Introduction
Automates scholarship tracking by scraping university sites, assessing eligibility via AI, and publishing results to WordPress or Slack. Eliminates manual searches for students, counselors, and education platforms, enabling scalable curation and timely notifications.
How it Works
Webhook triggers parallel scraping of NUS, NTU, SIT, SUTD → merge data → AI evaluates eligibility → aggregate qualified scholarships → generate summaries → post to WordPress/Slack → send email notifications with appeal options.
Setup Steps
- Configure OpenAI credentials and eligibility prompt template
- Update HTTP requests with university URLs and selectors
- Add WordPress site URL and API credentials
- Create Slack webhook and notification channel
- Configure Gmail/SMTP for email notifications
Workflow
Webhook → Scrape 4 Universities (Parallel) → Merge Data → Prepare Context → AI Eligibility Check → Aggregate Results → Generate Summary → Check Status → Publish Slack/Email/WordPress → Handle Appeals
Workflow Steps
- Scraping: Fetch scholarship pages from four universities simultaneously
- Merge: Combine data into a unified dataset
- AI Processing: Analyze eligibility criteria, deadlines against student profile
- Aggregation: Consolidate qualified scholarships with match scores
- Publishing: Post to WordPress, send Slack/email with results
- Appeals: Webhook handles rejection appeals with AI review
