via “domain-specific structured data extraction with parsing”

** - Scrape websites with Oxylabs Web API, supporting dynamic rendering and parsing for structured data extraction.

Unique: Provides domain-specific parsing logic for popular websites (Amazon, Google, etc.) while falling back to generic heuristic-based extraction for unknown domains. Exposes structured extraction as a parameter (parse=true) rather than requiring separate API calls.
