Earlier this year, we launched Find AI v1:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40801494. It was a tool for searching LinkedIn-style data with natural language queries. It worked well for tech-focused searches, but the dataset was small and queries were limited.
With v3 (yes a 2 version improvement), we’ve overhauled everything. Our new algorithm uses deep research agents combining multiple data sources and can search over 1B+ profiles (more than LinkedIn). The new version also handles more nuanced searches, like:
- For selling GPU Cloud services: “Companies that have done a Series A hiring for Pytorch”
- For SDR’s: "AI companies that raised $20M+ Series A."
- For VC Partners: "Ex-OpenAI employees founding 'stealth' startups."
- For IR Professionals: "Head of alternatives investing at large private wealth firms."
- For Recruiters: "Fullstack engineers experienced with Go and Svelte."
We deleted all our old code (Ruby on Rails) and rebuilt the entire stack with Go + Svelte 5 (which we love) for speed and scalability. It’s now 10x faster, with a new UI and features like threaded searches.
We’re also launching an API, so you can integrate Find AI into your own apps. The API has also launched as an integration in Clay—learn more here: https://www.clay.com/university/lesson/find-ai-integration-o....
We started building Find AI to help founders, recruiters, and investors find the right people faster. Try it out here: https://usefind.ai/.
Would love your feedback and questions!
