About NewsCatcher
CatchAll by NewsCatcher is a recall-first web search API built for queries where the results are spread across hundreds or thousands of pages on the web. Instead of returning the top ranked links like traditional search engines, CatchAll retrieves a large candidate set from the web, validates which pages actually match the query, and extracts structured records of real-world events. Developers and data teams use CatchAll to answer “long-list” questions such as tracking regulatory actions, funding rounds, product launches, corporate expansions, or cybersecurity incidents. The output is not just links but clean, deduplicated datasets that can power AI agents, monitoring systems, analytics pipelines, and market intelligence workflows. CatchAll runs on the data infrastructure developed by NewsCatcher, which continuously indexes millions of articles and public web pages across a global network of sources.
