Compare CopyCat vs. Gaffa

CopyCat is a no-code platform designed for browser automation that allows users to streamline any web-based task by merging AI-powered prompts with predictable actions such as clicks and form submissions, all without the need for coding. By utilizing an intuitive visual builder, users can incorporate a blend of both agentic and deterministic steps, tailor settings like browser configurations, schedules, and webhooks, and then activate their automations through APIs or schedule them to operate continuously in the cloud. This tool works effortlessly with older websites and portals that do not provide APIs, facilitating the automation of processes like uploading invoices, downloading bank statements, managing reconciliations, handling intricate insurance forms, and extracting data from public records, ultimately enabling teams to save countless hours and enhance operational scalability. Exception-based routing highlights only the atypical cases that require human scrutiny, while robust automated logging and retry mechanisms enhance the overall reliability of operations. With CopyCat, users can significantly improve their productivity and reduce the manual effort associated with repetitive tasks.

Gaffa is a REST API built for web scraping and browser automation, allowing developers to run real, full browsers at scale with a single API call. It removes the difficulty of managing headless browser frameworks, rotating proxies, CAPTCHA solving, and scaling infrastructure, all of which are handled automatically. JavaScript-heavy and dynamic websites render exactly as they would for a human visitor by default. Beyond standard scraping, Gaffa supports AI-driven structured data extraction (extract data into a defined schema without writing CSS selectors), screenshot and PDF capture, infinite-scroll and form-filling automation, and clean Markdown conversion for feeding webpages directly into LLM and RAG pipelines. A rotating residential proxy network keeps access reliable across regions, and a credit-based pricing model means teams pay only for the browser time and bandwidth they actually use. Gaffa is designed for AI engineers, data teams, and developers who want production-grade web data extraction without having to build and maintain their own infrastructure.
