Slickdeals Forum Thread Scraper

Scrape deals from any Slickdeals forum thread list page. Simply provide a forum URL — Hot Deals, filtered views, category pages, or any custom forum query — and get structured deal data with direct links to the original merchant.

🚀 Features

• Any Forum Page: Works with any Slickdeals forum thread list URL — Hot Deals, Frontpage Deals, filtered searches, category pages, etc.
• Direct Merchant Links: Returns the actual deal URL (e.g., Amazon, Walmart), not the forum thread link.
• Structured Data: Returns clean JSON with title, pricing, discounts, and visual assets.
• Discount Analysis: Automatically calculates savedAmount and percentOff when available.
