I emulate user behavior, extract data and protect information. I take projects from idea to release.

I recently wrote about how Robotex works. It’s my microservice that takes over all the browser work: it gets past anti-bot protection, runs a scenario on the page and hands your bot the cookies. Now it has a home of its own: robotex.sokolab.xyz.

Why a separate page
#

A blog post is good for explaining how something works. But a project needs a place where you can quickly see what it is and why, get access and ask a question. So each of my projects will get its own subdomain with a landing page, and the blog will cover what’s new.

Free
#

Robotex will be a free service. You only pay for your own proxies and, if needed, captcha recognition in 2captcha.

It’s an early MVP for now, so I grant access manually. Register in my Redmine, I’ll approve the account and send you the API address.

Where to discuss
#

The project has its own section in Redmine:

  • a forum for questions, ideas and scenario discussions
  • issues for bugs and feature requests
  • news and plans

If it’s more convenient, message me on Telegram.

The source code is still open: git.sokolab.xyz/s0k0l/robotex.
