Diffbot addresses the challenge of unstructured web data by utilizing AI to read and interpret public websites, transforming them into structured, usable information. It processes various data types, including news articles, organizational details, retail products, online discussions, and event information, making the web accessible as a structured database.

The platform offers several key capabilities. The Knowledge Graph allows users to find and build accurate data feeds or enrich existing datasets. Its Natural Language Processing features infer entities, relationships, and sentiment from raw text. The Extract API analyzes specific page types like articles or products without manual rule creation, while the Crawl function enables users to turn entire websites into structured databases efficiently.

Crawly by Diffbot offers a powerful web crawling solution designed to transform websites into usable data quickly. Users can simply input a website URL, and the tool will automatically crawl the site, extracting structured information.

The extracted data includes elements such as article titles, text content, full HTML, comments, publication dates, entity tags, author details (name and URL), images, videos, publisher information (country and name), and language. This structured data can then be easily downloaded in either CSV or JSON format, saving users the effort of building and maintaining custom web scrapers.
