Context.dev

What is Context.dev?

Context.dev is a web context API that gives software teams and AI agents real-time access to the open web without building or maintaining scraping infrastructure. It turns any URL into clean markdown or HTML, resolves domains and messy transaction descriptors into typed company and brand profiles, and serves logos through a zero-setup image endpoint. Backed by Y Combinator, the platform replaces a patchwork of scraping vendors with one typed layer used by teams like Mintlify and daily.dev to feed live data into RAG pipelines, onboarding flows, and agentic workflows.

Key Features

• Web Scraping & Crawling

  Convert any URL or entire sitemap into clean, LLM-ready markdown or HTML, with JavaScript rendering and anti-bot bypass included at no extra cost.

• AI-Based Structured Extraction

  Define a custom schema and pull exactly the fields needed—like pricing tiers or product specs—from any page using AI-driven parsing.

• Brand & Company Intelligence

  Resolve a domain, email, or ticker into a typed profile with logos, colors, fonts, industry, headcount, and revenue estimates.

• Logo Link

  Embed any company logo with a single image tag pulled from a global CDN, no API key or backend call required.

• Transaction Descriptor Resolution

  Turn cryptic merchant strings like bank statement codes into recognizable brand names with attached metadata.

• Typed Multi-Language SDKs

  Official SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Go, and PHP let teams integrate the API into most stacks within minutes.

Use Cases

• Real-Time RAG Grounding : Keep retrieval indexes current by crawling sitemaps and converting fresh pages into embeddings without brittle custom parsers.
• AI Agent Web Awareness : Give autonomous agents live access to pricing pages, docs, and changelogs so their answers reflect the current web, not a stale training snapshot.
• Onboarding Auto-Fill : Pre-fill signup forms with company name, logo, and industry pulled from a user's work email domain to reduce drop-off.
• Fintech Transaction Enrichment : Translate raw payment descriptors into clean brand names and categories for statements, budgeting apps, or expense tools.
• Sales & CRM Enrichment : Automatically attach firmographic and brand data to inbound leads so sales teams can qualify accounts faster.
