>log in to commentHey everyone 👋 I'm the maker. We built ScrapeAtlas: public web data as clean JSON, via one API. I'd love your honest feedback, and I'm here all week to answer questions!
Example: a price tracker that appends Amazon price snapshots to a CSV takes about 60 lines of Python:
pip install scrapeatlas-price-trackerscrapeatlas-price-tracker --query "wireless earbuds"Who it's for: developers building price monitors, market research dashboards, RAG/agent tools and analytics who want reliable public web data without running a scraping stack. Free API key available.
