Yeah—there are much better ways than manual copy/paste.
A few options, depending on where the data is coming from:
- Browser extensions: grab tables from web pages and export to CSV/Excel
- Web scraping tools: automatically pull data from pages on a schedule
- Google Sheets functions: for some sites,
IMPORTHTML,IMPORTXML, orIMPORTDATAcan pull data directly - Automation with Python: useful if the pages are messy or need login
- No-code tools: tools like Apify, ParseHub, Octoparse, etc.
If you want, I can help you with one of these right now.
For example, I can:
- show you the easiest no-code option,
- help you pull data into Excel/Google Sheets,
- or write a scraper for a specific website.
If you send me a sample page or describe the kind of data, I’ll suggest the fastest approach.
