   Data extraction software retrieves structured, poorly structured, and unstructured data from a variety of sources, enabling businesses to identify and extract data for business intelligence, improve the analysis of unstructured information, and make better use of data that would otherwise go unutilized.

### Core Capabilities of Data Extraction Software

To qualify for inclusion in the Data Extraction category, a product must:

- Extract structured, poorly structured, and unstructured data
- Pull data from multiple sources
- Export extracted data in multiple readable formats

### Common Use Cases for Data Extraction Software

Data and business intelligence teams use extraction tools to collect and prepare data from diverse sources for downstream analysis. Common use cases include:

- Extracting data from websites, databases, documents, and APIs for aggregation and analysis
- Automating data collection workflows that previously required manual copy-and-paste or export processes
- Feeding extracted data into transformation and quality pipelines for business intelligence use cases

### How Data Extraction Software Differs from Other Tools

Data extraction tools work well with [data quality software](https://www.g2.com/categories/data-quality) and [data preparation software](https://www.g2.com/categories/data-preparation), which help clean and organize data after extraction. They are often considered similar to [OCR software](https://www.g2.com/categories/ocr), but OCR tools focus specifically on extracting data from documents and images using document processing techniques such as scanning PDFs and forms, while data extraction platforms support a broader range of sources and data types beyond document-based extraction.

### Insights from G2 on Data Extraction Software
