Get started#

The Automatic Extraction is a service for automatically extracting information from web pages.

You provide the page URLs that you are interested in, and what type of content you expect to find there: article, article list, comments, forum posts, job posting, product, product list, real estate, reviews or vehicle.

The service will then fetch the content, and apply a number of techniques behind the scenes to extract as much information as possible. Finally, the extracted information is returned to you in structured form.

Page types#

The following page types are supported:

Price intelligence & ecommerce#

Media & discussion monitoring#

Market research#

In addition to that, Automatic Extraction returns some general information about a web page.

Getting started#
