AI agents

# Anakin

Anakin is building web data infrastructure for AI agents and data teams. We help them get clean, structured and deterministic data from any website with one API call, at up to 10,000x lower cost than driving a browser. We do that by collecting data and turning websites into documented, self-healing APIs that adapt when sites change. Our engine automatically delivers real-time data from thousands of websites and apps, including the world's hardest, across 100+ countries.
