About Crustdata
The way information on the internet is consumed is changing. It's shifting from humans searching pre-crawled information on Google via point and click to AI agents doing real-time targeted crawling from sources of truth. The interface, the workflow, and the density of retrieved data and its fidelity, which worked for humans, doesn't work for AI agents.
At Crustdata, we are building the gateway to the internet for AI agents. In simple terms, we're building the APIs for AI Agents to access real-time data from sources of truth. We already serve dozens of enterprise customers, are profitable and growing very fast. We're backed by some of the best investors in Silicon Valley including Y Combinator, General Catalyst, SV Angel, A Capital and Liquid 2 Ventures among others.
