I have to do a ton of scraping for my job (sadly), and I've been pretty happy using things like Kimono, import.io, etc. Is this any different from what I've listed?
- phsource 9y agoWrapAPI is in many ways inspired by Kimono for its ease-of-use, but is much more powerful. You can send POST requests and fill out forms, as well as create different types of outputs and chain them. Kimono and import.io, on the other hand, are very much designed for scraping tabular data. If you're pretty satisfied with import.io and Kimono, it might be worth to just keep using them! Give WrapAPI a shot, though, since it can do a lot of things those tools can't.
