Diffbot Crawl enables users to efficiently extract data from entire websites, transforming them into structured databases. Unlike traditional web scraping methods, Crawl requires no pre-defined rules, allowing it to automatically spider through every link from a starting point and extract all accessible content. Diffbot's distributed crawling infrastructure is capable of processing millions of pages daily, ensuring speed and scalability. The Crawl API provides programmatic access to start crawls, monitor their status, and retrieve the extracted data. Crawl can be used independently or in conjunction with Diffbot Extract to process pages using the most appropriate extraction API. Advanced techniques are available for crawling pages behind logins, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
