ScrapBot vs. Gaffa

ScrapBot possesses the ability to traverse websites, authenticate users, and both extract and insert data with ease. It relies on JavaScript for executing tasks, which negates the requirement for any server installations or extra software. Users benefit from real-time insights into all navigation actions through the user interface, enabling them to track interactions effectively. The main.js script operates within a separate frame from the navigation frame while still having unrestricted access to the entire page content. This architectural choice guarantees high efficiency and clarity in how data is managed and processed, ultimately enhancing the user experience.

Gaffa is an API for web scraping and browser automation that gives developers control over real, full browsers with a single request, no headless-browser setup, proxy management, or infrastructure scaling required. Pages render with full JavaScript support by default, matching exactly what a real user would see. The platform covers the full range of automation needs: scraping, AI-powered data extraction into structured JSON using custom schemas, full-page screenshots, PDF export, infinite-scroll scraping, automated form filling, and converting webpages into clean Markdown for AI and LLM workflows. Reliability is built in through a rotating residential proxy network and automatic CAPTCHA and anti-bot handling, so requests succeed even against protected sites. Pricing follows a transparent, credit-based model tied to browser execution time and bandwidth, making costs predictable as usage scales. Gaffa is aimed at AI engineers, data-driven teams, and developers who need dependable, large-scale web data without the overhead of running their own scraping infrastructure.
