What it solves

Maxun provides a no-code platform to transform unstructured web content into structured, reliable data. It eliminates the need to write custom scraping scripts for every website, allowing users to capture data from the web at scale without technical expertise.

How it works

The platform uses "robots"—automated tools that emulate real user behavior to navigate and collect data. It offers four primary modes of operation:

• Extract: Captures structured data using either a Recorder Mode (recording user actions) or an AI Mode (using natural language descriptions to guide LLM-powered extraction).
• Scrape: Converts webpages into clean Markdown or HTML, specifically optimized for AI agents and document processing.
• Crawl: Navigates entire websites to extract content from all relevant pages based on defined scope.
• Search: Automates web searches to discover and scrape results using time-based filters.

Who it’s for

It is designed for non-technical users who need web data for lead generation, market research, and content aggregation, as well as developers who want to integrate scraping and extraction workflows via an SDK or CLI.

Highlights

• No-Code Interface: Point-and-click data extraction.
• LLM-Powered Extraction: Use natural language to define what data to scrape.
• Website-to-API: Converts any website into a RESTful endpoint.
• AI-Ready Data: Produces clean Markdown for use in LLM applications.
• Automation: Supports scheduling, pagination, and authentication (extracting data behind logins).
• Self-Hostable: Open-source and can be deployed via Docker.
