What It Is
Parsing a full Screaming Frog crawl by hand takes time, and you have to know what you are looking for. Erika Braeger of Ten Speed uploads the crawl export to Claude in chunks and uses it as a second set of eyes: it surfaces and prioritises issues faster than a manual pass, and it turns the findings into graphs that are ready for a client deck. The judgement stays with you. You decide what you are looking for before the data goes in.
How It Works
- Run the crawl and decide which issues you are looking for before you hand anything to Claude.
- Export the crawl and upload it to Claude in chunks.
- Ask Claude to surface and prioritise the issues in each chunk, then check its findings against the crawl.
- Have Claude build the graphs for the client presentation.
Who Recommends It
- Erika Braeger endorses — Ten Speed. “If you can upload chunks of a Screaming Frog crawl into Claude, it’s able to surface things and prioritize much more quickly than if you were to just look through the crawl on your own.” She adds: “You obviously need to make your own set of decisions before feeding it to Claude.” Unscripted SEO episode →
