Known Issues

  2. Might not work for all websites
  3. CSS Selector tool is not perfect
  4. Difficult to extract link
  5. Javascript rendering does not always work

AI Assisted Parsing

ChatGPT is great at extract and grabbing data. However it has a token size limit (8192). So to help break down the token size. You can select specific elements to pass into the prompt. Using CSS Selector to grab a small subset of elements to parse, allowing ChatGPT to extract data from websites.
