Product extraction benchmark (Zyte)
Short name: LB-ZPE.
Product extraction benchmark was published by Zyte in 2021. This Hub repository distributes its 140 archived product pages and original references. Lexmount maintains the distribution and a separately identified annotation supplement; it is not the original dataset author. The original source URL and full upstream commit remain part of every release.
Each task asks an extractor to return price, SKU and stock status from the same frozen HTML. The source URL records provenance; requesting the live website changes the input.
Population and references
| Viewer group | Source suite | Tasks | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
zyte-products-140 |
zyte-products-140 |
140 | All 140 upstream frozen product pages, original labels and separately identified source-qualified annotations |
The upstream source is pinned to commit
cba97d7a8d42aeefd4021bc15d482f297faceaa3. All 140 compressed HTML files and the
original ground-truth JSON retain their upstream bytes. The runtime manifest
also binds the decompressed HTML, original evaluator and license.
Each viewer record contains the source URL, compressed HTML path, HTML hash,
original reference, and separate source_qualified_reference. The latter
amends 47 fields on 36 pages following a complete model-assisted source audit.
It is an additional annotation view, not a second population or human gold.
The original reference remains the default for reproducing the upstream score.
Reference corrections retain the old
and accepted values, literal source excerpts, locators and reasons. Provider
outputs, model judgments and measured scores are not part of this dataset.
The original references contain 134 nonempty price fields, 135 nonempty SKU fields and 140 stock labels, including nine out-of-stock labels. The source-qualified view has 134 price fields, 140 SKU fields and 140 stock labels, including 11 out-of-stock labels. Missing values are meaningful and must not become zero prices or automatic in-stock outputs. The original evaluator's stock convention and identifier matching must be retained when reproducing its results.
Load frozen inputs
Select a full Hugging Face commit and keep it with the evaluated outputs:
import gzip
import json
from pathlib import Path
from datasets import load_dataset
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
revision = "YOUR_FULL_HF_COMMIT"
rows = load_dataset(
"Lexmount/zyte-product-extraction-benchmark", "zyte-products-140",
split="test", revision=revision,
)
task = json.loads(rows[0]["task"])
snapshot = Path(snapshot_download(
"Lexmount/zyte-product-extraction-benchmark", repo_type="dataset", revision=revision,
allow_patterns=["definitions/**", "manifest.json", "LICENSE", "NOTICE", "THIRD_PARTY.md"],
))
html = gzip.decompress((snapshot / "definitions" / task["html_path"]).read_bytes())
reference = task["reference"]
Browser Eval uses the shared immutable dataset cache and data lock:
git clone https://github.com/lexmount/browser-eval
cd browser-eval
git checkout 7f010e7617b6ac6a6df366495480af9ac92e4840
uv sync --frozen --extra web-scraper-eval
make pin-dataset DATASET=web-scraper REV=YOUR_FULL_HF_COMMIT
uv run --frozen python -m harness.benchmarks.data web-scraper
uv run --frozen python -m harness.web_scraper.cli prepare
The download verifies the archive and every file. A verified cache works offline
with HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1. Historical upstream predictions are fetched separately
only by reproduce; they are not extraction inputs. Preparation does not call any
extraction provider or require an API key.
Evaluation
Use the original evaluator's per-field precision, recall and F1 for price, SKU and stock. Report out-of-stock recognition separately because the original population is dominated by in-stock pages. Keep transport failures in the predeclared denominator. A structured JSON response alone does not establish field correctness.
Record latency for every logical result, physical retry time separately, and native usage or actual charges where available. API tiers, input limits and billing units differ. This dataset defines extraction inputs and references; it contains no vendor ranking. Browser Eval's execution guide describes native HTML/URL routes and certification.

| Original 140 archived pages, ground truth, evaluator, README and upstream extractor | Zyte, MIT, Copyright (c) 2021 Zyte | LICENSE and original upstream license |

The two Hub license badges describe different components. They do not offer a choice to relicense Zyte's original material or the captured websites. The upstream project released its dataset with an MIT notice; this distribution retains that notice and does not independently establish training or redistribution rights for every website asset. Annotation amendments do not replace the original labels.

LexBench-Web-Fetch and LexBench-WebMainBench cover different retrieval and main-content extraction tasks with separate metrics.
Public HTML snapshots
snapshots.json binds every page ID to its SHA-256 and an immutable public deployment. Native extraction APIs receive fixture_base + '/' + id; the original HTML files remain in this repository.
Original files are authoritative. Publication verifies the declared dataset version and complete input inventory before adding this binding. Changed HTML requires a new deployment and a new HF commit; previous files and deployment URLs remain available. Pin the full HF commit for evaluation and verify page hashes before and after calls. A mismatch stops collection rather than silently replacing the input. The navigation index does not host dataset HTML.
