A tool to extract structured content from a webpage by specifying css selectors. the tool navigates to the specified url, waits for the page to load (including parsing and executing javascript), and returns the selected elements in a structured json format.

Why this helps

Roadmap decisions need feature comparison, but manual competitor feature research is tedious and context-switching intensive

  • Automatically scrape competitor feature lists when you update your roadmap
  • Compare your roadmap against competitors instantly with structured data
  • Build searchable feature matrices updated in real time

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Browserless integrations to Notis
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When I update a feature issue, scrape competitor feature lists from [competitor URLs]'
  • 3Notis extracts structured feature data and compares against your roadmap
  • 4Set results to auto-save in Linear comments or email summaries to your team
  • 5Test by updating a feature status--Notis auto-scrapes and compares competitors

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis handle sites that block scraping?

Browserless includes anti-bot protection bypass, so most competitor sites work. Some may require special handling.

How current is the data?

Notis scrapes on each update, so your feature matrix is as current as your issue changes.

Can I compare more than one competitor?

Yes--add multiple competitor URLs to your automation, and Notis builds a comprehensive feature matrix.
