If youโre a regular Grepsr app user, you may have noticed a slightly modified navigation bar with some new icons at the top of the Grepsr data extraction platform.

Previously, all projects would be listed in one place. Now, to make things simpler and more streamlined, weโve separated the app into two parts based on how projects are created:
- Grepsr for Chrome
- Grepsr Concierge

Grepsr forย Chrome
Ourย Chrome extensionย is your first line of contact with us. When you install the extension, sign up and build a project, the project gets saved under your account into the app where you can view the data being collected in real-time.
In the app, this is where the projects youโve created using the browser extension are located. Theyโre marked with a small grey Chrome icon on the projects list as shown in the screenshot below.

Grepsr Concierge
The core concept ofย Grepsr Conciergeย is to provideย data as a service.
As powerful as the Chrome extension is, its capabilities are still limited in some cases where a website is poorly structured, inconsistently laid out or designed, etc.
Itโs exactly for such situations that weโve built the concierge service. You just need toย detail your projects requirementsย via email or ourย contact formย by specifying:
- URL(s) (with search parametersโโโkeywords, locations, etc.โโโwhere applicable)
- Data field(s) to extract
- Frequency of the extraction
Alternatively, in case youย already have a Grepsr account, simply create a new project using the button at the top right when youโre on the Concierge section of the app. In theย resulting page,ย fill out the formย with your project requirements and submit!

We know youโre busy, so while you take care of other things, leave the data sourcing to us. Our team of specialists will set up the project on your behalf, run the extraction and deliver the data as soon as itโs ready!
In the app, projects so created are now listed in the Concierge section.
Missing Projects? Fear Not! Theyโre Stillย There
For some of our users, the changes seem to have been so sudden that theyโve reported their projects as โmissingโ, โlostโ or โdisappearingโ.ย Spooky!
But rest assured, thereโs nothing supernatural going onโโโtheyโre safe, just moved to either of the two new sections.
We admit this may be a little annoying at first, but youโll see the benefits going forward.
