ThreadMoat exposes its startup, investor, customer and exit data to the AI client you already use, along with patents, open roles, company news, archived company pages and segment sizing. Your model, your questions, our data, five records at a time.

Why it is different
Curated, not scraped
Every company is hand-scored by a domain analyst, with revenue and headcount estimates that general databases do not carry.
Connected, not flat
Customers, investors and exits are linked to each startup. Reverse lookups answer who sells to whom and who backs whom.
Grounded, with caveats
Structured JSON only. The model cites what the data says and flags what it does not.
Metered, never dumped
Five records per call, 200 calls per hour, no list-all tool. Enforced in code, not in a prompt.
“This rich info doesn't exist online. The first question surfaced a few companies I knew about, and a few I didn't. The broader connectivity is a literal goldmine.”
