Before Bright Data we were using a web data scraping solution where we had an API that we would need to repeat the same request over and over to collect web data in real-time, and physically target new merging web data.
Using Bright Data I can schedule this process repeatedly, so that I get results coming in on a regular
basis without the need to reinitiate the process every time I want to find new web data. The ability to
work at scale basically has changed how we do things, and it’s made dealing with larger clients a task that would have been impossible before.
We’re using the Bright Data Web Scraper IDE to automatically grab public web data across social media platforms. We’re capturing follower and subscribers data on behalf of our clients, and through Bright Data we can now store all their social reach in one easily accessible place.
We’re now actually bringing data science into a world that, beforehand was mostly trial and error.
