The way information on the internet is consumed is changing. It's shifting from humans searching pre‑crawled information on Google to AI agents doing real‑time targeted crawling from sources of truth. But there’s no “Google” for AI agents… yet. That’s where we come in. At Crustdata, we are building the gateway to the internet for AI agents. We already serve over 150 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.

Our mission: To be the way AI agents use and interface with the internet.

Drive onboarding and adoption: help enterprise clients operationalize Crustdata within their data stacks, CRMs, or AI pipelines

Scale documentation & tools: build technical playbooks, templates, and guides that make every future integration faster
