The problem it solves

You need to track what's being said online about a topic, competitor, or market, but sorting through raw search results and copying details into a spreadsheet by hand is tedious and error-prone. Every new search means starting the manual cleanup all over again.

Who it fits

Market researchers, SEO analysts, and teams who need organized search insights without manual data entry.

How it works

  1. You enter a search query and choose the type of results to pull, like news, images, or videos
  2. The system runs the search and retrieves the raw results
  3. AI reads the results and pulls out structured details like title, source, and summary
  4. The structured data is saved to Google Sheets for the team to review
What you get

Search insights organized before you dig in

Your search results arrive as clean, organized rows of titles, sources, and summaries ready for your team to explore in a spreadsheet.

What you get

A clean, organized spreadsheet of search results ready for analysis or sharing.

What you need

A Bright Data account, a Google Gemini API key, and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
