Web Scraper or Python Script Not Working? We Fix It Today

Scrapers break for predictable reasons: the site changed its layout, added protection, or started rate-limiting; pagination or login flows changed; a Python package or browser driver updated; or the script runs fine on one machine and not on the server. We find the cause on a short call, fix it the same business day, and harden it so it fails loudly next time instead of silently returning nothing.

What we check first

  1. What the target site changed: layout, selectors, pagination, login or anti-bot measures.
  2. Rate limits and blocking, and whether the request pattern, headers or proxy setup need to change.
  3. Python, Playwright, Selenium and driver versions on the machine it runs on.
  4. Scheduling and environment: cron, PM2, Docker, environment variables, file paths.
  5. Output validation, so an empty or partial result raises an alert instead of passing silently.

What you get

  • The scraper or script running again, with the cause documented.
  • Validation and alerting on the output.
  • Optional: move it into n8n or a scheduled job we monitor for you.

How it works

  1. Book the free 15-minute call or email us what is happening. You hear back the same business day.
  2. We diagnose on the call with screen share or read-only access, and you get a fixed quote the same day.
  3. You share access, we fix it, in your accounts and on your servers. You keep ownership of everything.
  4. You get a short written note of the cause, the change, and how to stop it recurring.

Frequently asked questions

Do you scrape any site?

No. We only scrape publicly available data, we respect the target site's terms and rate limits, and we decline jobs that involve personal data people have not made public.

My scraper works on my laptop but not on the server.

That is one of the most common cases: different Python or browser versions, missing system libraries, or paths that only exist locally. We make the server environment match and pin the versions.
