If you mean a point-and-click web data extraction tool that lets you visually select fields on a page and export data, here are some good options:
No-code / low-code tools
- Browse AI – very popular, easy to use, good for scraping and monitoring changes.
- Octoparse – visual scraper with point-and-click interface, handles pagination and some dynamic sites.
- ParseHub – supports more complex workflows and JS-heavy sites.
- Import.io – enterprise-focused, good for structured extraction.
- Apify – more technical, but has visual tools and many ready-made actors.
Browser extensions
- Data Miner – simple point-and-click extraction in Chrome.
- Instant Data Scraper – free Chrome extension for quick table/list extraction.
- Web Scraper – Chrome extension with sitemap-based visual scraping.
Best choices by use case
- Simplest for beginners: Browse AI or Instant Data Scraper
- More powerful visual scraping: Octoparse or ParseHub

Things to check before choosing
- Does it support pagination?
- Can it handle login-required pages?
- Does it work with JavaScript-rendered sites?
- Export formats: CSV, Excel, JSON, Google Sheets
- Scheduling / change monitoring
If you want, I can also recommend the best tool for your exact site (e.g. e-commerce, directory, news, LinkedIn-like pages, tables, etc.).
