Host a web scraper that runs on a schedule
Run a scraper on schedule without spending time packaging browsers and system libraries around working code. Tokay detects Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, or a scraper built on requests and includes the runtime dependencies it needs.

Test the real scrape before scheduling it
You can verify the code in the hosted environment before relying on tomorrow's run. Paste or push the scraper, choose the schedule and timezone, then use Run Now to stream the first execution.
Tokay detects the language, packages, system dependencies, and environment variables from the source. A continuously running scraper can use a background Service instead of a schedule.
Failed runs tell you what changed
Tokay records every execution and its output, so a missing report has a concrete run to inspect. Incident email arrives when a working scraper starts failing, and a recovery email closes the incident after it succeeds again.
Copy for AI packages the code, error, and environment into a prompt for an assistant. Out-of-memory failures are identified directly instead of appearing as an empty log.
Scraped data has a durable destination
Files written to the Service's persistent data directory survive later runs and deploys. When the scraper expects Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, or Redis, Tokay creates the database in the Project and supplies the connection through the environment variable the code already reads.
A dashboard or API can run beside the scraper and use the same data.
Your AI agent can verify the selectors before reporting success
A coding agent like Claude Code or Codex can deploy and test the scraper without writing a browser container first. Through Tokay's GraphQL API, it can submit the source, provide secrets, set the cron schedule and timezone, trigger an immediate run, and read the output to confirm the scrape worked.
Point your agent to app.tokay.io/llms.txt for the deployment protocol.
Respect robots.txt and the terms of the sites you scrape.
