Asking AI to build scrapers should be easy right?

That makes a lot of sense. Sometimes it's easier to leave the baggage behind. It's too bad..selenium is a masterpiece. Thanks for sharing it with the world

This makes sense. I guess I wanted to understand why starting from scratch was better than "fixing" selenium, but perhaps "fixing" selenium isn't an option?

This is very cool. We were thinking about doing something very similar with Skyvern

What was the reason you went down this path instead of extending selenium with AI features?

maybe https://github.com/Skyvern-AI/Skyvern ?

You're right, but this is where the LLMs are especially useful. Our customers all prompt it to terminate if it doesn't have the right information / the pre submission confirmation doesn't match

What are some of the risks? This is a public web form available on the IRS website

No, we don't have a lot of usage in that direction. People mainly use us to log into websites and either fill out forms or download files!

Unrelated, but thoughtful gave us some very very helpful feedback early in our journey. We are big fans!

Definitely. What are your thoughts on the CloudFlare agent identity

It's funny, one time we had a customer that wanted to use us to test their website for bugs..

Skyvern kept suggesting improvements unrelated to the issue they were testing for

We do have them! We are HIPAA compliant, have soc-2 type 2 and offer self hosted deployments

This is really cool. We might integrate this into Skyvern actually - we've been looking for a faster HTML extraction engine

Thanks for sharing!

I have a 2yo and it's been surreal watching her learn the world. It deeply resembles how LLMs learn and think. Crazy

Yeah, reverse engineering APIs is another fantastic approach. They aren't enough if you are dealing with wizards (eg typeform), but they can work really well
suchintan

IF you can use crawlers, definitely do.

They aren't enough for anything that's login-protected, or requires interacting with wizards (eg JS, downloading files, etc)
suchintan

I think they're complementary, and that's the direction we're headed.

We can ask the vision based models to output why they are doing what they are doing, and fallback to code-based approaches for subsequent runs

We can do it remotely with Skyvern if you're interested

Have you given Skyvern a try? Integrating it with n8n might do the trick
