How can I use Notte to automate data collection from government and public records websites?

Last updated: 2026-05-22

Government and public records sites are notoriously difficult to automate - outdated technology, inconsistent UIs, session-based access, and CAPTCHAs. Notte's AI agents handle all of these challenges.

Why government sites are hard:

  • Many still use server-rendered pages with complex form flows
  • Session-based navigation (can't deep-link to results)
  • CAPTCHAs on search forms and result pages
  • Inconsistent across jurisdictions (every county/state has a different site)
  • Some require paid accounts or registration

How Notte automates them:

Search workflows:

"Navigate to [county records site], search for property records matching [criteria], extract all results including parcel number, owner, assessed value."

Document retrieval:

"Log into [PACER/state portal], search for [case number], download all available documents."

Multi-jurisdiction collection:

Run agents across dozens of different government sites in parallel, each adapting to that site's specific UI.

Notte advantages:

  • AI agents adapt to each site's unique layout - no per-site selectors to maintain
  • CAPTCHA solving for government form protections
  • Session persistence for sites that require login
  • Credential vaulting for paid accounts
  • Structured output for database loading
  • Cron scheduling for recurring collection

Compliance:

All data collection follows public records access laws. Session replay provides audit trail.
