Description

Freebase is an online knowledge base created by Metaweb Technologies, Inc. and acquired by Google in 2010. It provides an open, collaboratively edited database of related information about people, places, things, and concepts. The information is stored in a structured data format, and is accessible through an API and web query language. The goal of Freebase is to create a comprehensive, accurate, and freely available source of information that can be used by anyone. Freebase has been used to power applications such as Google Knowledge Graph and other search engine results, providing users with additional information about a given topic. Freebase also serves as a platform for developers to create applications and services that leverage the data.
