Crawler, search, SEO intelligence, and business evidence extraction prototype.
AI-assisted brand, SEO, and business audits need reliable evidence.
Without a crawler/index layer, AI recommendations can become disconnected from the actual website, metadata, content structure, internal links, headings, trust signals, and page-level context.
StretchSearch Lite is the public proof layer for a responsible web-intelligence system that gathers structured evidence before generating recommendations.
StretchSearch Lite is planned to prototype:
- URL intake;
- authorized page fetching;
- metadata extraction;
- heading and content extraction;
- internal/external link mapping;
- SEO signal collection;
- business evidence extraction;
- structured page summaries;
- recommendation inputs for audit systems.
Do not ask AI to guess what a website says. Crawl, extract, structure, and cite evidence first.
- Accept a target URL or domain.
- Confirm the crawl is authorized and within scope.
- Fetch pages with rate limits and responsible boundaries.
- Extract metadata, headings, links, copy, and page signals.
- Store normalized page records.
- Generate structured summaries and findings.
- Pass findings into audit, content, or evaluation workflows.
| Component | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| URL intake | Capture crawl target and constraints |
| Crawl policy | Define allowed scope, depth, and rate limits |
| Fetcher | Retrieve pages responsibly |
| Extractor | Parse title, meta, headings, links, copy, and schema signals |
| Index/store | Persist page records and extracted evidence |
| Analyzer | Identify SEO, content, and business signals |
| AI summary layer | Generate reviewable summaries from extracted evidence |
- Python crawler service.
- TypeScript / Next.js review UI concepts.
- PostgreSQL or file-based prototype storage.
- Structured JSON extraction outputs.
- Markdown or HTML summary reports.
- Future integration with brand-audit and evaluation systems.
Crawler behavior should respect:
- authorization and ownership boundaries;
- robots and site policies where applicable;
- rate limits;
- no credentialed/private content unless explicitly authorized;
- clear separation between evidence extraction and AI recommendation generation.
StretchSearch Lite can feed:
- StretchBAS-style brand audits;
- SEO/content reviews;
- AI evaluation fixtures;
- support/documentation indexing;
- business-intelligence summaries;
- future retrieval and knowledge systems.
Public proof repository. Documentation-first prototype. Deeper implementation work should be built incrementally and verified with responsible crawl constraints.
