ive found Bardeen as im am not clever at python. i have a specific use case which i tried putting together in my free trial but have failed so far. wondering if someone would kindly put it together for me. if i can get the help i need i will be a subscriber. its pretty simple as far as y’alls expertise goes im sure. i need 16 titles plus a very small amount of data, for each title, scraped from one website page. information sent to an excel sheet. and updated once, twice or mayber a few more times each day as the website page refreshes throughout the day. this would be continuous, 5 days a week…i see its a pretty simple process for someone who knows but i am not savy at these things, unfortunately. anyone kindly help a potential customer please.
so, this is where im at atm…hope its ok continuing my post. ive now scraped the info i need from the web page. one cell imported incorrectly out of about 100. so i need to fix this. no idea how. i now need some auto flow in the scraping as on “page 1” there is a list of items. if i click on an item i then go to “page 2”. on page 2 i then need to click i button for the info i need extracting, to show up. i then extract that data from “page 3”. i can do that manually, thats fine. but id like to do all items on page 1 at once but each item has to go through the same process above to get to the required data. then i need thisd to do the same thing a few time a day on its own. can anyone help here please…

Hi, so i have a specific use case. I saw a video on youtu e and Bardeen seems to fit my needs. That being said. I, or anyone for that matter, needs to know whether it will work the way i need it to and need to know that it is going to be cost effective in the long term. If i can explain my requirements to you. If you could then ler me know if it can be done using Bardeen and give me a ball park cost. Then i can decide whether i want to become a subscriber. If my ideas cant work with Bardeen and it will not be cost effective then obviously i would have no need to subscribe. That choice should be mine. I feel like im being forced into subscribing before i even know whether it will be useful for me. Thanks

hello Victoria. im thinking that instead of scraping every “specific” time (1, 5, 10 or 15 minutes). what about if it only scarpes once at the start of the day. then scrapes only an item where the value changes. as some values dont change much and some may change, randomly, every 2, 5, 10 minutes or so. that, to me, sounds like it could lighten the workload…thanks
Hello,
I have done testing for the use case we talked about and could see that scraping actually works even with 1 minute interval. Before we proceed with developing the final solution for you, I would like to confirm with you the cost of the scraping. The issue is that the automation will consume 2 credits per run per 1 stock item scraped. This means if you scrape 17 stock items every minute it will deduct 34 credits from your account. If you run this for let’s say 15 hours a day, it will cost you 30,000 credits.
Here is our pricing page https://www.bardeen.ai/pricing there is a slider to check prices for different amount of credits per month:
In case you decide to proceed with the solution, we will not charge anything for developing a playbook for you, but we will ask you to subscribe to one of our plans.
We were talking with you about different interval options and also an option to only scrape if there was a change on website. I can confirm that interval of 1 minute will work and we can adjust it as you need. This said scraping only if there was a change would be the cheapest solution.
Looking forward to your reply.
Victoria
