ExportToLLM: The Button That Ends Web Scraping
An update from the LLMFeed ecosystem
๐ค ExportToLLM: The Button That Ends Web Scraping
Transforming any content into agent-ready capsules โ one click at a time
๐ฏ Why This Changes Everything
LLMs and agents are now core actors on the Web. But they're still tourists with broken maps.
Current Reality:
- Sites speak HTML (for humans)
- Agents scrape and guess (unreliably)
- Context gets lost in translation
- Trust is impossible to verify
The ExportToLLM Solution:
โ
Turns any page into a structured, agent-readable capsule
โ
One click, zero ambiguity
โ
Explicit trust and origin metadata
โ
Works with any LLM or agent
โ
Portable across platforms
๐ง Not Just Export โ Intent Export
This isn't "save as JSON." It's declaring meaning.
Every exported capsule contains:
json
json{ "feed_type": "export", "metadata": { "origin": "https://example.com/article", "title": "AI Strategy Guide", "generated_at": "2025-06-08T15:30:00Z", "export_context": "user_requested" }, "data": { "content": "Clean markdown or structured data", "key_points": ["Point 1", "Point 2"], "citations": ["source1.com", "source2.org"] }, "trust": { "signed_blocks": ["metadata", "data"], "scope": "public", "verification_url": "https://example.com/.well-known/public.pem" }, "agent_guidance": { "intended_use": "reference_material", "attribution_required": true, "commercial_use": "allowed" } }
Result: Agents get context, not just content.
๐ The Three Export Modes
1. Static Export
html
html<!-- Pre-generated feeds --> <a href="/exports/about.llmfeed.json" class="export-btn"> ๐ค Export for AI </a>
Use Case: Documentation, tutorials, static content
Benefit: Zero server load, cacheable, always available
2. Dynamic Export
javascript
javascriptasync function exportCurrentPage() { const response = await fetch('/api/export', { method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify({ url: window.location.href, user_context: getCurrentUserContext() }) }); const feed = await response.json(); copyToClipboard(JSON.stringify(feed, null, 2)); }
Use Case: Personalized content, session data, user-specific exports
Benefit: Context-aware, includes user state
3. Live DOM Export
javascript
javascriptfunction exportCleanDOM() { const clone = document.documentElement.cloneNode(true); // Remove noise for agents clone.querySelectorAll('nav, footer, .ads, [data-llm="ignore"]') .forEach(el => el.remove()); return { feed_type: "export", metadata: { title: document.title, origin: window.location.href, export_type: "live_dom" }, data: { html: clone.outerHTML, reading_time: estimateReadingTime(), main_content: extractMainContent() } }; }
Use Case: Real-time content, interactive pages
Benefit: Captures current state, includes user interactions
๐ Real-World Implementation Examples
E-Commerce: Product Export
json
json// Shopify store export { "feed_type": "export", "metadata": { "title": "Wireless Headphones - TechStore", "origin": "https://techstore.com/headphones-xyz" }, "data": { "product": { "name": "Wireless Headphones XYZ", "price": "$199", "availability": "in_stock", "reviews_summary": "4.5/5 stars (247 reviews)" }, "purchase_options": { "buy_now": "/api/purchase", "add_to_cart": "/api/cart" } }, "capabilities": [ { "name": "check_stock", "method": "GET", "path": "/api/products/xyz/stock" } ] }

๐ง Technical Implementation Guide
Basic Button (5 minutes)
html
html<button onclick="exportToLLM()" class="export-llm-btn"> ๐ค Export for AI </button> <script> function exportToLLM() { const feed = { feed_type: "export", metadata: { title: document.title, origin: window.location.href, generated_at: new Date().toISOString() }, data: { content: document.querySelector('main').textContent.trim(), url: window.location.href } }; navigator.clipboard.writeText(JSON.stringify(feed, null, 2)) .then(() => alert('โ Exported to clipboard! Paste into any AI assistant.')); } </script>
Advanced Implementation
javascript
javascriptclass LLMExporter { constructor(options = {}) { this.apiEndpoint = options.apiEndpoint || '/api/export'; this.signFeeds = options.signFeeds || false; this.cleanContent = options.cleanContent !== false; } async export(element, type = 'content') { const baseData = { feed_type: "export", metadata: { title: document.title, origin: window.location.href, generated_at: new Date().toISOString(), export_type: type } }; switch(type) { case 'content': return this.exportContent(element, baseData); case 'form': return this.exportForm(element, baseData); case 'product': return this.exportProduct(element, baseData); default: return this.exportGeneric(element, baseData); } } exportContent(element, baseData) { const content = this.cleanContent ? this.cleanForAgents(element) : element.textContent; return { ...baseData, data: { content: content, word_count: content.split(' ').length, reading_time: Math.ceil(content.split(' ').length / 200) } }; } cleanForAgents(element) { const clone = element.cloneNode(true); clone.querySelectorAll('.ads, .social-share, nav, footer') .forEach(el => el.remove()); return clone.textContent.trim(); } } // Usage const exporter = new LLMExporter({signFeeds: true}); document.querySelectorAll('.export-btn').forEach(btn => { btn.addEventListener('click', async () => { const feed = await exporter.export(btn.closest('article')); await navigator.clipboard.writeText(JSON.stringify(feed, null, 2)); showToast('โ Exported to clipboard'); }); });
๐ The Network Effect
Phase 1: Early Adopters
- Developers add export buttons to blogs/docs
- AI enthusiasts start using exported feeds
- Quality improves as agents get better data
Phase 2: Platform Integration
javascript
javascript// WordPress auto-export plugin function add_llm_export_button($content) { if (is_single()) { $export_btn = '<button onclick="exportPost()">๐ค Export for AI</button>'; return $content . $export_btn; } return $content; } add_filter('the_content', 'add_llm_export_button');
Impact: Millions of WordPress sites become agent-ready
Phase 3: Browser Native Support
javascript
javascript// Browser extension auto-detects exportable content browser.contextMenus.create({ title: "Export for AI", contexts: ["selection", "page"], onclick: (info, tab) => { browser.tabs.executeScript(tab.id, { code: `exportSelection("${info.selectionText}")` }); } });
Impact: Any content becomes exportable
Phase 4: Universal Standard
html
html<!-- Standard meta tag --> <meta name="llm-export" content="enabled"> <link rel="llm-export" href="/.well-known/export-templates.json">
Impact: Agents automatically detect exportable sites
๐จ UX Patterns That Work
Clipboard-First Design
css
css.export-btn { background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%); color: white; border: none; padding: 8px 16px; border-radius: 6px; cursor: pointer; display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 8px; } .export-btn:hover { transform: translateY(-1px); box-shadow: 0 4px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.15); }
Why It Works: Feels native, works across all platforms
Context-Aware Exports
javascript
javascript// Different exports for different content types function detectContentType() { if (document.querySelector('.product-details')) return 'product'; if (document.querySelector('article')) return 'article'; if (document.querySelector('.recipe')) return 'recipe'; return 'generic'; } function getExportTemplate(type) { const templates = { product: { data_fields: ['name', 'price', 'description', 'availability'], capabilities: ['add_to_cart', 'check_stock'] }, article: { data_fields: ['title', 'author', 'content', 'sources'], agent_guidance: {reading_level: 'auto-detect'} }, recipe: { data_fields: ['ingredients', 'instructions', 'prep_time'], capabilities: ['scale_recipe', 'substitute_ingredients'] } }; return templates[type] || templates.generic; }
๐ The Viral Adoption Strategy
For Content Creators
1. Add export button to popular blog post 2. Readers export to ChatGPT/Claude 3. AI gives better answers because of structured data 4. Readers ask "how did the AI understand so well?" 5. Answer: "The site has an export button" 6. Other creators copy the pattern
For Developers
1. Build export functionality into side project 2. Demo how well agents work with exported data 3. Post on Twitter/LinkedIn showing the difference 4. Other devs implement for competitive advantage 5. Pattern spreads across developer community
For Businesses
