What does Dynamic Web Scraper do?

Dynamic Web Scraper is an open-source Apify Actor that gathers information online by simulating user browsing behavior on the web. It reduces the time and amount of scraped web pages by using a model (ChatGPT) to make decisions regarding browser navigation and results evaluation.

Dynamic Web Scraper takes as input a prompt and a list of initial URLs or Google queries. The model then decides which URLs should be visited in order to provide the best answer to the prompt.
