Market Monitoring

Problem

Monitoring competitor content and market trends requires extracting clean content from various sources. Raw HTML includes navigation and ads that obscure the actual content.

Solution

Extract clean content for analysis and monitoring. Get focused content for trend analysis, competitive intelligence, and market research.

Important: Only monitor publicly available content. Respect robots.txt, terms of service, and applicable laws. Use this for legitimate market research and competitive analysis.

Example Workflow

  1. Collect HTML from monitored sources (with proper rights)
  2. Extract clean content using Content Extractor API
  3. Analyze content for trends and insights
  4. Store extracted content for historical tracking
  5. Generate reports and alerts

Example Request

const response = await fetch('https://api.content-extractor.devstools.net/v1/extract', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer ce_your_token_here',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ 
    html: competitorHtml,
    url: 'https://competitor.com/article'
  })
});

const { title, content, publishedAt } = await response.json();

// Store for analysis
await monitoringDB.save({
  source: 'competitor',
  title,
  content,
  publishedAt,
  extractedAt: new Date()
});

Benefits

  • Clean content for analysis
  • Automated extraction workflows
  • Consistent data format
  • Better trend detection
