Alternativa a Diffbot

Bright Data and Diffbot serve different use cases. Bright Data excels at real-time web scraping with 120+ pre-built APIs, a browser-based Web IDE, 150M+ residential proxies, and comprehensive data collection tools. Diffbot specializes in AI-powered knowledge graph technology with 10+ billion entities and 1+ trillion facts.

Choose Bright Data if you need: real-time data collection, proxy infrastructure, visual development tools, multiple export formats (JSON, CSV, Excel, NDJSON), and no-code extraction. Choose Diffbot if you need: pre-structured knowledge graph data, entity relationships, natural language processing, and don't require proxy infrastructure.

The cost comparison depends on your use case. Diffbot's credit-based pricing (starting at 10,000 free credits, then $299/month for 250,000 credits) works well for knowledge graph access and entity extraction. Bright Data offers more flexibility for real-time scraping with unlimited bandwidth and pay-as-you-go options.

Bright Data typically provides better value when you need: high-volume real-time scraping, diverse data sources beyond pre-indexed content, custom scraping logic, multiple export formats, or proxy infrastructure. Our 120+ pre-built scrapers also eliminate development costs that Diffbot's API-first approach may require.

Migration depends on your use case. If you're using Diffbot's Knowledge Graph for entity data, you may want to continue using both services as they're complementary. If you're using Diffbot's Extract API for real-time scraping, migration to Bright Data typically takes 24-72 hours.

The process involves: (1) Identifying which Bright Data APIs match your Diffbot use cases, (2) Running parallel tests, (3) Gradually shifting traffic. Our support team assists throughout the migration and can help you determine if a hybrid approach makes sense for your needs.

Bright Data and Diffbot have different strengths. Diffbot offers: AI-powered Extract API, Crawlbot for site crawling, Natural Language API for entity extraction, and a massive Knowledge Graph with 10B+ entities. Diffbot does not provide proxy infrastructure.

Bright Data offers: 120+ specialized scraper APIs, 150M+ proxy network, browser-based Web IDE, dataset marketplace, real-time scraping, multiple export formats (JSON, NDJSON, CSV, Excel), no-code tools, and comprehensive automation. Bright Data focuses on real-time data collection and provides the infrastructure Diffbot requires to function.

Diffbot's Knowledge Graph is truly unique—it contains over 10 billion entities (organizations, people, products, articles) and 1+ trillion structured facts. This includes 246M+ companies, 1.6B+ articles, and comprehensive entity relationships.

Bright Data's dataset marketplace offers pre-collected data but focuses on real-time scraping rather than maintaining a massive pre-indexed knowledge graph. If you need historical entity data and relationships, Diffbot's Knowledge Graph is valuable. If you need current, real-time data from any source, Bright Data is the better choice. Many customers use both services together.

Absolutely. Bright Data offers free trials on all products with no credit card required. We recommend running parallel tests to compare real-time data collection capabilities, especially if you're using Diffbot primarily for web extraction rather than Knowledge Graph access.

Many enterprises use both services together—Diffbot for entity enrichment and knowledge graph queries, and Bright Data for real-time scraping, proxy infrastructure, and custom data collection. Our team can help you determine the best architecture for your specific needs.

Bright Data supports all major programming languages including Python (with Scrapy support), JavaScript/Node.js, Java, PHP, Ruby, C#, Go, and Bash. We provide SDKs, code examples, and comprehensive documentation for each language.

Bright Data's Web IDE allows you to write, test, and deploy scrapers directly in your browser without any local setup. Diffbot also supports multiple languages through their API but requires developers to work in their local environment. Our platform integrates with Puppeteer, Selenium, Playwright, and BeautifulSoup.

Yes, Bright Data offers comprehensive geotargeting across 195 countries with city-level and ZIP code targeting. You can target specific ASNs and mobile carriers. With 150M+ residential IPs globally, Bright Data ensures strong availability everywhere.

Diffbot does not provide proxy infrastructure or geotargeting—they focus on AI-powered extraction and knowledge graph access. If your use case requires collecting location-specific data or bypassing geo-restrictions, Bright Data's proxy network is essential. Diffbot users often rely on third-party proxy services (like Bright Data) for their infrastructure needs.

Bright Data offers 120+ specialized scraper APIs for specific platforms (Amazon, Google, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.) that return structured, parsed data. Each API is maintained by our team with guaranteed uptime.

Diffbot offers Extract API (automatic page classification and extraction), Crawlbot (site crawling), Natural Language API (entity extraction), and Knowledge Graph API (querying 10B+ entities). Diffbot's strength is in AI-powered understanding of page structure and entity relationships. Bright Data's strength is in real-time data collection from any source with pre-built maintenance-free scrapers.

Bright Data's Web IDE is a full-featured, browser-based development environment with syntax highlighting, AI scraper building, real-time testing, debugging, proxy testing, version control, one-click deployment, and team collaboration. You can develop, test, and deploy scrapers entirely in your browser.

Diffbot does not offer an IDE—it's an API-first platform where you integrate their Extract, Crawl, and Knowledge Graph APIs into your applications. Developers must use their own development environment. Bright Data's Web IDE significantly accelerates development and is especially valuable for teams that need to iterate quickly or collaborate on scraping logic.

Bright Data supports JSON, NDJSON (newline-delimited JSON for streaming), CSV, Excel, and direct database integrations (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB). We also offer webhook delivery, cloud storage integration (Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage), and scheduled exports.

Diffbot outputs JSON only. For teams that need data in spreadsheet formats or streaming capabilities, Bright Data provides more flexibility. NDJSON is particularly valuable for processing large datasets without loading everything into memory, and Excel exports enable non-technical teams to work directly with the data.

Yes, Bright Data's dataset marketplace offers pre-collected datasets for e-commerce, real estate, job postings, company information, and more. However, our focus is different from Diffbot's Knowledge Graph.

Diffbot's Knowledge Graph contains 10B+ entities with historical relationships and 1+ trillion facts—ideal for entity enrichment and relationship queries. Bright Data's datasets focus on current market data for immediate business use. Many customers use both: Diffbot for entity enrichment and historical context, Bright Data for current market intelligence and real-time data collection.

Bright Data offers comprehensive no-code solutions: (1) Visual data selector for point-and-click extraction, (2) Pre-built scraper templates requiring zero coding, (3) Scheduled automatic collection with delivery options, (4) Browser extension for data extraction, (5) Integrations with Google Sheets, Zapier, and Make.

Diffbot is primarily API-first with limited no-code options—it requires developer integration. Bright Data empowers non-technical team members (marketers, analysts, business users) to collect web data independently. This democratization of data collection can significantly reduce the burden on engineering teams.

Bright Data provides 24/7 global support via live chat, email, and phone in multiple languages. Customers receive dedicated account managers, free migration assistance, technical consultation, and comprehensive documentation. Our support team includes experienced developers who provide code-level assistance.

Diffbot offers email support and documentation. For enterprise customers, Diffbot provides custom SLAs, managed solutions, and shared Slack channels. Both companies serve enterprise customers well, but Bright Data's larger support infrastructure and 24/7 availability across time zones make it ideal for global operations requiring immediate assistance.

Yes. Bright Data serves 20,000+ customers including Fortune 500 companies, processing massive volumes of public web data daily. Our infrastructure supports unlimited bandwidth with automatic scaling. The network includes 150M+ residential IPs, 1.3M+ datacenter IPs, 1.3M+ ISP IPs, and 7M+ mobile IPs across 195 countries.

Diffbot serves 400+ companies including major financial institutions and news organizations. Both platforms handle enterprise scale, but they serve different purposes: Diffbot for knowledge graph queries and entity extraction, Bright Data for real-time scraping infrastructure and comprehensive data collection. Many enterprises use both platforms together.

Bright Data is fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and international data protection regulations. We maintain ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, and CSA STAR Level 1 certifications. All proxy IPs are ethically sourced with explicit user consent, and we provide full transparency about our network operations.

Diffbot is also GDPR compliant with data processing agreements available. Both companies take data privacy seriously and are suitable for enterprises with strict compliance requirements. Bright Data's comprehensive certifications and ethical proxy sourcing make it the preferred infrastructure choice for regulated industries requiring both data collection and compliance assurance.
