Key points
- Floqer's agents build prospect lists using more than 100 third-party data sources.
- The company says it has over 1,000 customers and more than $1.2 million in ARR.
- Floqer plans to open-source its database technology in early 2027, pending security reviews.
What happened: Floqer, which calls itself an autonomous customer knowledge platform, pitched on the Startup Battlefield stage at TechCrunch Disrupt on Wednesday, TechCrunch reported. It sells an AI-powered database that collects, organizes and updates customer information for B2B sales and marketing teams. Users describe their target customers, and Floqer's agents search multiple sources to build lists of relevant companies and people.
The details: Floqer says it enriches accounts with more than 100 third-party data sources and uses a waterfall approach to find verified emails and phone numbers, checking one provider after another. The system monitors the web continuously so job changes, promotions and funding rounds show up in customer records. The company says customers have reported cutting prospecting time by as much as 70%. It says it has passed $1.2 million in annual recurring revenue, has more than 1,000 customers including Perplexity, Wise and AngelList, and has eight employees.
What to watch: Floqer plans to open-source the technology behind its database, targeting early 2027 pending security reviews. CEO Shivam Mahajan said some customers want to host their own data instead of keeping it in a vendor's proprietary platform, and others want to modify or build on it. The company said it is running the security reviews first because the database can hold sensitive customer information.
Background: Mahajan and Zaaheda Islam founded Floqer in 2024. The company has raised $2 million in pre-seed funding from investors including Perplexity's F7 Fund, N49P, Tidal Venture Partners and Perplexity co-founder Denis Yarats.
Our take
Sales teams evaluating prospecting tools may soon have a self-hostable option, which matters for companies that want to keep customer data out of vendor platforms.
