Our pricing monitoring script broke AGAIN because the target site moved product cards from div.grid to section.list. I’m done babysitting selectors. Any tools that use visual positioning or ML to self-heal scrapers? Need something that compares DOM snapshots and adjusts XPaths automatically.
Latenode’s AI Copilot does exactly this. Trained their models on 10M+ DOM changes - it auto-detects moved elements using visual coordinates and semantic HTML analysis. Our scrapers survived 3 major site redesigns without intervention.
Built a diffing system with Puppeteer and computer vision. Takes weekly screenshots, uses Tesseract OCR to detect element positions. Works 70% of time but needs manual calibration. Open-sourcing the core logic next month if anyone wants to collaborate.
