Description
Hey everyone! After struggling a lot with data enrichment for SMBs, I launched a Google Sheets add-on that gives you direct access to an AI-powered webscraper.Vurge lets you get structured information from any website right inside your Google Sheet, eliminating the need for learning a new tool or adding a new dependency for data enrichment.Let me know what you think!

Could you build this?
Yes The product is a Google Sheets Apps Script add-on that calls web-scraping and LLM enrichment APIs to output structured cell data. A solo builder can quickly vibe code this by pairing Google Apps Script with Firecrawl or scraping proxies and OpenAI/Anthropic APIs.
