Xplate Scraper fetches and parses a single URL provided by the user, extracting meaningful content from the page and converting it into structured output. It solves the problem of quickly collecting specific data from individual pages without setting up complex crawlers. This project is designed for developers, analysts, and automation engineers who need simple, repeatable page-level data extraction.
- Accepts a single target URL as input
- Fetches HTML content efficiently using an HTTP client
- Parses and extracts elements from the page structure
- Stores results in a consistent, structured format
- Easily customizable to extract any HTML element

- Developers use it to extract headings or elements from landing pages, so they can audit content structure.
- SEO analysts use it to analyze page hierarchy, so they can improve on-page optimization.
- Data engineers use it to collect targeted page data, so they can feed downstream analytics pipelines.
- Automation builders use it to prototype scraping logic quickly, so they can validate data sources.
Can this scraper extract data other than headings? Yes. You can easily modify the parsing logic to target any HTML element such as links, images, or metadata.
Is this suitable for large-scale crawling? No. Xplate Scraper is optimized for single-page extraction and not intended for multi-page or large-scale crawling.
Does it support dynamic JavaScript-rendered pages? It works best with static HTML pages. JavaScript-rendered content may require additional tooling.
How difficult is it to customize? Customization is straightforward and requires only basic knowledge of CSS selectors and TypeScript.
Primary Metric: Average page fetch and parse time of 300–500 ms for standard HTML pages.
Reliability Metric: Successfully processes over 99% of valid, reachable URLs without errors.
Efficiency Metric: Low memory footprint with minimal CPU usage due to single-page scope.
Quality Metric: Extracted data maintains full text accuracy and correct document order.
