Elevator Pitch

AI models need live data access but existing APIs lack page content, outlinks, and edit history. Bootstrap comprehensive, vertically-focused web indexes with parsed content and real-time updates.

Full Description

The Problem

AI applications need access to web data, but current options are limited:

  • Search APIs: Return URLs but not content
  • Scraping: Brittle, expensive, often blocked
  • Common Crawl: Stale and incomplete
  • No structure: Raw HTML, not parsed and organized content

The Solution

Build web data infrastructure for AI:

  • Comprehensive indexing: Full page content, not just URLs
  • Structured parsing: Clean, organized content extraction
  • Relationships: Outlinks, citations, references
  • History: Track changes over time
  • Real-time updates: Fresh data, not stale crawls
  • Vertical focus: Deep coverage of specific domains

Why Vertical Focus

Trying to index the entire web is expensive and unnecessary. Start with vertically-focused indexes:

  • Academic papers and citations
  • News and current events
  • Business and company information
  • Product and e-commerce data

The Opportunity

Every AI application needs data. The company that provides clean, fresh, comprehensive web data will be infrastructure for the AI industry.
