2021 Changelog

December 2021

October 2021

  • List API - NEW!

    Today we've added The List API to the Diffbot API suite of extraction APIs. The List API automatically extracts data from any single web page that contains a primary list of items, such as news index pages, product listings pages, and search engine results pages. It is also embedded under the Diffbot Analyze API which will now attempt to identify and extract pages that match the criteria for a List page. Please refer to the List API documentation for more information.

August 2021

  • We've added the ability to query on look-alikes using two or more Diffbot Org IDs as inputs.

    similarTo(id:or(id1, id2, ...)): e.g. 'Organizations similar to Target and Walmart'

    type:Organization similarTo(id:or("ExADb18D6MAmunRrlVELe8A", "EOU1WEvHYN6K83Etm91H9fQ"))

June 2021

  • We have introduced a new model to predict revenue for private companies. Almost every company in the KG (over 243M) now has revenue either extracted from the web or estimated with this model.

  • Use the Knowledge Graph to find look-alikes:

    type:Organization similarTo(type:Organization name:"Walmart")
