AI Web Scraping

Crawlbase, worked by an AI employee

Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Crawlbase account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What Crawlbase is

Crawlbase provides APIs for crawling web pages, managing crawler queues, storing crawl results, and monitoring account usage.

You paste in a key from your own Crawlbase account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Crawlbase whenever you like.

How a run works

One message in, the work done in Crawlbase.

  1. 01

    You ask

    You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.

  2. 02

    It works out the step

    It decides what the job needs in Crawlbase. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.

  3. 03

    It does the work

    Signed in to your own Crawlbase account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.

  4. 04

    It reports back

    It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

8 tools it already has

What it can do in Crawlbase

These are the ready-made tools your AI employee already has in Crawlbase. It is not limited to them, but it never has to be taught these.

  • Crawl URLFetch a public HTTP or HTTPS URL through Crawlbase using the connected Normal token and return its content with separate target and Crawlbase statuses.
  • Delete Stored PagesIrreversibly delete explicitly selected pages from Crawlbase Cloud Storage by request ID and return each page's deletion outcome.
  • Generate User AgentsGenerate one to ten realistic randomized User-Agent strings for a selected device class.
  • Get Crawling UsageReturn current Crawling API usage and optionally previous-month statistics for the connected Crawlbase account.
  • Get Storage CountReturn the number of pages currently held in Crawlbase Cloud Storage.
  • Get Stored PageRetrieve the latest Crawlbase Cloud Storage page by exactly one request ID or original URL.
  • Get Stored PagesRetrieve up to 100 Crawlbase Cloud Storage pages by request ID without deleting them. Returns decoded page content and identifies requested IDs that were not found.
  • List Stored Page IDsReturn one page of Crawlbase Cloud Storage request IDs and a short-lived continuation cursor.
Access, and who is in charge of it

You stay the boss of your Crawlbase account.

Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.

How we handle your data
  • It signs in to your own Crawlbase account. You are not moving anything into ours.
  • You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.
  • Everything it does in Crawlbase is written down, with what it did and when.
  • Anything you tell it to check with you first, it checks with you first.
Other apps in the same corner of the business

It works in Crawlbase and the rest of your software in the same job

A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.

Questions people ask about Crawlbase

Can an AI employee really work inside Crawlbase?
Yes. It signs in to your own Crawlbase account and works in it the way a new hire would, from the chat your team already has open. Nobody installs anything, and nobody learns a new screen.
Do I have to move anything out of Crawlbase?
No. Nothing moves and nothing is replaced. Your records stay in Crawlbase, your team carries on in the same screens they used yesterday, and your AI employee works alongside them in there.
How does it get into my Crawlbase account?
You paste in a key from your own Crawlbase account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Crawlbase whenever you like. You approve it before anything connects, and you can take the access back the same way you gave it.
What can it actually do in Crawlbase?
It has 8 ready-made tools in Crawlbase today, among them Crawl URL, Delete Stored Pages and Generate User Agents. The full list is on this page. It is not limited to those, but it never has to be taught them.
Can it use Crawlbase and the rest of my software in the same job?
Yes, and that is usually the point. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in Crawlbase and writing the result somewhere else is one request to your AI employee, not three separate ones you stitch together.
Who decides what it is allowed to do in Crawlbase?
You do. You grant access one app at a time and can withdraw it at any time, anything you ask it to check with you first it checks with you first, and everything it does in Crawlbase is written down with what it did and when.
