browser-recon is an AI agent for scraping reconnaissance. Browse a site for two minutes — our agent returns a production-ready scraping plan: which library to use, which headers and cookies it needs, the safe rate-limit, and a runnable starter script.
You install the CLI, browse the site for two minutes, and get a complete plan back. No proxies to manage, no anti-bot fingerprints to identify by hand, no trial-and-error scripts.
pipx install browser-recon · 128KB, no proprietary code shipped to your machine.
Chrome opens. You click on what matters — a search, a product, a review page. Press Ctrl+C when done.
The agent returns a verified recommendation: library, headers, cookies, rate-limit, and a runnable Python script.
Most scraping tutorials guess at which library will work and which headers matter. browser-recon doesn't guess — it actually fires test requests through real proxies and reports which combinations succeed.
The output isn't advice. It's a working scraper, with the exact library, headers, cookies and timing the live site responds to.
Detects Cloudflare, Akamai, PerimeterX, DataDome, Imperva — and what each one will do to a naive scraper.
Fires test requests through real proxies. Reports which library × proxy combination actually returned the data.
Measured bandwidth × your proxy rate = a real dollar figure per 1,000 requests. Not a vague band.
A Python script with the recommended library, headers, cookies and delay. Drop it into your stack and it works.
One place for your scan history, credit balance and report URLs. Reports stay live for the duration of your plan.
Each report opens with the verdict, the recommended library and proxy tier, and a runnable starter script. Drift detection re-checks the recommendation on schedule.
Estimated cost: $0.40–$2.00 per 1,000 requests using residential proxies. Cookie warmup required before the Reviews GraphQL endpoint will respond. Confidence: 0.82.
Credits expire monthly. Reports stay live for the duration of your tier — re-scan for one credit to refresh.
