Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 5, Documentation: 6, Utility: 7)

Ricci Flow is a Chrome extension that uses AI models (like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to visually understand web pages and extract structured data into CSV, Excel, or JSON without requiring coding or CSS selectors. It's interesting because it attempts to democratize web scraping by replacing traditional tools like Selenium or BeautifulSoup with a point-and-click AI interface, targeting non-technical users in sales, e-commerce, and research.

Target audience: non-technical users, sales teams, e-commerce managers, researchers, growth teams
