Could you build this?
Partial The unified JSON API layer is codeable, but keeping 950+ site-specific parsers working against anti-bot systems and layout changes requires ongoing scraping infrastructure and maintenance at scale.
What it would actually take: Build a gateway API with per-site parser modules, a headless browser pool, and a proxy network with rotation and retries. The hard parts are anti-bot evasion, proxy infrastructure, and continuously fixing parsers as sites change. This requires an operations-heavy team and significant capital for proxies and compute, and it carries legal exposure around terms of service.
