Web Browsing

In today's data-driven world, the ability to quickly and accurately extract information from the web is crucial for businesses to stay competitive. Our service offers a sophisticated web browsing capability integrated seamlessly into our Custom Tasks, providing companies with a powerful tool for web scraping AI and extracting precise data in a structured format.

How it works#

PromptLoop allows you to build AI systems that can extract specific data from websites.

This can include:

• Finding company websites
• Finding specific pages on websites with (pricing/blogs/customers)
• Pulling out formatted data

Setting up#

You can copy a template or use the form to create a task for your data needs. You'll want an understanding of what the inputs will be (often a website or domain) and what the output columns you are looking for are. The form allows you to specify types for each item as well.

Running Tests#

You can immediately enter and input and run results right in your account. When you are satisfied and don't need further edits, you can upload your spreadsheet with a column that has the relevant inputs (whatever the task requires).

Viewing Data#

Once your dataset is run on the web task, you will be able to view all results right in the datasets tab and search, filter and save versions.

Tips and Tricks#

Designing an effective task depends on your end goal. This includes the tolerance for errors, importance of formatting, and how varying your input sites are.

• Focus - its best to set up tasks for specific purposes and only ask for the data you need.
• Formatting - PromptLoop Models will automatically and strictly format data for you, select the correct format for each output.
• Testing and Versions - It may take a few quick edits to get a task to work well. This is simple when using the editor and versions are always saved for future edits

Search Items#

Once a task is created, you will have the ability to tweak and edit instructions to optimize the results for your needs. Edits are broken up into the query used to find info an any additional instructions needed. In general we find these guidelines help our models extract relevant info.

Setting up effective search items is the start of most web extraction tasks. Whether you copy a template, start with the basic web task, or create your own, you will see an editor to select what items you are getting back.

Formatting#

Formatting allows you to collect data in exactly the format that you need. This includes pulling out website links, raw text, or numbers. You can also add additional instructions on top of formatting for more specific preferences.

Search Engine tricks#

Using web search engines instead of websites as a starting point for a task opens up a variety of powerful options. There are some nuances that can yield better results when selecting one or more links from a search to return.

Common Examples

• Find a company website from its name
• Find a linkedIn Profile of a specific person or title
• Find or summarize recent news articles about a topic or company

Query Options You can use standard search engine techniques within PromptLoop tasks. Here are a few that can work well.

site:name-of-site.com This will ensure results are ONLY from this specific site

-site:name-of-site.com This will EXCLUDE the site you include

apples AND oranges This will include results that appear for BOTH search terms limiting results

Why Leverage Our Web Browsing Capability#

Accuracy, Visibility, and Flexibility#

Our web browsing technology is engineered for speed. It allows you to navigate through multiple web pages in a fraction of the time it would take using traditional methods. This means you can quickly gather the data you need, making the most of your time and resources.

We run optimized resources to find the information you need directly from relevant sources. This allows for up-to-date, proprietary data delivered precisely in your required format. Because we leverage language models to navigate pages and identify relevant information, we can handle thousands of formats from millions of company page types, all at speeds unmatched by alternatives, including human-led research.

Unlike generative AI chat applications, PromptLoop uses models and techniques tuned to deliver accurate and formatted results only from trusted and provided sources. Without a source, we will not generate text for information, providing repeatable and reliable answers.

Scalable Solutions#

Whether you're looking to scrape data from a handful of web pages or perform Excel web scraping on a massive scale, our service is designed to scale with your needs. Our robust infrastructure ensures stability and performance, even when your data requirements grow exponentially.

We allow you to upload entire datasets to enrich using a CSV file or Excel file using the Datasets tool. This allows non-technical teams to create tasks to find precise information from company or entity websites and return formatted web scraping results for a bespoke dataset.

Precision and Customization#

Our web browsing feature is not just about accessing the web—it's about retrieving data with precision. With it, you can specify the data format you need, whether it's Booleans, direct answers to questions, or other specific data types that standard datasets may not provide.
