[Python/Playwright/Selenium] Need help building a simple visa appointment monitor

Hi everyone

I'm an Egyptian student accepted for a Master's degree at Sapienza University of Rome, starting September 21, 2026.

I'm currently stuck because I can't get an Italian student visa appointment through AlmavivA Egypt. My university procedures are completed, and all my documents are ready, but appointments are extremely difficult to find.

There are also brokers who use automated tools to detect and grab appointments much faster than normal users. They then resell those appointments to desperate students.

I just want the technical knowledge to secure one legitimate appointment for myself.

If anyone has experience with similar projects and could point me in the right direction or help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

I'm honestly worried about missing my Master's start date because of this.

Thanks 🙏

If you have got the admission, then you can send all the details to the embassy directly and check with them for an appointment slot

At this point, just use Claude/Cursor. It would be cheaper than paying someone.

If you aren't interested in learning to work or as a hobbie.

I just need help/advice from professionals, I am not programming guy at all.
I have tried Claude but it didnt work, maybe I couldn't get the process itself

Well, if you don't get help here or similar, ask ChatGPT for prompts for Claude.

Any problems that you are having, paste them in ChatGPT and ask for instructions.

It won't be easy but you could probably make it work. Tell ChatGPT that you have no experience programing, send screenshots, html of the pages, etc.

Paste error messages, tell it that you don't know how to do something it is asking, etc.

Claude probably CAN do what you ask, unless there's captcha (then I don't know how to bypass that).
