BotQL - Features

BotQL is a web based instant bot creator. Bot is also called as agent, crawler, robot or wanderer. Bot is a software program, which on given instructions and directions, works independently and intelligently without depending upon any human interaction to bring sought results. It can be scheduled to run daily or other schedules.

Created Bot will activiate on given timings, do assigned tasks independently and intelligently, and send a report of task outcome by email [to owner of Bot creator] and close function sooner assigned task is over.

BotQL has following features:

  • Creates Bots instantly.
  • Modify Bot any point of time.
  • Give any number of starting URLs.
  • Facility to give Comprehensive search parameters.
  • Configure Bot to search either URL itself or the web-page content or both.
  • Bot can search daily or any other configurable schedule.
  • Sends email when web page or URL found haviny key-words as given in parameter.
Features do not end here - other wonderful features include - no duplicate pages/link are produced, if user got say 15 results first time, next day/time user will get only new results if any (not 15+2 = 17 but only 2). In technology language it is also called delta or incremental results. User can also see one result per domain.

Internet contents are increasing with unprecedented speed. Thousands of domains and Tons of content are being added on internet web everyday.

It is not easy to find content or URLs of individual's interest by mining through these Gibabytes of information, and that too without investing good deal of time. It is not easy today and it would not be tomorrow. Apparently, there are three issues to address:

  • To search through tons of Gigabytes of information.
  • To find through "fresh" information. Example: You want to know when a company won a contract from their web site by searching through company's press release section.
  • Time consumption to search information, once or every day for same type of information.
BotQL fills this gap. User can create Bot instantly over the web via BotQL. In the process, user tells what URL(s) to begin search and what information to find by giving key-words [one can use all possible complex combination of words] within webpages(s) and/or URL(s). Tell frequency to search such as daily or other. Then Bot starts functioning at specific time and does it task, if and when sought information is found by the Bot, user is notified by email. In turn - user saved time, personal time, going page after pages in searching the same information.

Remember - it is not a search engine. It does not contain a database of web pages. Rather it goes from URL-to-URL on real-time basis, looking for specific [combination of] words and "fresh" information.

Last, it is not a tool to extract email addresses, gif/jpg or video/audio files, or adult contents.

The bots/agents created via BotQL works for user every day religiously!
