This n8n workflow transforms your sales prospecting process by automating the collection of rich company data. Feed it a list of companies (and their corresponding Google Sheet row numbers), and it springs into action. Using an advanced AI agent, the workflow navigates company websites, intelligently extracts specific data points like market, pricing plans, LinkedIn URLs, key features (API, free trials, enterprise plans), integrations, and even case study links. All this structured information is then seamlessly written back to your Google Sheet, empowering your sales team with accurate, up-to-date insights for more personalized and effective outreach.

Specify the Spreadsheet ID and Sheet Name where you want the extracted data to be written. Ensure the column names in your sheet match the output fields defined in the workflow (e.g.,
domain,market,linkedinUrl,cheapest_plan, etc.). - Customize AI Output (Optional): If you need to extract different or additional data points, modify the
inputSchemain the 'Structured Output Parser' node to define your desired output structure for the AI. - Execute and Monitor: Run the workflow. The AI will visit company websites, intelligently extract the defined information, and update your Google Sheet rows accordingly.
