Kapow OnDemand Visual Point-and-Click Development

no codingKapow OnDemand’s Design Studio allows you to visually create Robots that perform surgical extraction and transformation of data from any website (or web application) and turn them into automated data services. Design Studio provides powerful data formatting capabilities to provide structure according to your defined standards. With Design Studio you can even pass input parameters to automatically fill out forms. You can also extract data from HTML, XML, PDF, videos and other common web formats - all with no coding.

Kapow OnDemand System Integration

Kapow OnDemand Robots are deployed as secure web services e.g. REST, WADL, RSS, CSV, JSON and XML. These services can be automatically discovered and consumed by desktop tools like Microsoft Excel, or any rich internet application and mashup building tools like IBM Mashup Center, IBM Rational EGL, JackBe, CastIron, Boomi and Wavemaker as well as any standard RSS reader.

Kapow OnDemand Fast, Simple Approach

Kapow OnDemand delivers unparalleled productivity through automated web data services, for data integration projects e.g. data consolidation and data virtualization. If your goal is to access and collect third-party web data and related metadata and business logic, Kapow OnDemand offers a superior approach to costly hand coding or the even more time consuming manual cut-and-paste. Kapow OnDemand Robots can be created and deployed in a matter of minutes – completely eliminating your problems with fragile, labor intensive Web crawling scripts written in PERL or Python, or low-end macro-recording Web Scraping desktop tools.
