What is Thunderbit?
Thunderbit is a web scraping tool that uses AI agents to read a page and return its contents as rows and columns. It is delivered mainly as a Chrome extension, with an Edge extension, a web app, an API, a command-line tool and an MCP server also listed. Instead of writing selectors, the user says in plain English which details are wanted; the agent proposes fields, follows links to subpages when asked and fills the table. For frequently scraped sites such as Amazon, eBay and Google Maps there are ready-made templates that return fixed fields without spending AI credits. While extracting, the AI can also summarise, categorise, translate or reformat values. Results go to Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion or Excel. The company aims the product at sales and operations teams without technical staff.
