0:00 Hi, I'm Alex and I've built Pars, which allows you to get data from anywhere on the internet in seconds. Pars allows you to put in any website and any task and will automatically build a reusable API that can interact with this website in seconds, not minutes. So, why did I build this? I originally got to software engineering when I was 12 years old because I wanted to buy limited edition sneakers that would sell out in seconds and realized the only way to do this was with a bot and I didn't have enough money to buy a bot. I taught myself how to code and reverse engineer websites to build a bot. Ever since then, I've been

And more recently, I've been frustrated with the current web automation tools on the market due to how slow and costly they are. So, 5 weeks ago, I set out to build Pars, which has required many sleepless nights uh of building and obsessing over performance gains. And two days ago, I released it. Um, within the first 36 hours, I had over 500 developers sign up and build over a thousand scrapers with Pars that have already interacted with 100,000 web pages across the internet.
