In this article we will discuss our top products, and how they can best serve your business including:
Web Scraper IDE
Web Scraper IDE is a unique product in the industry in that it is one of the only tools out there that can put your company’s data collection efforts on autopilot. What really puts this product ‘on the map’, so to speak, is its ability to collect public data in seconds, with the ability to juggle large amounts of simultaneous requests. Another great feature for agile projects and dynamic budgets is the ability to pause and reinitiate live data collection jobs.
Top product features
The features that really make this product stand out include:
- Zero in-house infrastructure required
- Eliminates any need for dedicating personnel to data collection projects
- Data collection is flexible and scalable based on your project needs
- Adapts to real-time changes, and blockades to ensure you always gain access to your target datasets
- Collects live data points as they are being generated my consumers, and target audiences
- The datasets that are delivered are ready-to-use in your format of choice e.g. API, Webhook, Amazon S3 bucket etc
How it works
Step one: Depending on your target site and data, you can choose from an existing data collector, ask us to build you a customized one, or build your own using our IDE.
Step two: You decide on your delivery preferences such as how often you want data collected and delivered as well as in what format (Webhook, email, Amazon S3, etc)
Step three: Your target data is delivered directly to your teams or designated algorithms in a ready-to-use format (JSON, CSV, Excel, etc)
Web Unlocker
This is an extremely powerful website unblocker tool with a 100% success rate. With the click of a button, you send a request and can unblock your toughest target sites with zero technical know-how. What sets this tool apart is its capability to constantly identify and adapt itself to new and ever more sophisticated blocking techniques. It manages everything from fingerprints, and User-Agents to request headers/retries, as well as IP rotations.
Top product features
- Content verification: Our systems validate the content you are being delivered using parameters such as request timing, and data types in order to ensure that it is accurate, and reliable.
- Environment emulation: For example, at the OS/HW level, it will emulate device enumeration, screen resolution, memory, cpu, etc
- Request management: Meaning our algorithms always find the settings that will offer you the highest success rates on a per-domain basis, resolving obstacles such as CAPTCHAs
How it works
Getting started is very easy and straightforward. You start by creating a request and then our technology takes care of the rest. Your request may look something like this:
‘curl -k –proxy lum-customer-<id>-zone-<zone_name>-unblocker:<password>@zproxy.lum-superproxy.io:22225 https://example.com’
Here is a quick breakdown of your request journey:
- You send a query to Web Unlcoker
- This gets fed into the Web Unlocker algorithm which modifies the request headers and protocols as needed
- This in turn gets sent to one of our ‘Super Proxies’ located on every continent in close proximity geographically to your target site
- The Super Proxy routes the request to one of our four proxy infrastructure networks in order to get you the most efficient result (i.e. an option that will have the highest chances of success at the best rate possible).
- A user fingerprint is added, and the target site is accessed
- Your desired dataset is retrieved and delivered to you in your desired format
This whole process can happen in a matter of seconds, depending on the size of your requested dataset and challenges that the site that your target site presents.
