NewsCatcher

The web logs everything. We make it searchable.

Visit NewsCatcher

NewsCatcher provides web and news search APIs for AI agents and enterprise teams, returning structured, enriched JSON rather than raw HTML. Its products include CatchAll, a recall-first web search API; News API v3, a general news search API; and monitoring tools for companies and events. The platform indexes public web pages and news sources, enriching results with entity, sentiment, and taxonomy tags, and supports filtering by language, country, entity, and topic.

CatchAll is priced per record returned, with free credits on sign-up. News API v3 is available to enterprise clients under an unlimited data license with a defined number of concurrent API calls, with pricing and call limits tailored to the use case. Event Monitors deliver new events to a webhook on a schedule, while Company Monitors track a list of companies for new coverage. The platform supports entity resolution, localized news, and source additions on demand. It is designed for AI platforms, financial services, government, defense, insurance, and other sectors requiring structured news data.
