How Olostep + viaSocket works
Olostep provides the web data layer. It can search the web, scrape websites, crawl pages, and return structured information that can be used in your workflows.
viaSocket provides the automation layer. It connects Olostep to the rest of your business tools and determines what should happen with that data next.
Together, they let you build workflows such as:
Web data → Process → Enrich → Store → Notify → Take action
This means your web research doesn't have to stop at data collection. It can automatically trigger the next step in your business process.
