Browsable is a web scraping tool that automatically reverse-engineers any website into a reusable API, returning clean structured data while handling logins and anti-bot protections.
Browsable converts any website into a scraping API in minutes. Paste a URL—say https://youtube.com/@mrbeast—and Browsable analyzes the page structure to generate an endpoint that works for all pages with the same layout (e.g., any YouTube channel by passing the channel name as a parameter). The platform runs as a web service and also offers a CLI, an MCP server, and a npm skill for integration with coding agents like Claude Code and Codex.
npx skills add browsable-app/create-web-scraper-skill -y -g).Paste any target URL on the Browsable website and click “Create a scraping API”. The system learns the page’s structure and immediately returns a POST endpoint you can call with parameters. For example, creating a scraper from https://youtube.com/@mrbeast produces an endpoint that accepts a channel name variable—letting you scrape any YouTube channel. You can also install Browsable as a CLI tool or connect it to your coding agent via the MCP server.
Browsable is free to use. Pre‑built APIs are available at no cost, and you can generate custom scrapers without a subscription.
Yes. All features shown on the website—including generating custom APIs and using pre‑built scrapers—are available for free with no credit card required.
Yes. Browsable handles authentication for sites like Instagram (managed Instagram login) and Patreon (optional managed auth for paid content you can view). The API returns HTTP 428 if login is needed but not configured.
It works with Claude Code, Codex, and any HTTP client. You can also use the CLI (npx skills add ...) or the MCP server to integrate directly into agent workflows.
Go to browsable.app, paste a URL, and click “Create a scraping API” to get your first endpoint. No account required.
