Founder story
Founded in 2014 in Walnut, California. Octoparse was built by a team of data engineers who wanted to 'democratize web data.' They saw that while data was the new oil, only programmers could extract it. They built Octoparse to be the 'Excel for the Web,' allowing any professional to turn a website into a database.
