Any website, as a spreadsheet?
Without writing any code

Featured app • Octoparse
Website data, ready to use
Octoparse turns the information on a web page into clean rows and columns. Pick a ready-made template for sites like Google Maps or Amazon, let its AI assistant browse the page and build the task, or point and click to choose the fields yourself. Jobs run on a schedule in the cloud and export straight to Google Sheets, databases or Zapier, with an API and MCP for developers who want to plug it into their own tools. More than 50,000 students and researchers use it alongside sales, e-commerce and media teams.
What is it:
A no-code web data tool that turns any website into clean, structured data using templates or an AI assistant.
Who is it for:
Research, sales and operations teams who need web data regularly but don't have an engineer to build a scraper.
Alternative to:
Apify, Bright Data, ParseHub, Browse AI, Import.io, or copying rows from a website into a spreadsheet by hand.
Why we like it:
We like Octoparse because people who don't write code can set up a data feed themselves, without waiting on engineering.
