Introducing Alexandria and our $75M Series B
Alexandria is the knowledge library for superintelligence. It gives AI agents a common way to discover sources and retrieve information through Firecrawl, bringing together the live web, official data providers, site-specific connectors and our own indexes.
AI agents can search our Research, Developer and Government indexes, query data providers and use specialized tools to reach information beyond individual web pages. We’re continuing to add sources and build more indexes.
Across the verticals we tested, AI agents using Alexandria scored 21% higher on answer quality than those using built-in web tools. We used the same model and prompts across 845 tasks, with blind AI judging.
We raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, with participation by Altos Ventures, Nexus Venture Partners, Y Combinator, Freestyle and Offline Ventures.
We’re investing in search and Alexandria, building deeper indexes and retrieval systems and working directly with more knowledge providers. Our goal is to make useful knowledge easier to reach and worth sharing for the people who create it.
