Problem
Developers and AI agents need reliable, structured access to web data, but most websites lack public APIs and actively resist automated scraping through bot detection, CAPTCHAs, and anti-scraping measures. Building and maintaining scrapers for these sites is time-consuming, brittle, and expensive, requiring constant updates whenever target sites change their markup or access controls.
Solution
Anakin provides a unified web data API that enables developers and AI agents to scrape, crawl, search, and extract structured content from any website. The platform offers managed Wire endpoints for 1,009+ sites that lack official APIs, delivering structured JSON instead of raw HTML. It handles proxies, fingerprinting, CAPTCHA bypass, and retries automatically, so users can make a single API call instead of managing browser infrastructure. The service includes keyless Zero Touch access for simple read-only operations, authenticated browser sessions for logged-in scraping, and an agentic search pipeline for multi-stage research tasks. All products share the same API key, documentation, and infrastructure, with integrations for Claude, Cursor, Zapier, and other common tools.
Target Audience
Primary customers are developers, AI agent builders, and enterprises that need reliable web data at scale, including e-commerce companies, ride-hailing platforms, food delivery services, and insurance carriers. The platform also serves GTM teams, social media analysts, and news monitoring operations.
