Where to Start with Hexomatic? Try This One Workflow This Weekend
If you’ve heard about Hexomatic but don’t really know what to do with it — you’re not alone.
A lot of people sign up and ask the same questions:
Where do I begin?
What’s the best first use case?
What exactly does Hexomatic even do?
So let’s break it down.
🧠 What is Hexomatic, in plain language?
Imagine all the stuff you do (or avoid doing) in your browser:
Searching on Google
Clicking links
Copy-pasting info
Comparing products
Looking for emails or prices
Building spreadsheets
Now imagine you could hand off those tasks to a smart assistant — and just get the final result delivered to your Google Sheet or as a CSV file.
That’s what Hexomatic does.
It automates your web tasks — so you don’t have to.
You create a workflow, which is just a set of steps (like: search → extract → organize), and Hexomatic runs it for you, at scale.
🗂️ What do I get at the end?
Always the same thing: a clean file with the data you need.
That could be:
A list of websites with emails and social links
A price comparison table
A collection of Google search results
Product listings from Amazon or Etsy
Job listings, blog articles, podcast links — whatever you set it up to find
🧩 “But I don’t know what to look for…”
Here’s a trick:
If you wanted to find something manually, you’d probably just Google it.
Now ask yourself:
What if I need more of that thing — dozens, hundreds, or thousands of results — and don’t want to do it by hand?
That’s where Hexomatic shines.
Let’s walk through some real examples.
✅ Starter Example: Google Search at Scale
Let’s say you want to find:
Podcasts that interview startup founders
Agencies that build Shopify stores
Sites that mention your competitor
Lists of local service providers in Florida
Normally, you’d Google a few phrases, open some links, copy things over.
Instead:
Ask ChatGPT to generate a list of 20–30 relevant Google search phrases.
Go to Hexomatic.
Create a Google Search Scraper workflow. Paste your phrases.
Hit run.
🎉 You’ll have a full spreadsheet of relevant results with titles, URLs, and descriptions — ready to review, filter, or take action on.
🧲 Other Easy Use Cases to Try This Weekend
Here are 3 more ideas you can try — each takes less than 30 minutes:
🔍 Lead Generation
Looking for clients in a niche market?
Use the Google Maps Scraper to find local businesses (like “med spas in Miami” or “grill installers in Texas”).
Or scrape business directories for keywords like “eco-friendly skincare brand.”
You’ll get a list of businesses with names, websites, phone numbers and addresses.
🛠️ Data Enrichment
Already have a list of websites or companies?
Add a Tech Stack Lookup to see what tools they use.
Use the Contact Info Finder to pull in emails and social profiles.
Add Social Profile Detection to find LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.
Paste your list into Hexomatic and let it enrich your data automatically.
📦 Product or Competitor Research
Want to compare Etsy shops or Amazon sellers?
Use the Web Scraper to grab product names, prices, reviews, or tags.
Filter results later in a spreadsheet to spot patterns or opportunities.
This saves hours of browsing — and gives you a complete dataset to analyze.
🧪 Bonus: Monitor Pages with Hexowatch
Instead of checking a page every day for updates, use Hexowatch (integrated with Hexomatic) to:
Monitor job listings
Track price changes
Get alerts when a competitor updates something on their site
Set it once — get notified when it matters.
🎯 Final Thought: Try One Thing This Weekend
Here’s your invitation:
Pick one small task, and run your first workflow this weekend.
It could be:
Searching for potential clients
Researching podcast opportunities
Finding suppliers or service providers
Enriching a spreadsheet you already have
You’ll go from “I wonder if I can…” to “I just got 3000 results in 5 minutes.”
No coding. No browsing. Just results.
Start small. Run one workflow. You’ll be hooked.
