Highlight

In his LIVE Chat, Twitter & Square CEO Jack Dorsey talked about how he's able to manage two public companies, saying it all starts from his morning routine. A Business Insider reporter recently tested it out for a week, and was surprised by the difference it made in her day. Try it. 😊

If your AI product has an onboarding step that says "tell us about your business" — your users are lying to you. Not maliciously. They just write whatever sounds good in the moment, skip half the fields, and click next.

Brandfetch's Brand Context API gives you structured brand data for 50M+ brands in a single call: voice,mission, positioning, audience, competitors, all of it. Pre-fill your onboarding before the user types a word.

Ground your AI features so they stop hallucinating about the brands your LLM barely knows. It's the scraping pipeline most teams never get around to building, already built. 100 free calls, no credit card.
