Real-time web data streaming API — define filter rules and receive instant updates when matching pages are crawled.
Firehose is a real-time web data streaming API that lets you define Lucene filter rules and receive instant Server-Sent Events (SSE) updates when matching web pages are crawled. Use it to track breaking news, monitor brand mentions, gather competitive intelligence, or build real-time data pipelines. Define your filters once and Firehose continuously streams matching results as the web is crawled — no polling, no delays.
