3 Key Points

  1. 1

    What happened: AmpleData, a Y Combinator-backed company, released a tool and API that takes a list (companies, papers, properties, anything with a name) and fills in spreadsheet columns you define in plain English. The system dispatches web search, crawls sources, uses an AI to extract answers, resolves conflicts across sources, and returns each enriched cell linked back to its source URL with a confidence score attached.

  2. 2

    Why it matters: For business researchers and analysts, this replaces the manual workflow of pasting rows into ChatGPT or manually hunting for answers. Because every cell is cited and includes a confidence score, you can spot-check weak results and re-run with a refined prompt. Unlike comparable tools, you pay only for cells you enrich — no seat licenses, no minimums, no annual contracts — with pricing starting at $29/month for 1,000 cells.

  3. 3

    What to watch: AmpleData offers three plans: Free (100 cells), Starter at $29/month (1,000 cells/month), and Pro at $99/month (5,000 cells/month). Developers can generate API keys and drive the enrichment engine over HTTP with no UI in the loop, billing against the same per-cell rate as the app.
