Extension summary

Analyze keywords

DeepSearch is a Chrome Extension that supercharges Ctrl+F, letting you search for text on all linked pages simultaneously. You can review your matches in tooltips next to the links or download them in a CSV file for future analysis.

Advanced users can use Regular Expressions (regex) complete with capture groups to extract exactly the information they are looking for. This works both on the current page and as part of a "deep" search.

Tips

Open the DeepSearch interface with "Alt+Shift+F" or click the .* icon in your Chrome toolbar.
You can cycle through "shallow" results with the "Find" and "Find Prev" buttons or by hitting "Enter" and "Shift+Enter" respectively.
Performing "deep" search (with the chevron selected) can take several seconds as it downloads all of the linked pages. This delay is a function of your internet connection and the number of links present. You can cancel your search at any time by clicking the X button.
You may download results as a CSV from a tooltip (for "deep" searches) or the DeepSearch menu (for "shallow" searches). This file can be opened with any spreadsheet tool (e.g., Excel).

User reviews

Very useful search tool. Feature request for the deep search: Limit the links followed by deep search to a specific pattern (regex for the links to be followed would be nice). This would speed up deep searches by preventing searches on obviously "digressing" pages.

(almost) Perfect! If we can just get a way to set Regex mode as default... see https://github.com/HenryMarshall/deep-search/issues/9

The only extension I found that allows to toggle regex and case sensitivity on/off. "Deep Search" and "Download as CSV" are great extras as well, though I haven't used them much.
