DOVER, Del., June 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumoris Technologies Inc. ("Lumoris" or "The company"), a pioneering data company committed to transforming data acquisition through artificial intelligence, has recently been honored with the esteemed "Product of the Day" and "Product of the Week" awards for its AI web scraping extension Chat4data on Product Hunt. This recognition arrives at a pivotal moment, reinforcing Chat4data's dedication to building a conversational, context-aware, and AI-native web scraper accessible to all users.

"We didn't expect the wins, and yet we made it!" Said Luis Cobb, product lead of Chat4data.

As traditional data collection tools gradually fade into history due to issues such as complex code, high learning curves and high failure rates, AI seems to provide a new perspective to reimagine how people extract data from websites. "We see the trend in search engines and IDEs, of how they utilize AI to change the environment and interface to make everything more human. And that's what we are going to follow." Stated Luis. A few months ago, Lumoris Technologies Inc. started its AI web scraper extension project in Dover. For them, it is a journey moving from a candle business to an electric one. It still provides light, but the tool has been completely changed.

While it may be uncomfortable for many to acknowledge, AI has undeniably become an integral part of our lives. Surveys indicate that around 70% of Gen Z have used generative AI tools, whether for educational use or work-related tasks. These tools behave like browsers, assistants, and productivity tools rolled into one. And they all require only natural language to kick start. It's not surprising that when Chat4data made its first debut at Product Hunt, it came as a Chrome extension, an AI agent that grows from the similar soil — Google browser.

As an online web scraper, Chat4data focuses on chat-first design with no code or GUI involved during the whole scraping process. Every step is prompted with natural language, including data field selection, field adding and deleting, pagination, etc. Token usage is efficient as it incurs only during site analysis, not data scraping.

Though Chat4Data is still in the early stages on its way to a more fluid, intuitive conversation experience, the road must be taken nonetheless. The company is devoted to building a true successor to traditional scrapers, and perhaps even the "public web database". In the future, users will no longer need to be concerned with where to find data—they'll simply chat with AI, which will automatically retrieve authoritative data from the entire web. While AI models like ChatGPT and Claude are already beginning to supplant traditional search engines, they still cannot provide users with real-time, accurate web data directly after receiving prompts. To address this, Lumoris is actively exploring solutions to overcome this limitation. Meanwhile, Chat4Data embodies the vision for the future of web data extraction—conversational, contextual, and built upon what users already know.

"But we might fail. Or we might succeed partially," said Luis. "But one thing is certain: In five years, web scraping will look nothing like today." At Lumoris, everyone embraces both the challenges and the opportunities AI brings to our lives. They are committed to bringing revolution to not just the tool they make but also the process of making it by utilizing AI tools such as Cursor for AI coding and Web Studio for rapid website iteration. It would be a fight that would speak for itself in the end.

"We are happy that the next-gen scraper is already being built. Whether it's Chat4Data or not." Said Luis.
