The Scenario
You are a growth analyst. Your team is preparing a competitive landscape presentation for the board and you need to know how many of the top 10,000 domains adopted Cloudflare, Shopify, and HubSpot over the past year — with monthly breakdowns.
The presentation is next Tuesday. You have the technology list in column A of a Google Sheet.
It is Thursday afternoon.
The bad version:
- You check DataForSEO's documentation and find the domain analytics technology stats endpoint
- You write a script to loop through three technologies, fetch 12 months each, and parse the response
- The script works but returns one month's data at a time because of endpoint pagination
- You run it 36 times, combine the outputs, and paste them into the sheet manually
- The monthly columns are in a different order for technology 2 because you ran that batch on a different day
- The board deck has misaligned data and you spend Tuesday morning fixing it instead of presenting.
The fast version is one prompt.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your spreadsheet that reads your technology list, calls DataForSEO's domain analytics technology stats endpoint for each one, and writes the monthly adoption counts into the sheet in a consistent structure.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
For each technology in column A of my TechStack sheet, fetch DataForSEO domain analytics technology stats for the past 12 months and write monthly adoption counts into adjacent columns.
SheetXAI calls the technology stats endpoint for each technology you listed, fetches 12 months of data, and writes the monthly counts into columns B through M in the same order for every row. You come back to a clean, aligned trend matrix.
What You Get
A TechStack sheet with 12 new columns per technology:
- Columns B-M — monthly domain adoption count for each of the past 12 months
All three technologies, all 12 months, consistently structured. Sort by the most recent month to rank current adoption. Chart the rows to see growth curves for each technology. The board deck gets a clean data table instead of a last-minute scramble.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Technology research requests come in different forms. SheetXAI handles the variations in one prompt.
When you want to filter adoption counts by country
The board wants to see European adoption specifically, not global counts.
For each technology in column A of my TechStack sheet, fetch DataForSEO technology stats for Germany, France, and the UK for the past 12 months. Write monthly adoption counts for each country into separate columns labeled with the country name.
When you want to compare month-over-month growth rates instead of raw counts
Raw counts are hard to interpret across technologies with very different total adoption bases. Growth rate tells a cleaner story.
Fetch DataForSEO technology adoption stats for all technologies in column A of my TechStack sheet for the past 12 months. Write monthly domain counts into columns B through M. Then in column N, calculate the month-over-month percentage change from month 11 to month 12 and label the trend direction.
When you need to add a fourth technology that was not in the original list
The board asked about Magento last minute and your sheet only has Shopify, Cloudflare, and HubSpot.
Add "Magento" to the end of my TechStack sheet and fetch DataForSEO technology stats for it for the past 12 months. Write monthly adoption counts into columns B through M to match the format of the existing rows.
When you need the full data plus a competitive narrative for the board deck
The board wants numbers and context, not just a table.
Fetch DataForSEO technology adoption stats for all technologies in column A of my TechStack sheet for the past 12 months. Write monthly counts into columns B through M. Then create a Narrative sheet and write a short paragraph for each technology describing its growth trajectory over the past year and what the adoption trend suggests about market direction.
The pattern: the data pull and the written narrative happen in one prompt — the board deck is ready without a second pass.
