Today we're excited to announce the launch of four free tools designed to help UK businesses plan and execute web scraping projects more effectively. Whether you're exploring data extraction for the first time or you're a seasoned professional, these tools will save you time and help you make better decisions.

Perfect for: Data transformation, Excel imports, API preparation.
Convert Data →Why We Built These
After completing over 500 web scraping projects for UK businesses, we noticed a pattern: many potential clients spent weeks researching and planning before reaching out. They had questions like:
- How much will this cost?
- Is it even possible to scrape this website?
- Is it legal and compliant?
- How do I work with the data once I have it?
These tools answer those questions instantly. They're the same questions we ask ourselves at the start of every project — now you can get those answers before even speaking to us.
Privacy First
All our tools run entirely in your browser. The data you enter never leaves your device — we don't store it, we don't see it, and we certainly don't sell it. This is particularly important for the data converter, where you might be working with sensitive business information.
What's Next?
We're planning to add more tools based on user feedback:
- Selector Tester — Test CSS selectors and XPath expressions against live pages
- Rate Limit Calculator — Calculate optimal request rates for your scraping projects
- Data Quality Checker — Validate scraped data for completeness and accuracy
Have a suggestion? We'd love to hear it. Get in touch and let us know what would help you most.
