Tinyfish
Enterprise infrastructure for AI web agents that navigate, authenticate, extract, and transact across hundreds of live sites in parallel through a single Model Context Protocol native API.
TinyFish is enterprise infrastructure for AI web agents, founded in 2024 in Palo Alto and led by chief executive Sudheesh Nair, and it launched with forty seven million dollars in funding led by ICONIQ Capital. The premise is that much of the web's most valuable data sits behind logins, forms, and paywalls where search engines cannot reach and traditional automation fails. TinyFish deploys swarms of specialized agents that sign in, navigate, extract, and act like humans at scale, and already runs hundreds of thousands of enterprise web agents every month for customers including Google, DoorDash, Amazon, and ClassPass across hospitality, insurance, retail, and logistics.
The platform brings four capabilities under one application programming interface key and one credit pool: Search returns structured results from live pages rendered by real browsers rather than cached indexes, Fetch converts any URL into clean markdown or JSON, Browser provides stealth sessions that defeat anti bot protection, and Agent runs autonomous multi step web workflows. It is serverless, with no browsers to manage or proxies to configure, and can run up to a thousand simultaneous operations across hundreds of sites, completing in minutes what would take days by hand.
TinyFish is Model Context Protocol native, so it works with Claude, Cursor, and any compatible client, and it also offers a direct application programming interface plus integrations with tools like n8n and Vercel. Its open source AgentQL project adds an AI powered query language with Python and JavaScript software development kits, a REST endpoint, and a browser based debugger, using natural language selectors that self heal as sites change. Agents preserve state and authentication across sessions and return structured outputs to downstream systems, webhooks, and audit trails.
The platform is built for enterprise governance, emphasizing consistency, inspectability, and control through deterministic web execution and structured, auditable artifacts. In its own framing it reports an eighty one percent success rate on complex web tasks against a much lower figure for a leading consumer agent. Its main gaps for the index are that named security certifications, a self hosted deployment of the full platform, a persistent learning memory, and user facing model selection were not clearly documented, since it deliberately bundles model inference into one usage based price.

Use cases & customers
In practice
An energy company must pull invoices from hundreds of vendor portals. TinyFish agents log into 341 portals across 1,643 monthly logins, navigate multi step workflows, and return structured invoices and status updates to downstream systems automatically.
A small hotel in Japan with eight rooms and no API needs its availability on Google. A TinyFish agent signs into the booking system, reads dates and pricing, and updates the Google Hotels listing without the hotel changing anything.
An insurance marketplace collects quotes from many carriers. TinyFish handles each provider's different authentication and form structure, retrieves rates, and returns structured, comparable quotes, running many portals in parallel in a fraction of the manual time.

Research notes
Enterprise INFRASTRUCTURE for AI web agents. Palo Alto. Founded 2024. $47M Series A (ICONIQ Capital lead, Mango Capital). CEO Sudheesh Nair (ex-Nutanix president, ex-ThoughtSpot CEO — experienced enterprise exec). Marquee customers: Google, Amazon, DoorDash, ClassPass, Grubhub, Fortune 500 (hospitality/insurance/retail/logistics). 'Schools of fish' — thousands of specialized agents SWARM. Runs 100,000s+ enterprise web agents/month. FOUR products, ONE API key, ONE credit pool: Search (live web → structured JSON from real browsers, not cached), Fetch (URL → clean markdown/JSON/HTML token-efficient), Browser (stealth cloud sessions), Agent (autonomous multi-step web workflows: navigate/fill-forms/authenticate/transact/structured-results). SERVERLESS (no browsers/proxies to manage, single API), up to 1,000 PARALLEL operations across hundreds of sites, sub-250ms cold-starts, persistent-state. Stealth (login-walls/anti-bot/dynamic-rendering, residential-proxies, CAPTCHA). SEMANTIC element-finding (self-healing, not CSS-selectors). Live-web-data (behind logins/forms/paywalls, minutes-fresh). AgentQL (tinyfish-io/agentql, OPEN-SOURCE: AI-query-language + Python/JS SDKs + browser-debugger + REST-API + Langchain/Zapier/MCP + playground). Voyage-AI embeddings + MongoDB (product-matching/retrieval). 4 FULLS: Int=F (MCP-native Claude/Cursor + Cursor/n8n/Dify/OpenClaw/Vercel/Langchain/Zapier/Python/Node + web-actions + webhooks/downstream), Orch=F (autonomous agent-swarm + state/auth-preserved + 1,000-parallel across hundreds-of-sites), Ext=F (single-API + MCP-native + open-source AgentQL Python/JS-SDK/REST/debugger), Comp=F (stealth vision/semantic browser nav, authenticate/fill-forms/transact like-human, anti-bot/dynamic-rendering). 8 P's: Know=P ('AI Agent Web Grounding' live-web-context-for-LLMs + Search/Fetch + Voyage embeddings/reranking), HITL=P (inspectability/control/governance/deterministic; no runtime-approval), Sec=P (corporate-security+governance + audit-trails + Google/Amazon-customers; NO NAMED CERTS surfaced — likely SOC 2 exists but unverified, flag for later pass), Obs=P (structured-artifacts + audit-trails + inspectability + AgentQL-debugger; not full-trace/replay), Mem=P (persistent-state + auth-preserved-across-sessions; not learned-memory), Dep=P (serverless-cloud + open-source-AgentQL-tooling; core-platform cloud-only, no self-host), Trig=P (API + MCP + n8n + webhooks + monitoring-schedules), Eval=P (AgentQL-debugger + playground + benchmarks [81% vs Operator 43%] + QA-testing-support). 2 N's: Pack=N (specialized-per-use-case agents, no prebuilt-agent marketplace), Model=N (BUNDLES own LLM-inference into one price, no customer model-selection — deliberate abstraction). Deterministic-execution + audit-trails + governance = enterprise-grade. Note: like Emergence, arguably broader 'web-infra' than pure browser-agent, but Agent product IS browser-agent — category fits. Pricing: TRANSPARENT usage-based, ALL costs bundled (LLM + browsers + proxies + anti-bot); free 500-steps (no card); Starter $15/mo; usage-based + enterprise → self_serve. Domain tinyfish.ai. Score 8.0 (4F/8P/2N).
