Alright so if you run a self-hosted blog, you've probably noticed AI companies scraping it for training data. And not just a little (RIP to your server bill). There isn't much you can do about it without cloudflare. These companies ignore robots.txt, and you're competing with teams with more resources than you. It's you vs the MJs of programming, you're not going to win. But there is a solution. Now I'm not going to say it's a great solution...but a solution is a solution. If your website contains content that will trigger their scraper's safeguards, it will get dropped from their data…

Hey all! I'm building these collection of APIs to help query SERP, PDP and Reviews data from Ecommerce sites solo since the past few years. I have hundreds of customers and revenue. ScrapingBee (a popular scraping API service) has started copying me now so I thought of doing a Show HN finally. Please butcher my product. I'd really appreciate your feedback. Do reach out via email if you'd like extra free credits, will add them to your account if your email address doesn't look like spam.

Hello HN, I’m Kamil. The past months have been filled with news about ChatGPT, Bard, etc. Thankfully, there are some heroic attempts to bring that power to the users. I wanted to contribute to that effort with my side project, an extension for Chrome: it makes searching the history by meaning – instead of the exact words – possible. This is only a proof of concept, building on the excellent transformers.js[0], and running entirely in the browser. My goal here is to explore the possibilities unlocked by a client-side AI. I would love to have your feedback, to know which direction that project…

IPDetective collects data from about 60+ different sources such as official cloud provider endpoints and public VPN/Proxy/Tor/Bot net lists. Then aggregates this data into a fast and easy to use API that can be integrated into applications or scripts easily. IPDetective started as a hobby project for my other hobby projects :) and I decided to wrap a simple website around and offer it as a service. Let me know what your thoughts, if you find value in this service or if you have any feature requests.

Hello HackerNews! I would like to invite you to test drive a project I've been working on for qute a while: https://seobots.io This is the long awaited (by myself) release of a concept that I have first presented a few years back. The initial idea was to create a platform capable of hosting small scripts which I constantly make for work and grating everyone access to them, without the need for downloading anything from github or console knowledge requirements. These scripts (aka "bots") can do all sorts of things, such as scraping, posting, parsing – you name it. If you are a…
