The problem it solves

Researching companies on Crunchbase one page at a time eats up hours your sales team could spend actually selling. By the time you've copied funding rounds, industries, and locations into a spreadsheet, the list is already stale.

Who it fits

A sales or marketing team that needs a steady flow of researched B2B leads without manual data entry.

How it works

  1. You start the process by pointing it at a list of Crunchbase company pages
  2. It scrapes each page and pulls out the raw company details
  3. AI extracts structured fields like funding, industry, location, and founding year
  4. AI writes a short summary of each company
  5. It saves the structured data and summaries into a Google Sheet
What you get

Leads researched and ready for outreach

You get a steady spreadsheet of researched companies, complete with funding and industry details, ready for your sales team to review and reach out.

What you get

A structured spreadsheet of company profiles and AI-written summaries, ready for outreach or analysis.

What you need

A web scraping service, an OpenAI API key, and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
