Would you like to Get Sheet Done?

Hey Indiehackers!

We are two co-founders based in Barcelona who just started Get Sheet Done! It's a Chrome extension that turns any website into a spreadsheet. Our goal is to build an easy-to-use, reliable, privacy-focused, and affordable alternative to similar tools. We plan to add more features in the future, such as integrations, data manipulation, and assistive AI.

You can check it out here: https://gsd.social/ih

It's our first business project, so we still have a lot to learn. We'd love your feedback on the marketing website, the project, and the offer itself. What do you think we could improve?

Enjoy hacking!
Cheers

    Congrats! cool design.

    Cool name 😅

    I like the concept, but my personal feel is the hero text is misleading. When I read it first, I thought about anything, but web scraper for non technical users. Correct me if I’m wrong but, in a nutshell, you are working on a web-scraper that doesn’t require coding, don’t you?

      Yes exactly.

      We wanted to be pretty straightforward in the hero, but perhaps we should mention that it's a no-code web scraper instead. We'll take a look at how to improve the copy. Thanks for the advice!

        Oh damn, I also didn't get that. Thanks for clarifying @sergeyk. Because if that's the case, I can quickly think of a cool product I might use your project for @ngryman

          Awesome, if you need any help let us know!

            I might actually have a pretty interesting use case for what you’ve made. it that could be beneficial to show on your site. Maybe we could collab. Do you wanna send me a DM on X just to chat for a sec?

    That name! ✨🥇

    Cool idea; I'd be interested in seeing use cases, examples, and/or ideas for practical ways to use it.

    1. 2

      Yes, that's what we're missing. There's a use cases section down the page but it's pretty boring right now 😅

      We're tempted to do something similar to Monday.com where the use cases are the first things on the landing page: https://monday.com/.

      Thanks for the feedback!

    Looks amazing to be honest
    But I sincerely don't understand what's the use case? Could you provide some examples?
    Is it like a parser that works with a chosen website?

    1. 1

      Thanks!

      But I sincerely don't understand what's the use case?

      Any manual task that requires you to extract data from a website could be a use case. For example: generating leads from social networks, monitoring prices, reviews, or anything really :) You can scroll down the landing page to see more use cases.
      What do you think we could improve on the website to make it clearer?

      Is it like a parser that works with a chosen website?

      Kind of!

      For now, you pick the elements on the page that you want to extract, such as a price, picture, name, link, .... The extension then knows where to find this data and extracts it for you automatically. It can also paginate or scroll.

      Soon, we gonna ship an AI to auto-detect the elements on the page, so it'll be even easier!

        No, I was just thinking in a more global scale. Like if a person needs to scrape 100 websites or scrape 500 twitter accounts. But okay, got your point!

        In my opinion using GPT's here would be a bit of a struggle due to inconsistent parsing results, since all websites are structured differently, with their own classes and so on

        But will be happy for you if you make it!

        1. 1

          Hi, co-founder here 👋

          Scrapping 100 different websites would require you to build 100 automations in our extension. It's doable, but clearly not the use case we optimize for right now. We're focusing on scrapping a small number of website(s) on a regular basis.

          Scrapping 500 Twitter accounts is definitely in this scope though! For example, you could search for tags on Twitter and scrape the latest tweets to get their author's profile link. We're gonna introduce "deep scrapping" soon, which will automatically follow these links and gather more details about the user.

          Thanks for the feedback, and good luck for you as well!

            Heya, okay cool

            Might be useful: keep in mind of a 1000 post view limit per day for non verified accounts before the account is suspended for a day on twitter (Had to deal with it my self too haha)

              Thanks for the info!
