Show HN: SingleAPI – Convert the Internet into your own API (singleapi.co)

15 points by semanser ↗ HN
Hi! I created a universal data API that uses headless browsers and GPT to extract any data from the web in JSON format. I started this project because I needed some API to do data enrichment to get company data (headcount, investment rounds, etc.). Once I did the first version, I quickly realized that there can be many use cases for such a tool: data enrichment, web scraping, data validation, etc.

Thanks!

How do you offer a 99,99% SLA when OpenAI does not publish an SLA afaik?

The landing page copy looks good, but there's nothing there, other than a signup page.

Thanks. I also published a simplified version of the same API on GitHub, so you can find it here: https://github.com/semanser/jsongenius. The plan is to make the open-source version equally powerful, so I'm going to decrease the gap between them with future updates.

I don't think I like this kind of bait-y submission. Post a workable service or a repo with code, but don't come begging to collect our email addresses.

hey, sorry for the confusion! I published a simplified open source self hosted version of this here, so feel free to check it out: https://github.com/semanser/jsongenius

SingleAPI is a hosted solution with more options, settings and optimized for stable uptime. Let me know if that helped in any way :)

I was interested until I noticed that the testimonials appear to be just unsplash stock images. And I can't spot any of the people on LinkedIn.

Are these real testimonials?
