## What is Maxun?

Maxun is a powerful no-code ecosystem for web data extraction. With its intuitive no-code interface, anyone can extract data from **any** website — no coding required. In just minutes, users can build automation robots to **turn websites into structured APIs, LLM-ready markdown, spreadsheets, extract data at scale, and much more.**

## How Does It Work?

Maxun uses web robots to power everything you can do on the platform. There are two types of robots, each designed for a different job.

### 1. Extract Robots
**Extract robots emulate real user behavior and capture structured data at scale.**
- Built for automation and structured data extraction
- Point-and-click interface - no coding required
- Extract from any website, including behind logins
- Record user actions (clicks, scrolls, form fills, pagination, etc.)
- Convert sites into APIs, spreadsheets, and workflows
- Scale extractions and run on schedules or via API
- Handle infinite scrolling and pagination
- Auto-adapt to website layout & structural changes

### 2. Scrape Robots
**Built for clean content and AI workflows.**
- Get clean HTML and LLM-ready Markdown from any website
- Remove scripts, styling, ads, and clutter automatically
- Perfect for RAG systems, AI summarization, embeddings, and content pipelines
- Extract main content while filtering out navigation and irrelevant elements
- Ideal for feeding clean data to large language models

## What Can Robots Do?

- ✨ **Open webpages** and navigate sites automatically
- ✨ **Log in** to secured websites and maintain sessions
- ✨ **Click on buttons**, links, and interactive elements
- ✨ **Fill out forms** with custom data
- ✨ **Select from dropdowns**, radios, checkboxes, dates, times, etc.
- ✨ **Take screenshots** - fullpage or visible sections
- ✨ **Capture structured data** without writing code
- ✨ **Handle infinite scrolling** and pagination automatically
- ✨ **Run on schedules** - set it and forget it
- ✨ **Trigger via APIs** for third-party integrations
- ✨ **Extract behind login** walls and authentication
- ✨ **Integrate with applications** like N8N, Google Sheets, Airtable, and more
- ✨ **Send data to webhooks** for real-time processing
- ✨ **Get clean HTML** from websites for AI applications
- ✨ **Turn websites into LLM-ready markdown** for AI pipelines
- ✨ **Talk to your LLM** with MCP (Model Context Protocol)
