The structured search engine for academic research
The web serves as an abundant source of information, but the sheer volume and lack of organization can pose significant challenges for research purposes. Our search engine provides researchers at universities and National Statistical Offices with easy access to the entire web within a clean, structured database. Use data from 700 million hostnames, including 25 million company websites, to address a vast amount of research questions spanning economic, social, cultural and geopolitical topics. Web data has diverse applications, such as analyzing the Covid-19 impact on digital transformation and technology adoption, measuring countries’ digital economies and examining how cybercrime affects businesses and governments.

The interconnectedness of the web lets you explore networks and clusters around your research topic. Identify interconnected topics, visualize how information or technology spreads on the web, find new angles for your research and expand your focus and methods using web trends. Examine which businesses are adopting new technology, how are social concepts and cultural practices distributed across the globe, how many websites breach policy regulations, how political views spread online and across countries, and more.
Complement your existing research
Our data is indexed from public websites and updated every month. We structure the data into one big database. For an existing sample of websites identified during your research, you can obtain over 200 unique data fields per website with just a few clicks.
