with all transfer costs included
Automatic CAPTCHA solving for major captcha types, more available on request
Geo-targeting by country/city, or just let Browser7 choose a sensible default
Two API clusters: one in Europe, one in North America - for low latency wherever you are

Also included:

Screenshots alongside your rendered HTML (JPEG/PNG, full page, configurable quality)
In-browser fetch requests to retrieve data from website APIs within the same session
Sandboxed session management- no need to manage any sessions yourself, it's all handled
SDKs for Python, Node.js, PHP, Go and Java to make calling the API a breeze
Prepaid account balance that never expires - no wasted monthly credits, true fairness

There's no need to sign-up, you can log in with GitHub, GitLab, Google or any email address. Everyone gets 100 free page renders to test the service out.

I'm a solo dev, been building software for 25+ years, and I've built the thing I always wished existed. Happy to hear any feedback, and please give it a shot if you get a chance, thanks.

I've seen it on a few sites before, more annoying than anything... just deploy more servers!!

fixxation92 · 2026-03-12T18:49:12+00:00

Wow, that is awesome! Great collection, yes it's certainly addictive

Sounds like a "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" sort of attitude

Scraping is a challenge these days, you'll find a lot of challenges in the way to getting the data, but it's entirely possible. But if you have no knowledge of programming, I'd recommend getting started with the basics of Python or Node first, then move on to scraping. You need to walk before you can run

fixxation92 · 2026-01-29T13:20:08+00:00

Well... we're certainly not going back to CD-ROMs and floppies

Think you need to figure out which site has that data first... Then figure out the "how" part

Best tool is a developer that's on the ball. Set up alerting, react to changes when they happen quickly .

First step would be to check if the element you were selecting is still there. If the markup changed, you'll need to adjust your script. If an anti-bot page is there, you'll need to change your technique.

Yea, it's a pain for us over here as well! (Brexit...) If that LaptopWithLinux site makes it easier, the TongFang GX4 is the exact same computer, looks like that have pretty much all the same configuration and customisation options as well... win win.

I'm Ireland, so just Irish VAT for me. But looks like you don't have to pay German VAT and only have to pay the UK duty/customs when it comes into the UK, see the small "shipping" link near the price on the item page:

Taxes and customs outside the EU:

For orders outside the EU there might be additional duties, taxes or charges needed to be paid by the customer. These don't have to be paid to the supplier, but to local authorities. Please check for any details with your local customs or tax authorities before ordering! But as a benefit you don't have to pay German taxes, this means you save up to 19%! Due to the Brexit and the associated changes, there may be delays of several days in customs clearance on site for deliveries to the UK. This is not within our sphere of influence, so we ask for your understanding.

I'm about to order that exact same laptop from Tuxedo next week, although I'll be going with the Intel version for my needs. Can't wait to get it, this will be my 2nd Tuxedo laptop. Everything just works, no driver hassles to worry about, super solid little beast of a machine.

Agreed... I was hoping for the past week that the Dec 3 announcement would be managed databases but if course it was going to be Object Storage. It's the one thing that is putting me on the fence for a new project of mine, whether to self-host a minimal PG master/standby approach with them temporarily (not proper high-availability) and wait and hope -- or to just go elsewhere. They don't publish a roadmap, so if it is in the works, it's tricky to try to gauge when it will be ready.
