Frequently asked questions

Maxun is a web data platform that turns any website into clean, structured data for your apps, workflows and AI agents. You can scrape, crawl, extract, search and monitor the web through our REST API, SDKs, CLI and MCP server, or through a no-code interface that lets anyone on your team build data robots by clicking or describing what they need in plain English.
Teams use Maxun for price and competitor monitoring, lead generation, market research, RAG pipelines, AI agents that need live web data, job and real estate aggregators, review and sentiment tracking, and content monitoring. If the data is on a website, you can turn it into a dataset, a scheduled feed or an API.
Maxun is built for both developers and non-technical teams. Developers and AI engineers use the API, SDKs, CLI and MCP server to power products and agents. Growth, operations and research teams use the no-code interface to build and schedule robots without writing code. Both work on the same platform, so teams can hand work back and forth.
You tell Maxun what data you want by writing code with the API or SDK, by clicking elements in the recorder, by describing it in plain English with AI mode, or by starting from a pre-built auto robot. Maxun then runs a real browser, handles JavaScript, pagination, infinite scroll and logins, and returns clean data. Every robot can run on demand through the API or on a schedule, with results delivered by webhook, export or integration.
  • Scrape turns any web page into LLM-ready Markdown, HTML, text, links or screenshots.
  • Crawl follows links across an entire website and returns the content of every page.
  • Extract pulls structured data such as lists, tables and product details into rows and columns, using the recorder or an AI prompt.
  • Search finds relevant pages on the web for a query and can scrape each result.
  • Monitor runs robots on a schedule and notifies you the moment a website changes.
Yes. You can extract prices, contact details, listings, job posts, reviews, product specs and almost anything else visible on a page. Point and click on the data in the recorder, or describe it in natural language and let AI mode find it. Deep Extraction can also follow each item on a list page to its detail page and combine everything into one dataset.
Scrape and crawl robots return clean Markdown optimized for LLMs, as well as HTML, plain text, links and screenshots. Extract robots return structured rows you can get as JSON through the API or webhooks, export as CSV or JSON, or send to Google Sheets.
Yes. Maxun runs a real browser, so it fully renders single-page apps built with React, Vue, Angular and other frameworks. It also handles infinite scroll, load more buttons, pagination, clicks and form inputs.
Yes. With the Maxun Chrome extension, robots can securely reuse your existing logged-in browser session, so you never share your username or password with Maxun. This lets you extract data from dashboards, portals, member areas and other authenticated pages. Learn how it works.
Maxun Cloud runs on managed anti-bot infrastructure with automatic proxy rotation, browser fingerprinting, stealth mode and CAPTCHA bypass, so your robots can reach protected websites without you managing proxies or browsers.
When websites change their design or structure, traditional scrapers break. Maxun detects these changes and automatically adapts your robots, so your data keeps flowing without you rewriting selectors or rebuilding anything.
Yes. Schedule any robot to run hourly, daily or on a custom schedule, and Maxun will track changes to prices, stock, listings, content or any other data. Get notified by email or webhook as soon as something changes.
Yes. Document robots parse, extract data from and summarize PDFs, CSV, DOCX, JPG, PNG and XLSX files, so you can turn documents into structured data the same way you do with web pages.
Yes. Maxun has an MCP server, so agents in Claude, Cursor and other MCP-compatible tools can scrape, crawl, extract and search the web directly. Maxun also offers a Claude Code skill and works with LangGraph, n8n and OpenClaw. Clean Markdown output keeps token usage low and gives your models better context. See the MCP docs.
Maxun provides a REST API, official SDKs for Node.js/TypeScript and Python, a CLI for terminal workflows, an MCP server for AI agents, and webhooks for real-time delivery. You can generate your API key from the Maxun dashboard. Check the API docs and SDK docs.
Yes. Alongside the API and SDKs, Maxun has a no-code interface. Build a robot in minutes by clicking on the data you want, describing it in plain English, or starting from one of pre-built auto robots, then schedule it and export the results.
Yes. Maxun can extract from thousands of pages at once and supports long-running tasks, making it suitable for large datasets, extensive market research and high-volume pipelines. Plans scale up to 350,000 credits per month, and Premium plans offer custom limits for bigger workloads.
Yes. For organizations with complex needs, such as many sources, changing formats or integrations with internal systems, our team builds and runs fully managed, tailored data pipelines. We support extracting millions of data points per month with dedicated infrastructure and hands-on support. Talk to sales.
Collecting publicly available data is legal in many jurisdictions, but it depends on the data, the website's terms and how you use it. Maxun is built for responsible use: we recommend reviewing each website's terms of service, avoiding personal data without a lawful basis under laws such as GDPR, and we include rate limiting so extractions don't overwhelm websites. This is not legal advice.
Yes. Maxun Cloud comes with a 7-day free trial with full access to every feature, and no credit card is required. You can build robots, use the API and test everything on your own websites before choosing a plan. See pricing.
You only pay for successful requests. If a request fails, no credits are deducted.
Yes. Maxun is open source under the AGPLv3 license, with more than 17,000 stars on GitHub at github.com/getmaxun/maxun. You can view, modify, self-host and contribute to the code.
Both include scrape, crawl, extract, search, monitoring, the API, SDKs, webhooks and extraction behind login. Maxun Cloud adds managed anti-bot infrastructure with CAPTCHA bypass and automatic proxy rotation, Deep Extraction, automatic adaptation to website changes, auto robots, advanced AI features, unlimited workspaces, email notifications, SAML SSO and priority support, with no servers to maintain.
