Track competitor prices and contacts into Google Sheets
A Claude-powered scraper agent monitors competitor sites hourly, pulling pricing, company details and contacts into Google Sheets, replacing manual research.
Done with a custom-built or unnamed agent
- What they did
- Built a scraper that monitors competitor websites hourly and tracks price changes plus extracts product data automatically. Claude AI pulls contact info, pricing, and company details straight into Google Sheets. Person set up the scraper and lets it run without further input.
- How it went
- Competitor research now takes 2 minutes instead of 10-15 hours monthly. Updates occur every hour automatically.
- Worth knowing
- Comment "SCRAPE" while following the poster to receive the setup via DM.
Try it yourself with n8n
Build a workflow that runs every [hour or day], visits these competitor sites: [list of URLs], and extracts product prices, company details, and contact info. Append the results to a Google Sheet called [sheet name], with a column showing any price change since the last run. The job is complete when the workflow runs end to end once and the sheet fills with correct rows. Ask me before enabling the schedule.
