Reviewer scorecard
“Traditional web scraping is brittle. LLM-powered extraction that understands content structure is the right approach. Works on messy pages where CSS selectors fail.”
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“The LLM cost per extraction makes it expensive at scale. But for high-value data extraction where accuracy matters more than cost, it is worth it.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“Web scraping becomes web understanding. As more AI agents need to read the web, tools like Extractor become essential infrastructure.”
“Interesting concept but the execution isn't there yet. Give it 6 months.”
