Pilot
Validate one workflow
Run a representative source sample and inspect both usable results and exceptions. Agree on acceptance criteria before expanding.
Crawl / Enterprise Knowledge Bases
Organize approved website content into a maintainable knowledge base
Collect scoped company documentation and public resources, then review and organize the content around your team's information needs.
- Agree on sources and content owners
- Crawl the approved documentation scope
- Review and publish to your knowledge system

Who uses Enterprise Knowledge Bases
Collect scoped company documentation and public resources, then review and organize the content around your team's information needs.
01
Knowledge managers
Define the business question and review the collected evidence.
02
Support operations
Use a repeatable process to compare the observations that matter.
03
Internal search teams
Connect reliable inputs to the product or research workflow.
04
Integration owners
Map the source output into your existing application and validate required fields.
05
Workflow operators
Monitor exceptions, maintain collection context and review incomplete runs.
Why this workflow breaks at scale
Design around the failure modes that affect a usable business outcome.
Failure 01
The context gets lost
Unclear ownership turns a content import into another stale repository. Assign review responsibility before publishing imported material.
Keep comparable observationsFailure 02
A run ends without a usable result
A completed crawl can still omit important paths or include irrelevant ones. Reconcile discovered pages with scope and coverage expectations.
Validate the actual outcomeFailure 03
The next team cannot verify the result
Preserve source context and reviewable evidence alongside the result. Define who handles incomplete records before production collection.
Make the handoff traceableThe data your workflow can use
Keep the collection layer and the normalized business record clearly defined.
- document_url
- Source or destination reference retained for traceability.
- topic
- Topic assigned by your content organization process.
- owner
- Team responsible for reviewing the retained document.
- review_date
- Relevant timestamp or date; retain the source timezone where applicable.

Recursive website collection with supported content formats such as Markdown, HTML, links and screenshots.
Example in practice. Consolidate approved public help pages into a reviewed support knowledge collection.
How this workflow runs
A focused sequence from approved input to a verified result.
- 01
Agree on sources and content owners
Start with: Approved sites, content owners and topic boundaries. Define the minimum usable result before collection.
- 02
Crawl the approved documentation scope
Recursive website collection with supported content formats such as Markdown, HTML, links and screenshots. Record failures and partial results separately.
- 03
Review and publish to your knowledge system
In-scope coverage, duplicate rate and retained document quality. Retain evidence for records that enter the next stage.
Built for the way your team works
Product capabilities support the workflow; your application defines what success means.
- Seed → scope → pages
Collect within a defined scope
Use recursive collection for selected website areas. Start with a small scope and review discovered pages before expanding the crawl.
- Markdown · HTML · links
Choose useful output formats
Crawl supports content formats including Markdown, HTML, links and screenshots. Select the formats required by your consuming application.
- Page → document → source
Keep source identity
Associate each retained document with its URL and capture context. Your pipeline can then maintain versioning and source-linked citations.
- Filter → deduplicate → publish
Prepare content downstream
Apply your own deduplication, content filters and quality checks before indexing or training. Collecting a page is the beginning of dataset preparation.
Plan the cost of your workflow
Crawl documentation describes browser runtime and proxy traffic as cost drivers. Scope, rendering needs and output formats affect consumption.
