Skills ​

Give your agent access to Diffbot's Knowledge Graph and web structuring APIs. Query over a trillion facts on organizations, people, and news; Crawl and extract sites to build your own structured knowledge graphs.

Knowledge Graph ​

/diffbot-news — News and articles ​

type:Article search, newest-first by default. Filter by mentioned entity, topic taxonomy, publisher, language, date range, or sentiment.

/diffbot-news recent AI news

type:Organization search by industry, headquarters, headcount, revenue, funding, ownership, or leadership.
