Datovu helps users collect and index information, then publish datasets as data APIs without writing backend infrastructure. Its AI agent can plan research from natural-language instructions, search across sources, and return structured data. Inputs include CSV, JSON, and PDF files, pasted text, connected data feeds, and web results, which can be combined in one searchable index. The API builder creates REST APIs with generated endpoints, pagination, filtering, and documentation. Publishers can set up checkout, usage metering, and payouts through Stripe Connect, and list APIs in a marketplace where visitors can discover and subscribe without an account. Datovu is available on the web and by API, with cloud deployment. A free plan is available; paid plans start at 29.00 USD per month. Operations stop at plan limits without overage charges, with alerts at 80%, 90%, and 100% usage. Datovu says data is isolated by user and team and offers zero-retention options. It says it respects robots.txt and website terms and does not support unauthorized scraping of login-gated or legally protected content.
Who it is for
It suits developers building data APIs, data teams monetizing datasets, and companies creating internal knowledge APIs. Publisher plans also support multi-user workspaces with assigned roles.
