browse2api

Turn any website into an API.

Extract data or perform actions on any website. We turn it into a production-ready API endpoint. Fast. Structured. Reliable.

How it works

1. Record traffic from a website with the extension
2. Describe the data you want to extract or the action you want to automate
3. Generate a reusable API skill from the captured flow
4. Run that skill through a stable HTTP endpoint

Local development

The local Docker setup runs the full stack:

• web on http://localhost:3000
• backend API on http://localhost:4000
• ARQ worker in the same app container
• Postgres on http://localhost:5432
• Redis on http://localhost:6379

First-time setup

cp infra/.env.example infra/.env
make bootstrap
make dev-up

make bootstrap runs database migrations and seeds a local development user.

Common commands

make dev-up           # build and start web + api + worker + db + redis
make dev-down         # stop the local stack
make dev-logs         # tail local logs
make bootstrap        # run migrations and seed a dev user
make migrate          # run alembic migrations
make seed             # seed a local dev user
make extension-build  # build the browser extension
make app-shell        # open a shell in the app image
