👋 Hey Product Hunters!
We're Will and Jeff, founders of Exa. We’ve spent the last year powering semantic search for devs and enterprises. Along the way we noticed a huge pain: everyone still scrapes, cleans and merges spreadsheets just to build a simple lead list or recruiting list.
Websets is our answer. It allows you to find things that were unfindable with traditional search. Type a natural-language query (“AI-first SaaS companies hiring senior backend engineers in Spain”), and in seconds you get:
• Curated results from the live web (no stale databases)
• Automatic enrichment - emails, funding, category them, finding other links
• One-click export to CSV or to share!
👇 Try it with these public examples
• 500 AI Agent Startups, sorted by funding round, category and more: https://websets.exa.ai/cm9km5tub...
• CMOs or CEOs of consumer brands, who played college sports: https://websets.exa.ai/cm9m2reyi...
• Marketing agency based in California who's mentioned an interest in "personas": https://websets.exa.ai/cm9sr22kj...
🚀 Product Hunt special: Use code PRODUCTHUNT for a 14-day Pro trial!
We’d love your feedback on:
- Search quality for edge-case queries
- Which creative enrichments you discovered and what data integrations would be helpful
- What workflow integrations you’d like next
Thanks for checking out Websets - can’t wait to see what you use it for!
Wow! Sounds super cool. I'm gonna give it a try. Congrats on the launch anyway! All the best

@german_merlo1 Thanks Germán! What's a query you're interested in running? We'll drop you a Webset!
Congratulations, I really love the customizable AI column! The idea is stunning.
I found out that myself was getting stressed by confusing results with a lot of texts without any layout, just now.
I hope I can get more styles like timeline or something else.(like notion DB's various viewers)
You know, tables may not always be the best way.
Good luck! I really love your product.

@pritraveler That's amazing to hear! What's a query that's interesting to you? We can run one for you and drop the link here
@exaailabs What I mean is about the way of visualization. For example, if I can see the timeline about '2025 events held in OO convention center' , or a bar chart of 'highest building in the world', it'll be much more helpful!
