### Context building  |
Wave goodbye  to the days of endlessly copying and pasting information from websites into spreadsheets, because today you’re going to learn how to scrape web pages. |
| No-code web scrapers like Browse AI provide an easy way for users to quickly extract specific information from web pages. They’re able to identify the individual elements that make up the structure of a web page and present this information to users in an intuitive user interface. |
| As a user, you then have the ability to select and extract specific pieces of information from a page, giving you an efficient way to collate and download large sums of data. Web scraping can save you a huge amount of time in comparison to manual data collection, lowering the difficulty in getting data-led projects off the ground and speeding up the process of time-intensive data collection tasks. |
| When working on AI projects, you’ll often find the need to efficiently collate structured data which is then used to train AI models. Web scraping is a very common starting point for this type of data collection, used by the leading AI companies in the world, albeit on a HUGE scale. |
