Automatically crawl a website and collect every page's content

Follows links from a starting webpage, saves each page's content, and keeps going deeper for research or content projects.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats new links queued for crawling; runs once per one per queued page link.

Pattern: Structured Loop (21) ยท Multiple Instances with a priori Run-Time Knowledge (14)

The problem it solves

Manually visiting page after page to copy content for research or competitive analysis takes forever, and it's easy to miss pages buried a few clicks deep. You end up with an incomplete, disorganized pile of notes.

Who it fits

Researchers, marketers, or lead-gen teams who need to collect content from many linked pages on a website.

How it works

  1. You add a starting web address to a Google Sheet
  2. The automation visits the page and saves its content to a document
  3. It finds new links on that page and adds them back to the sheet
  4. It repeats the process for as many rounds as you choose
  5. You end up with a document full of collected page content
What you get

Site content collected without clicking every link

You get the content from every linked page on a website collected automatically into a single document.

What you get

A document containing the collected content from every page it visited.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and an Airtop 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.
