Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Catalogue Scraper tool:

  1. Provide the catalogue URL and the editorial format you need — comparison table, buying guide, or feature matrix.
  2. Ask ChatGPT to run `scrape_catalogue` to pull the full product set with specifications.
  3. Have ChatGPT normalize the spec fields and produce the comparison in your chosen format.
  4. Add a short editorial summary recommending the right product for common use cases.

Example Prompt

Try this with ChatGPT using the Catalogue Scraper tool
Use catalogue-scraper to extract products from https://retailer.com/monitors. Produce (1) a Markdown comparison table with the specs that matter most for monitors (panel type, refresh rate, resolution, size, HDR), (2) a buying guide paragraph for three use cases — gaming, creative work, office — recommending a specific product for each.

Tips

  • Pick the 4-6 specs that matter most for the category and drop the rest — too many columns makes the table unreadable.
  • Ask for the buying guide with specific use-case recommendations — generic 'best overall' framings underperform use-case specific ones.
  • Request Markdown or HTML output directly so the result slots into a CMS without reformatting.
