Could you build this?
Partial A web scraper generator using an LLM to parse HTML is trivial, but building direct, browserless REST APIs that bypass modern bot detection and auto-heal against web changes requires sophisticated reverse engineering.
What it would actually take: The core engine requires an automated network-traffic analyzer that inspects internal single-page app and mobile API calls, extracts session state, and reproduces authenticated HTTP payloads without spinning up a browser. It demands an enterprise proxy rotation infrastructure, TLS/JA3 fingerprint spoofing, dynamic CAPTCHA solving, and schema change detection, which requires specialized anti-bot reverse engineering expertise.
