- toomuchtodo 3y ago> With Gandalf, requesting user data is as easy as adding our URL to your website or app. Your end-users sign in to services (e.g Netflix, Amazon) in the same way they usually do, on their official website(s). Gandalf takes care of the rest, leveraging App Clips & WebViews for a magical, user-driven experience.
- timigod 3y agoIt's a little similar to how Plaid worked but different in that authentication into the services happens on the user's device. This is in contrast to the other kind of scraping where the end-user has to trust Plaid (or whoever) with their passwords, Gandalf triggers an App Clip with a WebView that lets the user authenticate (in the same way they'd do on their browser) without compromising creds, then scraping happens.
