Olostep × Zapier

Add scraping and AI research to any Zap

Connect Olostep to Zapier's visual builder to scrape URLs, run grounded AI answers, process large URL lists, crawl sites, and map links with no code.

The verified Olostep Zapier app adds web scraping, AI-powered answers, batch jobs, crawls, and site maps to Zapier workflows, so teams can automate research and data collection across 8,000+ apps.

Capabilities

What you get from the verified Olostep app

Your web data toolkit inside Zapier

Olostep brings scraping, AI answers, batch processing, crawls, and maps into Zapier's action picker so you can automate web workflows without custom code.

  • Five actions in one app: Scrape Website, Ask AI Answer, Batch Scrape URLs, Create Crawl, and Create Map.

  • Connect outputs to 8,000+ apps like Slack, Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, and HubSpot.

  • Browser-grade rendering handles JavaScript-heavy pages and returns LLM-ready output formats.

  • Batch, crawl, and map workflows scale from a single URL to large asynchronous jobs.

Frequently asked questions

Product & Capabilities

  • In Zapier, add Olostep as an action step, click Sign in to Olostep, and paste your API key from olostep.com/dashboard. Once connected, the credential can be reused across future Zaps.

  • The verified app includes five actions: Scrape Website, Ask AI Answer, Batch Scrape URLs, Create Crawl, and Create Map.

Usage & Automation

  • Batch, crawl, and map are asynchronous jobs. Save the returned ID (batch_id, crawl_id, or map_id), then retrieve results in a delayed follow-up step or second Zap.

  • Use Batch Scrape URLs instead of looping many single scrapes, and rely on hosted output URLs for large payloads rather than passing full page content through every step.

Pricing & Plans

  • Copy your API key directly from olostep.com/dashboard with no extra spaces and reconnect the account if needed. For empty content, increase wait-before-scrape for JS-heavy pages and confirm the URL is publicly accessible.
