Built for controlled research exports

A productivity-focused workflow for high-volume Web of Science exports where visibility, pacing, and stability matter.

Batch automation

Runs exports in 500-record increments aligned with WOS limits so large result sets do not require repetitive manual clicks.

  • Batch-based export ranges
  • Full export sequence automation
  • Handles long repetitive runs
  • Supports large result sets

Live controls

Popup and on-page panel controls keep the workflow observable while start, pause, resume, and stop stay one action away.

  • Popup control surface
  • Floating page panel
  • Pause, resume, and stop actions
  • Visible progress and batch status

Safe Mode

Risk-control settings reduce overly aggressive automation patterns through delays, cooldowns, and error thresholds.

  • Hourly batch limits
  • Consecutive error thresholds
  • Randomized delays
  • Cooldown and manual resume options

Trusted Origins

Works across university and proxy-based access models by letting teams approve the active institutional origin instead of hardcoding domains.

  • Institution-specific domain support
  • Custom origin approval flow
  • Designed for proxy access patterns
  • Improves cross-campus usability
