So I pulled the actual data via the Crustdata API and here is what Anthropic's marketing org really looks like... Over 126 people in total work in marketing @AnthropicAI what is impressive though is that he ran the a typically huge sub-team!

This is INSANE, Anthropic ran its marketing with basically one person. Austin lau, a non-technical growth lead, was running paid search, paid social, email, and seo solo. Here’s the workflow: > export ad CSVs into Claude Code > AI flags underperforming ads > agents generate new headlines + descriptions > Figma auto-swaps copy across 100 ad templates > MCP server pulls live Meta data The results: > ad creation went from 2 hours to 15 minutes. > total marketing output grew 10×. > conversion rates landed 41% above industry average. One person doing what used to take an entire marketing team.

we lost 2 days integrating a new billing system because assumptions weren’t tested. lesson: when something is critical, don’t assume. don’t translate terminology in your head. don’t infer behavior. small assumptions compound into blockers. it also reinforced how important strong solution teams are. at Crustdata, we know customers plug us into critical workflows - that’s why we do onboarding + check-in calls to prevent exactly this.

Now you can build your own AI recruiter in minutes with Crustdata's web search and fetch APIs See what I built in just 5 minutes - copied the docs for the 4 different Crustdata's APIs : web search, web fetch, people search and people enrich - put them into Claude code - asked it to build an AI agent that chains them together to find and deep research on people - in minutes I had an AI agent that can find me top researchers at foundation model labs If you are building the next best AI recruiter, reach out and we would love to help you get to the top!

It’s true: you can do a lot more with much smaller teams and you can go faster and farther than ever
Abhilash Chowdhary@TheChowdhary

Our group partner @garrytan told this 6 months ago And we are realizing it today! - Build more software over hiring more people - Building software that works for internal tooling is getting easy - You can now hit $10M arr with a team of less than 20 people - You don't need to raise $ XX M to hit $10M arr We are still <20 and on track to hit the arr goal before the end of this year Customers are pulling the product out of our hands We still have 4 spots left for hungry builders who want to own the outcomes in this journey we’re hiring for following roles - Reverse engineering / web security - Fullstack engineer w/ eye for design - Forward deployed engineer / Account Executive with CS background

How it started and how it's going :) Been more than 2 years since I met @chrispisarski on YC co-founder match Sometimes having great co-founders makes everything possible Me, Chris and @ManmohitG hacked together for more than 6 months before going all in on Crustdata last year Good things do take patience, focus, trust and hard work Upwards and onwards!
