Hi, I'm Aleksei.

I build production-grade web scrapers and write code-heavy tutorials about data extraction, web automation, and AI-assisted research. This blog is where I share what works in real projects — not what works in slide decks.

What I do

• Apify actors: 31 published actors (78 total in portfolio) on the Apify Store covering Trustpilot, Reddit, email extraction, and dozens of other targets. View store →
• Sponsored technical articles: deep tutorials with working Python examples, real benchmarks, and clear takeaways. Recent paid series for a proxy provider — 3 articles, $150 pilot rate.
• Custom scraping & AI research: bespoke data extraction pipelines, custom actors, and AI-research deliverables for clients who need a specific dataset, not a generic tool.

How I work

• Code-first: every recommendation comes with a runnable example.
• Honest benchmarks: if a method takes 4 hours and 2 GB of RAM, that's what I report.
• Async-only collaboration: written briefs, screen-recorded walkthroughs, no live calls.

Pricing

Pilot rate: $100 for one article, or $150 for a three-article series. After the first delivery, returning clients move to standard $200–300 per article.
