About
We've all been there: needing data from websites but hitting a wall of frustration. Getting the information you need can feel like a huge headache. Lately you try prompting a tool, but it just doesn't get you what you really want.
That's the problem we set out to solve. We've built Maxun: an open-source, platform that lets anyone extract web data without writing a single line of code. 💪
How It Works: Point, Click, Extract
Our core principle is simple: Do not code, but show. Do not prompt, but show. We believe you should be able to teach a tool by simply demonstrating what you want it to do.
Imagine teaching your browser to collect data for you. That's essentially what you do:
Record Your Actions: You simply browse a website within our tool, clicking on the info you want (like a product name or price).
Save as a Robot: Your clicks become a reusable "robot" that remembers exactly what you did.
Get Clean Data: Run your robot, and it collects that data for you, ready to export as CSV, JSON, or through an API.
Why It Helps You
Super Simple: If you can click around a website, you can use this. No coding skills needed.
Reliable: Your robots follow your exact steps, giving you consistent results every time.
Auto-Adapts to Website Changes: Our smart robots are designed to handle layout shifts, reducing breakage and maintenance.
Plug & Play "Auto Robots": We offer pre-built templates for common websites and use cases, so you can often start extracting data in seconds. We intend to add 100s of these!
Our Journey
We built this in the open because we want to unlock web data access for everyone. In just seven months, the project has gained 13,000 GitHub stars and helped users extract more than 12 million rows of data.
To us, those numbers mean we're helping solve a common problem for many people. Maybe you too!
