Problem
AI agents and applications need reliable, structured access to live web data, but raw scraping often fails on JavaScript-heavy pages, bot protection, and inconsistent HTML. Developers struggle with configuring proxies, managing retries, and parsing unstructured content, which slows down development and reduces the quality of retrieved information.
Solution
Context.dev offers a web data infrastructure platform with a single API that unifies search, scraping, crawling, and research capabilities. The service automatically handles complex rendering, scales proxies when blocked, and adapts retries on failed requests, achieving a 99.96% success rate with zero configuration. It converts web pages and PDFs into clean Markdown, structured JSON, or other formats, and provides tools for monitoring page changes and running batch crawls. The platform also includes a research API that returns structured answers with cited sources, specifically designed for grounding AI agents and feeding RAG pipelines. Additionally, Context Highlights returns query-relevant passages from webpages, reducing token consumption for AI agents.
Target Audience
Primary customers are developers and product teams building AI agents, RAG systems, and web applications that require live web data, including use cases like AI CRM enrichment, chatbot knowledge bases, and automated research tools.
