Top Data Startups in 2027

When’s the last time you completed an online form that was fun? Audiences love Typeform because it’s intuitive, incredibly engaging, and dare we say, enjoyable to interact with. Because of this, Typeform gets completion rates up to 4x higher than regular old forms. This makes data collection a breeze for entrepreneurs, researchers, educators, event planners, and anyone interested in getting closer to their audience. What’s the future of online data collection? Will it be voice? How will machine learning play a role? Is there a place for augmented reality? What about holographic technology? At Typeform, these are some of the questions we’re grappling with. Why? Because we want to be the best at conversational data collection. That means lots of experimentation. And it means working on problems that don’t exist—yet. Typeform is leading the future of conversational data collection. Shape the industry with us—and help make the web a little more human.

LH2 AI Labs is building the post-training infrastructure for frontier AI. We connect private, high-quality institutional datasets and vetted domain experts to the pipelines of frontier AI labs and enterprises, across coding, computer use, agentic workflows, medical, audio, and company operations. Frontier models have already learned from most of the public web. The next capability gains will come from data and environments grounded in real production work: tasks with meaningful state, reliable verification, realistic tools, and reward signals that can't be easily gamed. That's the problem we're built to solve. Most of our work sits in post-training: supervised fine-tuning data, preference data for RLHF, RL environment construction, and domain-specific evaluations that expose real failure modes. We also supply pre-training data where what's needed is genuine distributional novelty rather than scale. Our vision is to make high-quality post-training data as readily available to frontier models as compute is today. We're founded by second-time founders who have built and sold companies before, and we're based in Bengaluru. We're hiring engineers and researchers to build RL environments, model-breaking tasks, and evaluation systems. This is a chance to join early and shape how the next generation of AI models is trained.

Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data - the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 150k+ GitHub stars, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started. We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves - no hiding behind process or headcount. This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web.
