Alchemy is a Web3 developer tool platform - other than being a very reliable node provider.
See it as the AWS of the Blockchain - it gives you a fully-fledged backend to deploy your decentralized Applications on most of the popular chains + gives you APIs to fetch data from the blockchain without having to scrape it all yourself.
Anyway, the best way to understand it is probably to test it - here's a doc that walks you through it:
