WaterCrawl

What WaterCrawl is

WaterCrawl is a crawling framework aimed at the preparation step: scrape pages, clean the content and emit structured data that a language model can use, rather than leaving teams to build that plumbing themselves.

What you can do with it

• Crawl sites for retrieval content
• Clean scraped pages automatically
• Output structured data for pipelines
• Keep model inputs current
• Automate recurring collection

Who it is for

• Developers building retrieval applications
• Data teams preparing corpora
• AI application builders

What to watch out for

• Crawling must respect robots directives and site terms; the framework does not change your obligations
• Scraped pages often contain personal data, so lawful basis and retention apply
• Content changes constantly, which becomes a correctness problem for retrieval
• Structured output needs validation before it reaches anything users see
