Setting up a Recurring Web Scraper to Find RFP Opportunities

·

Hi, what would be the best way to set up a table to scrape the web for active RFP postings with specific keywords in them and return the links? (Ideally this would be a recurring search to help us get notified of new RFP opportunities for our business when they arise)

do you have a table with all the websites?

Hi Juan, no. I’d likely have Claygent/OpenAI search the web for opportunities with certain keywords

Hey Whenever W.!! Happy to chip in here. Since Claygent is not necessarily a source you can use to import unique records from a list, the next best option would likely be to find a dedicated site that would continuously update or scrape google searches. We have the integration to start a list with a Google Search...Otherwise, you could find a scraper that runs on the regular and collects any new results and auto-imports into Clay. Apify seems to be a marketplace of these scrapers so perhaps there's an option there.Here's a post about Apify: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/outboundphd_clay-added-1514-data-sources-and-you-didnt-activity-7153428101748727810-qQ1d?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
