Ok, I SH!T you not — this tool didn't just save me hours… it saved me *days*. And honestly, it saved me from questioning all my life choices (including that time I thought “manual content migration” was a reasonable way to spend a week)

Ok, I SH!T you not — this tool didn't just save me hours… it saved me days.
And honestly, it saved me from questioning all my life choices (including that time I thought “manual content migration” was a reasonable way to spend a week).

I stumbled across String by Pipedream, tried it on a whim, and within minutes I was thinking:

“Wait… why am I still doing anything the old way?”


The Problem: Copy-Paste Purgatory

I was staring down a project where I had to migrate a mountain of content from Squarespace to WordPress.

Options?

  • Export/import → nope.
  • Third-party scraper → half-baked.
  • Copy-paste purgatory → no thanks, I'm not ready for my villain origin story.

What I needed was something smarter. Faster. Easier.


The Solution: String (Made by Pipedream)

Enter my new BFF: String by Pipedream.

If you don't know Pipedream yet, think of it like Zapier's cooler, stronger, cheaper cousin. It can connect to literally any API and even lets you drop in Node.js when you need to go deeper.

Now add String into the mix.
Instead of you building the workflows, String does it for you.
You just describe what you want in plain English, and it spins up a production-ready Pipedream workflow.

Sounds too good to be true, right? Same. But it works.


My Example: Squarespace → WordPress (Without Tears)

Here's what I did:

  1. Gave String a Squarespace URL.
  2. Asked it to scrape the content.
  3. Format it into WordPress blocks.
  4. Push it into WordPress via REST API.

Normally? That's days of work.
With String? Minutes.

To make it even smoother, I hacked together a tiny Nuxt app with a form → paste URL → hit submit → workflow fires. Done.

No manual copy-paste. No spaghetti code. No late-night muttering into my keyboard.


Why This Matters

This isn't just about content migrations.
It's about nuking the boring stuff from orbit so you can focus on the parts of your work that actually matter.

Whether you're:

  • Migrating websites
  • Automating reporting
  • Integrating random APIs
  • Or just tired of doing the same repetitive thing 1,000 times

…String can handle it.

And the best part? You don't need to write a single line of workflow code.

Final Thoughts

AI that just gets sh!t done isn't some far-off promise anymore. It's here. And if you're still spending hours on manual, repetitive work? That's time you're never getting back.

String by Pipedream just gave me days of my life back — and I'm already thinking: what else can I automate?
