High-Throughput Web Scraping for Machine Learning (ML) & LLMs
Fuel your Machine Learning (ML) models, open-weight LLMs (Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek), and synthetic QA generators with clean, deduplicated, and token-optimized web corpora. Extract millions of pages into structured JSONL and Parquet without HTML pollution.
The End-to-End Web Data Pipeline for Deep Learning
From dynamic JavaScript web apps to train-ready Hugging Face datasets in 4 automated stages
1. Stealth Crawling
Bypass Cloudflare Turnstile, DataDome, and anti-scraping WAFs using distributed residential proxies and headless Chromium clusters.
2. Fit-Markdown Cleaning
Heuristically strip navigation bars, advertisements, cookie popups, and SVG glyphs. Retain pure editorial text, markdown tables, and headers.
3. Semantic Chunking
Split documents along semantic boundaries (H2, H3, paragraphs) preserving context rather than blind character token slicing.
4. Export & Embedding
Export directly to JSONL, Parquet or compute native 1536-dim / 3072-dim embeddings ready for direct upsert into Pinecone and Qdrant.
Extract ML Corpora with 3 Lines of Python
Integrate directly into PyTorch, Hugging Face Datasets, LangChain, or Ray. Stream scraped web documents as structured JSONL ready for tokenizer pre-training.
- ✔ Zero rate-limiting: scale to millions of URLs concurrently
- ✔ Automatic language detection and YAML frontmatter metadata
- ✔ Crypto-native API billing: top up with USDT / TRX with zero KYC

Machine Learning & Scraping FAQ
Why is Fit-Markdown better than raw HTML for Machine Learning training?
Raw HTML contains over 70% to 90% boilerplate (CSS classes, script tags, tracking pixels, nested navbars). Feeding raw HTML to tokenizers wastes token context windows and teaches models irrelevant web markup instead of semantic facts. Fit-Markdown isolates the core content, slashing training token costs.
Can FlyCrawl scrape dynamic Single-Page Applications (React, Vue, Next.js) for ML datasets?
Yes. FlyCrawl uses a headless Chromium browser cluster with automated DOM wait conditions, JavaScript execution, and infinite-scroll handling to render single-page applications before extracting structured markdown.
What export formats are supported for ML datasets?
FlyCrawl supports Fit-Markdown, Structured JSON, JSONL (JSON Lines) for bulk pretraining corpora, Parquet files, and pre-computed 1536-dimensional and 3072-dimensional vector embeddings.
