This is the side-project, that I have been building recently. The API allows searching over the data from many news sites and news aggregators, it also allows to easily extract whole news sites. I built it for two reasons. First, I wanted to have a source of recent news data to play with, essentially to run data analysis and train ml models on. Secondly, because alternative services had wildly high pricing, like 400-500$ per month, and I thought I could build and deploy such a system for a much cheaper price and improve my programming skills along the way. I would very much appreciate any comments/suggestions about the serive or how to make it better :)
Do you host the content as well? What's the legality of that?<p>I ask because I want to embed some archiving and "reader mode" logic into an app of mine that would be FOSS and self hosted. However that means each individual would be effectively scraping and archiving, and possibly p2p spreading, news content<i>(as data sources)</i>.<p>So I'm curious if there is some underlying "fair use"-like mechanism that allows Archive, Outline.com, and you to consume news content without it being considered piracy.
I used to run a large US publisher with 50+ sites writing 50,000 articles a month; if we found someone scraping full articles and offering them for use via an API it would be a problem - even moreso if that person was charging for it. I'm all for hacking and innovation around this space, just be careful here and don't break TOS.

Hi,<p>Simple and effective API. The documentation lacks details about the query parameter. I want to search for A AND B but q=?A%20B does not yield the expected result (seems a OR query) or for exact phrase "A invests in B" do not seem to work. Can you please post details for advanced syntax like this?
Tried it.. pretty straight forward. Free account rate is good for personal use. I think it comes down to 4 calls per day which is reasonable if you are using this as maybe your daily news fetcher.
I added your API to Pipedream.
