Diffbot provides a simple, well documented API that allows for mind-boggling web scraping with brain-dead code. By finding what's important on nearly every kind of webpage, Diffbot helped launch my project further than I could have imagined, saving me hours writing code which would have only been able to understand a few websites.

There are mulitple ways to "extract" data with Diffbot. We use the Knowledge Graph (which doesn't really require any knowledge of extraction or web scraping on our end) for exploratory analysis. And for more redudent scrapes the automatic extraction API. Solid documentation and the knowledge graph works right out of the box.
