What is Crawly?
Crawly offers a streamlined solution for extracting structured data from web content using a single API endpoint. Users can specify the exact information they need from a webpage or an entire website through a prompt, and Crawly's AI processes the request to return the data in a structured format, such as strings, numbers, lists, or booleans. This eliminates the need for complex scraping setups, providing instant access to relevant information like project names, pitch lines, features, or descriptions directly from the source.
In addition to data extraction, Crawly provides high-resolution, full-page screenshots of the analyzed pages, accessible via a link in the API response. The tool supports both single-page analysis and comprehensive full-site scans, where it intelligently follows relevant links for deeper insights. This makes it suitable for various data gathering tasks, from quick lookups to in-depth website analysis, with a simple pay-as-you-go pricing model.
