Pieter Levels Struggles Building Google SERP Scraper

Pieter Levels posted about weeks of attempts to create his own scraping tool comparable to ScrapingBee. He explained that AI has repeatedly indicated it cannot complete the required functionality. The main requirement involves pulling search engine results pages from Google for his Hotelist project. Even after adding residential IP proxies, CAPTCHA solving services, and OpenSERP, the tool fails to handle thousands of queries without getting blocked. Levels described the persistent issue as part of his solo development process for data collection needs.
