Unified web intelligence API that delivers real-time people, company, news, social, and web signals for AI agents and GTM teams.
The Hog is a unified web intelligence API built for AI agents and modern go-to-market teams. It unifies search, enrichment, monitoring, scraping, and deep research across people, companies, news, social signals, sentiment, and the open web behind a single credit-based endpoint.
Multi-provider waterfall logic routes each query to the best available source and falls back automatically, returning structured, timestamped, confidence-ranked data that agents can reason over directly.
