01 · Why meter

Stop building infrastructure. Start shipping scrapers.

Zero infra to operate. Antibot, proxies, retries, and change detection are all handled. You describe the data; we return it.

Zero infrastructure.

No queues, no workers, no proxy pools to manage. We run the scraping infra so you don't have to.

Managed · workers + pools

Antibot bypass. · enterprise

Cloudflare, PerimeterX, DataDome — all handled automatically. You never touch a CAPTCHA solver.

Tier · enterprise

Proxy rotation. · enterprise

Managed rotating pool — residential and datacenter. No more 403s or IP bans.

Tier · enterprise

Smart change detection.

Ignore noise from ads, timestamps, and layout shifts. Get alerted only on real content changes.

Signal · similarity < 0.95

Perfect for RAG.

Only re-embed what changed. Teams report cutting embedding costs by 95%.

Savings · up to 95%

Webhooks on change.

We POST the diff to your endpoint the moment a page moves. No polling, no cron to maintain.

Delivery · < 5s after change
02 · How it works

You describe it. We scrape it. You get notified.

Four steps from URL to a live datafeed in your pipeline. The SDK is the shape of the product.

01
Describe in plain English.

Tell us the URL and what data you need. Our AI analyzes the page structure and generates a reusable strategy — not a fragile selector chain.

02
We scrape on a schedule.

Every 15 min, hourly, or on a cron. Antibot bypass and proxy rotation run automatically. No LLM cost per run.

03
Detect real changes only.

Content hash, structural signature, and semantic similarity — three honest checks. Ads, timestamps, and layout shifts are ignored.

04
Webhook fires with the diff.

POST to your URL with added, updated, and removed items. Update your vector DB, RAG index, or data warehouse with only what moved.

meter-sdk · 1.0
# 1 · describe in plain English
from meter_sdk import MeterClient
c = MeterClient(api_key="sk_live_…")

strat = c.generate_strategy(
    url="https://example.com/products",
    description="product name, price, stock",
)

# 2 · run — no LLM cost
job = c.create_job(strat["strategy_id"])
items = c.wait_for_job(job["job_id"])["results"]

# 3 · schedule + webhook on change

03 · Reliability

Real-time change detection. Self-healing scrapers.

We watch the pages you care about and tell you the moment they move. When a site changes shape, we rewrite the strategy automatically.

01 · Live signal

Real-time change detection.

We diff every scrape and fire your webhook the moment content actually moves. No polling, no cron jobs to maintain on your end.

Latency · < 5s after change
02 · Resilience

Self-healing scrapers.

When a site's structure shifts, our agents detect the break and rewrite the extraction strategy automatically. Your pipeline keeps running.

Recovery · auto · no rewrites
03 · Enterprise

Antibot & proxies.

Cloudflare, PerimeterX, DataDome — handled, plus a managed residential + datacenter proxy pool. Available on the enterprise tier.

06 · FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

The short answers. For details, read the docs or reach out.

01Do you offer antibot bypass?+
Yes — on the enterprise tier. We handle Cloudflare, PerimeterX, DataDome, and most major antibot systems automatically.
02How does AI strategy generation work?+
Provide a URL and describe what you want to extract. Our AI analyzes the page structure, identifies the best extraction method, and generates a strategy. You can refine it with feedback — all without re-scraping the page.
03Do I need to manage proxies?+
No. On the enterprise tier we maintain a rotating proxy pool — residential and datacenter — so you never see a 403 or an IP ban.
04How do you detect changes?+
A combination of content hashing, structural signatures, and semantic similarity. We ignore ads, timestamps, and layout changes — only alerting you when the content you care about has actually moved.
05What happens after the AI generates a strategy?+
Once the strategy is created, meter switches to raw scraping (CSS selectors, DOM parsing) for all future scrapes — no LLM costs. You only pay for the initial generation. This gives you the speed and cost-efficiency of traditional scraping with the intelligence of AI-powered setup.
06How do webhooks work?+
When we detect meaningful content changes, we POST the updated data to your webhook URL. You can then update your vector database with only the changed content. If nothing meaningful changed, you won't get a webhook — saving you processing time and cost.
07What sites can you scrape?+
JavaScript-heavy sites, dynamic content, paginated data — all handled. Our system automatically chooses the best extraction method, whether that's underlying API calls or CSS selectors.
08How does pricing work?+
Free tier includes 10 strategies with basic scraping. Pro is $29/month with 60 strategies, unlimited jobs, hourly monitoring, webhooks, and priority support. Enterprise plans with custom pricing include antibot bypass, proxy rotation, and custom integrations. Start with a 7-day free trial — no credit card required.
