Access the Web as a Structured Database

What is Diffbot?

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.
