Key points
- Floqer plans to open-source its autonomous customer knowledge database in early 2027, once security reviews are finished.
- The startup reports more than $1.2 million in ARR, roughly tenfold revenue growth in a year, and over 1,000 customers.
- Its agents build prospect lists and refresh records when people change jobs or companies raise funding; customers cite up to 70% less prospecting time.
Why it matters for marketers: Sales and marketing teams may soon be able to run agent-driven prospect research on infrastructure they control, instead of depending on a closed vendor database.
Floqer, a startup that sells AI agents for B2B prospect research, told TechCrunch it intends to release the technology behind its autonomous customer knowledge database as open source. The company is aiming for early 2027, pending security reviews. It is pitching on the Startup Battlefield stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026.
The product lets users describe the companies and contacts they want, then sends agents across the web to assemble lists. It enriches accounts using more than 100 third-party data sources and checks providers one after another to find verified emails or phone numbers. It also watches for changes such as promotions, job moves and new funding rounds, and can update customer records accordingly.
Floqer says it has passed $1.2 million in annual recurring revenue, with revenue up about tenfold over the past year. It reports more than 1,000 customers, including Perplexity, Wise and AngelList, and says customers have reported cutting prospecting time by as much as 70%. Those figures come from the company. It has raised $2 million in pre-seed funding and has eight employees.
For marketing and revenue teams, the open-source move speaks to a common concern about where customer data lives. CEO Shivam Mahajan said some customers want to keep data on their own systems, while others want to modify the technology or build on it. Because the database can hold sensitive information, the company is running security reviews first.
Teams evaluating agent-based enrichment should watch the release timing, what license Floqer chooses, and how the hosted product differs from the open version. Mahajan said the current database is available to a limited audience because of demand the team can serve.
