Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 11 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

The Headache of Manual Data Collection, Solved with Vinkius AI Gateway

Think about spending a Tuesday afternoon gathering competitive data. You open Google, find five competitor pages, and start clicking through. On one site you copy the product price; on another you have to manually navigate to the 'About Us' section for the founding date, and then remember to scroll down to grab employee count details. It's slow, it requires jumping between tabs, and every single manual step is a chance to miss something or misformat data.

With this MCP connected to your agent, you stop clicking through pages and start asking questions. You give the URL and say, 'Give me the product price AND the founding year.' Your AI client runs the necessary extraction tools in the background, delivering one single block of clean, structured JSON that's ready for your database.

Structured Data Extraction with Diffbot

Manual scraping involves opening a link, finding the right element (the price, the date), and then painstakingly copying it into a spreadsheet. If you're dealing with forums, you have to read through dozens of comments just to pull out the main points.

Now, using `extract_article_data` or `extract_forum_thread`, your agent handles all that messy work. You receive clean data structures automatically. The process isn't about clicking; it’s about conversing.

What your AI can actually do with this

You don't have to build complex scrapers or spend hours copy-pasting data into spreadsheets anymore. This MCP acts as your dedicated research analyst, letting your AI agent pull structured information directly from any web page URL. You can ask it to find the main text of a news article, gather all product specs from an e-commerce listing, or summarize key points from a discussion board.

If you need more than just raw text, you can use its massive database to look up company details or employee information using simple queries. It’s like having a data engineer ready for conversation. Vinkius hosts this connector so your AI client gets access to these powerful data tools alongside everything else you're building.

It's about going from 'here' (a messy webpage) to 'there' (clean, structured data points) with just a prompt.

Questions you might have

How do I use Diffbot MCP to extract product data? +

You tell your agent to use extract_product_data on the URL. It will pull out structured details like SKUs, prices, and specifications found on e-commerce listing pages.

Can I find company information using search_knowledge_graph? +

Yes, you can use search_knowledge_graph to query its massive database. You just need to define the parameters like industry or location, and it returns structured results.

What is the difference between extract_article_data and extract_forum_thread? +

They are for different types of content. Use extract_article_data for clean blog posts or news articles, and use extract_forum_thread when you need to pull key points from a discussion board.

Does Diffbot MCP handle data enrichment? +

Yes. You can run enhance_company_profile or enhance_person_profile with just a name and domain, and the tool adds professional background details to that entity.

How do I know what kind of page I'm looking at? +

Before extracting anything, you can run analyze_page_type. This tells your agent if the URL is an article, a product listing, or something else so it uses the right extraction method.

How do I find my Diffbot API Token? +

Log in to your Diffbot account and navigate to the Dashboard or Manage Tokens section to copy your unique access token.

What is DQL and how can I use it? +

DQL (Diffbot Query Language) allows you to filter the Knowledge Graph. Use the search_knowledge_graph tool with queries like type:Organization industries:"AI".

Can I extract comments from articles? +

Yes! The extract_article_data tool has an optional discussion parameter. Set it to true to retrieve structured comment threads if available.
