Octoparse
Octoparse alternative
Data extraction with nothing to rebuild.
When a site changes its layout, an Octoparse task usually needs a new XPath or a rebuilt workflow before it runs again. Jsonify repairs the extraction on its own, checks a sample and keeps your schedule, so your client gets the data on time.
Your first 100 rows each month are free. Put them next to what your Octoparse task collects and decide for yourself. No credit card.
Since 2023 we’ve extracted billions of data points for teams at
What comes off your plate.
- Fixing XPaths after a redesign.If a site changes, Jsonify repairs the extraction and checks a sample before the next run. You see the fix in the run history.
- Cleaning rows before a client sees them.Duplicates, blanks and half-loaded pages are caught before delivery. Each row keeps its source page and collection time.
- Building workflows click by click.Describe the job once, across every site you need, and Jsonify sets it up. There’s no desktop app to learn.
- Paying extra for proxies and CAPTCHAs.You pay per row delivered, whichever site it comes from, so you can quote a client a fixed price.
Octoparse and Jsonify, side by side.
| Compared | Octoparse |  Jsonify |
|---|---|---|
| Getting started | Build a task step by step in the desktop app, or start from a template. | Describe the whole job once. Jsonify sets it up across every site. |
| When a site changes | Update the XPath, or rebuild the workflow. | Repaired automatically, with a sample checked before the next run. |
| Before data reaches you | You check the output yourself. | Every row is checked and keeps its source page and collection time. |
| What you pay for | A plan sized by number of tasks, plus proxies per GB and CAPTCHA solving per thousand. | Rows delivered. Every site costs the same, and retries and repairs are free. |
Built for data you deliver every week.

Here’s my Octoparse task: it tracks 800 products across two retailers every morning and exports to Google Sheets.
JsonifyI’ll collect the same 800 products from both retailers every day at 06:00, with price, promotion and stock. Here are the first rows to check against your export:
| Product | Retailer | Price | Stock |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oat drink 1L | Greenway | £2.20 | In stock |
| Oat drink 1L | Hartwell’s | £2.40 | In stock |
| Coffee beans 250g | Fresco | £4.80 | Low |
When a site changes, here’s what happens.
- 18m 46s[1]Median time from a failed run to a verified repair
- $0Charged for the failed run, the retries or the repair
- 6,178[2]Websites and apps Jsonify has already learned, so most jobs start from a known site

One price per row. No add-ons.
Octoparse sells plans by the number of tasks, then charges for residential proxies by the gigabyte and CAPTCHA solving by the thousand. Jsonify charges one rate for each row that passes its checks and reaches you. Failed runs, retries and repairs are on us, so a hard site doesn’t blow up the month.
