🔥 The API to search, scrape, and interact with the web for AI github.com/firecrawl/firecra…

AI
We have used Firecrawl since they launched. When we built Are you found by AI it went in at the first commit. This week we joined the Firecrawl startup program. We read a customer's site the way an AI reads it. A plain fetch gets you a challenge screen or a JS shell. Scrape renders the real page from the right country, Map finds the about and services pages, Extract pulls who they actually are. An AI is only as good as the context you give it. Plenty more to build on top of it.

Built Attest for the @convex All Gas Hackathon 🚦 An assistant on your inbox that says yes to a verified recruiter or a $20 invoice and no to the SSN scam and the unverified $5k wire. It verifies who actually sent each email, so your agent can act for you without getting fooled. No LLM in the decision path. Built on @convex + @OpenAI + @Firecrawldev + @agentmail dynamic-egret-864.convex.sit…

Bankr Builder Spotlight @ZaibatsuWagies ZAIBATSU is building the wage economy of Robinhood Chain. Zaibatsu Wagies is a collection where NFTs don't sit in wallets — they clock in for work. Holders burn $ZAIBATSU to activate a Wagie, and every clocked-in Wagie starts earning $GME wages from real trading fees, streamed through a fully automated onchain payroll. Higher tiers, bigger paychecks. The whole machine runs itself: trading fees are collected, converted, and paid out hour by hour with no manual steps, and secondary royalties flow back to clocked-in Wagies as ETH through WagePool. Hold and do nothing, earn nothing — clock in, get paid. Track the payroll live at zaibatsuwagies.com

Read my book, Freedom of Money. From my childhood to founding Binance, challenges we faced, wandering the Earth, stories (from my perspective) about Luna/UST, FTX/SBF, dealing with US DOJ, SEC, going through jail (as the only person in US history to ever go to jail for a single violation of BSA), then full and unconditional pardon, and more... Audiobook: audible.com/pd/B0GZ4MS1QL English: a.co/d/08NMxBOH Chinese: a.co/d/01f7iQTn All proceeds go to Charity. First IRL book signing event in Dubai soon. Due to limited physical books available, will make the first event a small one.

the cleanest crawl is use FireCrawl. Let minimize noise
The hardest problem in agentic AI isn't reasoning — it's the web. Most AI agents fail in production because they can't actually use the internet. The return policy lives in a PDF. The shipping calculator is a multi-step form. Product specs sit behind a tabbed interface that only loads after a click. To a human, the site works fine. To the AI trying to read it, half the site doesn't exist. Firecrawl (151K stars, pushed today) is building the infrastructure layer underneath: - Search: finds actual content, not URL lists - Scrape: renders JS, handles accordions, tabs, lazy-loaded sections - Interact: clicks "load more", fills forms, navigates menus, logs in This is what makes agents actually useful in production. Lovable, Replit, and Zapier use it. Shopify's CEO invested after using it as a customer. The key insight: the next step for AI agents isn't smarter reasoning. It's the ability to navigate the live internet the way a human does. Models are already smart enough — the web just wasn't built for them to read. github.com/firecrawl/firecra…

Hate to break it to you but Claude Code cant read PDFs, word or excel files without using python libraries. But if you use it with Firecrawl...

Applications are now open for the 2026 Paradigm Fellowship: a 4-day retreat for young people who are obsessively good at something technical. For our fourth year, we're expanding to welcome builders across every frontier — AI, robotics, energy, bio, prediction markets, or something we haven't thought of. Last year's cohort came from 10 countries. Some were undergrads, some were dropouts, some were founders, some came from OpenAI, SpaceX, Citadel, and Kalshi. The format is simple: firesides, whiteboarding sessions, and time to hack. What makes it special is what happens in between, and after. Fellows have met cofounders, started companies, and gone on to raise from Paradigm and others. I was a fellow before joining Paradigm, the retreat was a transformative trip for me, and I met some of my closest friends through the program. Apply by June 8th. Retreat runs August 12–15th.
