What is Contify News API?
Contify News API is a business-focused, GenAI-enriched structured news feed API that delivers noise-free, machine-readable updates on companies, industries, topics, and trends. It aggregates data from over 1 million curated sources including news websites, company websites, regulatory portals, job boards, review sites, and social media, covering 700,000+ companies globally and 2.5 million+ stories per week.
Key features include GenAI-powered key highlights extraction for every story, automatic entity tagging (companies, people, locations, topics, sentiment), deduplication through a 7-step curation process combining AI and human validation, multi-language support with auto-translation from 117+ languages into English, and flexible delivery via RESTful JSON APIs, webhooks, and RSS feeds. The API returns 15+ metadata fields including news ID, title, summary, URL, publication date, image URL, source type, language, and AI-enriched metadata.
The API is designed for developers, data scientists, product managers, and business intelligence teams building applications that need real-time business news. Primary use cases include product enhancement (embedding news streams into SaaS portals), AI/LLM pipelines (training models with structured intelligence data), company intelligence feeds into CRMs, business intelligence dashboards, risk analysis monitoring, and research/content enrichment.
