Our Recommendations

Create Hidden Webpages

Utilize the power of our web scraping tool without having to surface information publicly on your website. By creating hidden pages on your website, you create a controlled environment that serves as a great data resource for your AI Chat to train from and curate content.

Real-World Examples: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, The Jockey Club

Create a List of Your URLs

We suggest making a list of the URLs you want to scrape and train in advance. Once you locate the popup on the first URL, keep your list handy and add more URLs by clicking the 'Add new URL' button. This way, you won't need to switch between pages and have complete control over the URLs you've already scraped.

Focus on What is Important

Don't attempt to scrape every web page you have! Focus your scraping efforts on web pages where your customers typically learn key information such as A-Z Guides, Things to Do, Directories, etc.

What to Avoid

Avoid scraping:

  • Web pages that are frequently updated (schedules, rosters, stats, etc.). In these cases, we recommend using a prewritten response.

  • Any third-party web pages you do not manage.

  • Web pages lacking rich content such as image-heavy pages, landing pages, etc.

Inspect for Quality

We always recommend that you not only review results from our scraping tool within the response library but also see how responses are generated and exposed within your chat.

FAQs

I'm not seeing my scraped responses and/or LLM volume in the dashboard

In the responses library, ensure that the filter is set to “company name LLM.” From there, data should change and reflect everything within the new experience

Is there any specific formatting required for emails/phone numbers in scraped data?

No! If your contact information is in a text format and written clearly (ex. [email protected] or #-###-###-####) it will be surfaced to users in generated responses.

Can I scrape text from PDFs, images and/or web banners?

Unfortunately, this content cannot be scraped. If you'd like to include this data to create generated responses, we suggest creating a documented response

Can multiple people from my team scrape the website using the same popup?

Yes! If the page is already scraped, a message will trigger that it’s already listed, and a page refresh will be triggered

How many pages can I scrape?

You can scrape as many web pages as you need; however, we typically recommend scraping between 10-30 total depending on your website

Does the chat ever pull in information from beyond our scraped webpages?

No! Responses are only generated from information scraped from websites by you

Can I scrape any webpage I want?

Avoid scraping web pages that you do not manage, as their information may go against your organization's policies and procedures

My chat is not prompting me to login when I enter !login

You may already be logged in! Check for the asterisk in your chat's text container. If it's there, that means you're logged in. Type !commands and continue scraping.

If you still experience an issue logging into admin mode, reach out to our Product Support team by clicking the Click Here For More Support button in the header and asking for a live agent!

The popup doesn’t load on a page I'm trying to scrape

Load the popup on a different page and perform the “Add New URL” command instead and enter the URL

I'm unable to scan my web page because the URL is not reachable

No worries! Submit a service request and we can assist!

If my website is updated, will it automatically update my scraped response?

As the information on your website changes, this is not automatically reflected in your scraped data. Rescrape the updated webpage to ensure your chat is properly trained and creating up-to-date responses for users

What if I have pages on other languages, should I scrape them?

No, you need to only scrape pages in English language. If you have other languages as add-ons, we will make sure to set the content in the second language for you

How can I check the exact URL the content is scraped from?

Locate the url_ response and click on Notes button

When I try to scrape my website, I get an http 500 error
