What's the most repetitive web extraction task you do in Google Sheets?
by•
I'm launching an AI-powered Google Sheets add-on next week that extracts data into columns from website URLs.
I'm curious how everyone currently collects web data in spreadsheets.
Are you copying and pasting?
Using IMPORTXML?
Writing scripts?
Using another tool?
I'd love to hear your workflow and biggest pain points.

@melvingeorge Which part of the workflow eats up the most time for you?

@niamh_byrne1 I was extracting a few urls and most time consuming part was going into website and looking into HTML selector of each data point in that website, Now with AI that is solved because i can instruct the LLM to do that part.
@melvingeorge Have you noticed users wanting structured data or just quick results?

@sebastian_patterson With Google Sheets users, I've noticed they mostly care about getting quick, clean results, they want the data extracted in seconds. Speed and clean output matter much more than having lots of customization options.
