Raycaster recently launched!

Launch YC: Raycaster - Private Investigator for High-Stakes Deals
"Next-gen research machines for growth teams."

tl;dr - While others send "Congrats on Series B!" emails, they find the golden nuggets that actually close deals. Teaser

Try it: First 5 people to email the founders here get free intel on 5 dream accounts. Book demo.

Founded by Levi LianAnthony Humay

Anthony (CTO)

  • AI/ML at Meta & Apple, designer at heart through Snap

Levi (CEO)

  • Built LLM & developed GTM expertise at Uber, Intuit and a Series A startup (acquired by Zoom)

The Problem: Generic Data Doesn't Close Deals

Standard tools show you: "Company X just announced Series B. Someone visited your website."

Raycaster tells you: "Company X uses Amplitude for their experimentation (verified via API network calls). CTO discussed product velocity bottlenecks on a recent podcast. New Data Science Director is championing feature flags. Perfect timing for your experimentation platform."

Enterprise sellers waste 20+ hours/week hunting for such insights manually because:

  1. Real, differentiated intel is buried in technical docs, scientific papers, and conference talks
  2. Going in unprepared = instant credibility loss
  3. Generic data doesn't help land $100K+ deals

The Solution: Your Elite Sales Intelligence Team

How Raycaster does it:

  • Deep Company Intelligence
    • Hidden tech stack details (e.g., they found Everlane uses Algolia through checking network calls)
    • Strategic insights from obscure sources (e.g., lead scientist’s joint publication sponsored by the parent company)

  • Real People Insights
    • Found C-Suite's AI FOMO through podcast → Led to CEO meeting
    • Built custom account plans based on different roles and company priorities, not generic spray and pray
