Hey HN Community!<p>Just built a service I thought y&#x27;all might find interesting.<p>Rather than using HTML structure to scrape, I&#x27;m using GPT-3 to actually understand the text and pull information out.<p>You just ask for things you want from a site, for example a news article about fundraising like this: &quot;The name of the company that raised funding&quot; &quot;Founders or CEO of the company&quot; &quot;URL of the company that raised funding&quot; &quot;A short description of the company&quot; &quot;A list of investors&quot;<p>And get back the needed data in a JSON object! It&#x27;s been pretty fun to play with and I thought some of you might find interesting use cases for it.<p>I think it would also be very effective at parsing PDFs (same as text).
