Invisible scraping, visible results

Stealth proxies, JavaScript scenarios, structured extraction, and full-page screenshots. ScrapingBee gives your AI agent undetectable access to any web page's content.

ScrapingBee

Use Cases

Unblockable data access scenarios

See how AI agents combine ScrapingBee's stealth infrastructure with conversational intelligence to extract data from even the most aggressively protected websites.

Competitor Monitoring Behind Bot Shields

Your product team asks the agent to check a competitor's feature page that blocks scrapers aggressively. The agent activates ScrapingBee's stealth proxy with premium residential IPs, renders the JavaScript, and applies extraction rules for feature names and descriptions. Clean competitive data from a page that returns 403s to everyone else.

Visual QA with Automated Screenshots

A QA engineer needs screenshots of your web app across mobile and desktop viewports. The agent sends requests to ScrapingBee with different device emulations, captures full-page screenshots of each version, and delivers them in the conversation. Visual regression testing without browser DevTools or manual device switching.

Form-Driven Data Extraction

An analyst needs pricing data from a site that requires filling out a form before showing rates. The agent defines a ScrapingBee JavaScript scenario that enters search parameters, submits the form, waits for results, then extracts the pricing table. Multi-step web interactions automated through a single chat request.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes ScrapingBee's stealth proxy different from regular proxy rotation?

Regular proxies only change IP addresses. ScrapingBee's stealth mode combines residential IPs with browser fingerprint masking, header manipulation, and behavioral patterns that mimic real human browsing. Sites with advanced detection like DataDome or PerimeterX see requests that look identical to genuine Chrome browser sessions.

Can the agent define extraction rules to pull specific data fields?

Yes. ScrapingBee supports extraction rules using CSS selectors and XPath. The agent passes a JSON object mapping field names to selectors, like mapping 'price' to 'css:.product-price'. ScrapingBee returns a clean JSON object with exactly those fields, eliminating the need to parse raw HTML afterward.

How does JavaScript scenario execution work?

The agent passes a JSON scenario definition to ScrapingBee that describes browser actions in sequence: click a button, wait for a selector, fill an input field, scroll down, then capture. ScrapingBee executes these actions in a real Chrome browser instance before returning the final page state. Multi-step interactions automated in one request.

Does Tars store the HTML content or screenshots fetched through ScrapingBee?

No. All content is fetched in real-time and used only to generate the agent's response in the active conversation. HTML, screenshots, and extracted data are not persisted in any database. Each scraping request is stateless and results are discarded after the response is delivered.

Can the agent block ads and tracking scripts to speed up scraping?

Yes. ScrapingBee offers a block_ads parameter that strips advertising scripts and tracking code before rendering. You can also specify resource types to block, like images, stylesheets, and fonts. Blocking unnecessary resources reduces page load time and credit consumption significantly.

What is the difference between premium proxy and stealth proxy modes?

Premium proxy uses high-quality residential IPs for better success rates compared to datacenter proxies. Stealth proxy goes further by adding advanced fingerprint masking and behavioral mimicking to appear completely undetectable. Use premium for most sites and stealth for those with the most aggressive anti-bot systems.

How does ScrapingBee compare to Scrapfly for protected sites?

Both handle anti-bot bypass effectively. ScrapingBee excels with its stealth proxy mode and JavaScript scenario execution for complex multi-step flows. Scrapfly offers extraction rules with CSS, JMESPath, and JSONPath options. The right choice depends on whether you need more interaction automation or extraction flexibility.

Can the agent maintain session state across multiple scraping requests?

Yes. ScrapingBee supports session IDs through its proxy mode. The agent assigns a session identifier, and ScrapingBee maintains the same IP address across requests with that ID. Combined with cookie forwarding, this enables login flows and multi-page navigation that requires consistent session context.
