Limitations
Analog works best when a page presents useful content as repeated records. Structured output is currently least reliable on:
- Restaurant menus. Output can come out garbled or oddly split.
- Discussion threads (Hacker News comments, forums, Reddit). Nested replies extract poorly, and tables inside posts can garble.
- Some table-like layouts. A section that reads as a table on screen can come out garbled.
- Social feeds and walls. Records can come out ragged, with uneven fields from item to item.
- Very long feeds. Only part of a very long feed may be captured; the result says how far it got.
Expected boundaries
Section titled “Expected boundaries”JavaScript-heavy pages are not a limitation by themselves: the built-in browser renders them by default. A site that blocks automated visitors is different from a weak extraction; Analog reports the block as the result and stops. See Privacy & security.
Report a result
Section titled “Report a result”A quality report is useful whether or not the page type appears above: the Feedback guide explains the symptom labels and submission routes.
