Powered by the Business Graph

CB Insights’ agents operate on the proprietary Business Graph, a double-verified dataset covering management teams, funding rounds, partnerships, deals, earnings calls, hiring patterns, and patents across 10 million companies and 1,500 tech markets. “The quality of AI output depends entirely on the quality of data input,” said Manlio Carrelli, CEO of CB Insights. “Our agents don’t just scrape the web – they work with double-verified intelligence based on proprietary information collected from companies and their customers directly.” This ensures confident decision-making for critical business functions.

Seamless Enterprise Integration

The Team of Agents integrates seamlessly into enterprise workflows through:

  • Strategy Terminal: For comprehensive market intelligence workflows.

Clients can deploy individual agents for specific use cases or the full team for comprehensive automation, available immediately with flexible pricing.
