A promising product in its early stages

I must say that this product is promising, and I like it, but it gives me inconsistent results at this stage.

Firstly, I thought that the AI might be used only to extract the information as it is on the web page, but I was wrong. As a result, features like summarization or translation of the website content are present, which is great. However, on the other hand, the AI could alter the scraped information, giving inaccurate outputs.

After some testing, I see that this tool could alter the description or the price of a scraped product on its own and without your knowledge. It can also lose some entries/items in the conversion process. Most of the time, it is the entries at the end of the list that are lost, but the ones in the middle could also be lost from time to time. It could give you relative links instead of absolute ones or vice versa, etc. What I mean is that we, as customers, have to deal with the AI instead of having everything done for us.

Surely I could address most of the issues I had by adding proper prompts, but for now, I do not feel confident enough with the obtained results.

Regarding the website interface, the things that could be improved are:
- The "Generate JSON from webpage content" feature could take too much time to process the request or may not work at all from time to time.
- I also miss an option to edit the "Dynamic URL Options" once the API is created.
- It would also be great to be able to have multiple API keys. In fact, I see that this is a recommended workaround according to the documentation: "Use different keys for different environments," but I do not see that this feature is implemented yet.

Summarizing, this could become a great tool for professional and amateur developers, but at this stage, I do not feel it is reliable enough for me to use in production environments. I hope this could change in the near future.

Hi,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. We genuinely appreciate your early support and constructive feedback — it helps us improve PulpMiner in the right direction.

You’re absolutely right about the potential and current limitations. We’re still in the early stages, we understand that they can sometimes introduce inconsistencies or alter data unintentionally since data is parsed by AI. Accuracy is our top priority, and we’re actively working on giving users more control over AI behaviour — there is already a data extraction rule input box but we understand the issue and working towards a more controlled approach.

The issues you highlighted with missing entries, altered content, and link formats are extremely helpful for us to address. We’re actively investigating these and already rolling out improvements to our parsing and data integrity systems.

On the product side:
• We’re aware that the “Generate JSON” feature can occasionally timeout, especially on complex pages — optimizations are in progress.
• Editable Dynamic URL Options is a much-requested feature and is already on our roadmap.
• And yes, support for multiple API keys is indeed coming very soon — we understand how important it is for managing different environments, i will be rectifying the docs soon.

We completely understand your hesitation in using the tool in production right now. Your feedback will directly influence the next set of improvements, and we hope to regain your confidence as we continue to grow and refine the platform.

Thanks again for being part of this journey with us 🙏

Warm regards,
Melvin
