Site Scrapers
Your agent can't parse a platform's tangled markup; these return clean, structured items from specific sites.
Web & Search
Extracts structured records from specific types of websites: social platforms, video sites, marketplaces, review sites, property listings, travel, and jobs. Each operation is purpose-built for its target, returning clean, typed records instead of raw HTML. Use this when you know which platform you want data from; use generic web scraping for arbitrary URLs.
Use when
You need structured items from a known platform such as social, maps, marketplaces, reviews, jobs, listings, or video.
Not for
Crawling arbitrary websites, pages behind your own login, or low-latency single lookups; use general web scraping or research for those.
What you can do
Each is a sub-skill of Site Scrapers; the router picks the right one for your request.
What you get back
information
Returns a list of structured records plus a count. A large run may come back in progress with a continuation to send straight back; it is not a downloadable file.
When it checks with you first
The platform or whether you want discovery by keyword versus detail on a known URL is unclear, and it changes the cost.
Run it
Skills run through one gateway with your Faro token. Hand it an intent in plain language; Faro routes to the right sub-skill, runs it, and bills per call.
