# Website analysis

> Extract structured business data from a company's website

Website analysis scrapes a company's website and uses AI to extract structured data: people, addresses, contact information, industry classification, and more.

## Enabling website analysis

Add `websiteAnalysis: true` to your request. When the flag is omitted, whether analysis runs follows your account's configured search settings; passing it explicitly overrides that for a single search. Providing the `website` URL is strongly recommended — if omitted, the API attempts to discover it automatically, which adds time.

```json theme={null}
{
  "name": "Shopify Inc",
  "website": "https://shopify.com",
  "websiteAnalysis": true
}
```

## What gets extracted

Results appear in the `website` field of the response:

## Status values

| Status    | Meaning                                                      |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `success` | Website was scraped and data extracted                       |
| `skipped` | Website analysis was not requested                           |
| `error`   | Scraping failed (site unreachable, blocked, etc.)            |
| `empty`   | Site was reachable but no structured data could be extracted |

## People deduplication

People found on the website are deduplicated against people found in registry data. Website-extracted people appear under `website.extracted.people`, and registry-derived people appear under each `businesses[].people`. Deduplication merges roles for the same person so you won't see the same individual listed twice within a source.

<Note>
  Website analysis adds 10–20 seconds to the response time. For the best
  results, provide the `website` URL directly rather than relying on automatic
  discovery.
