I kept running into the same problem while doing outreach: finding fresh AI/SaaS startups takes way too long, and most lead tools are priced like full SaaS subscriptions.
So I manually curated a simple database of 700+ AI and SaaS startups.
It includes:
- Company names
- Websites
- Categories
- Short descriptions
- Source/context
No dashboard. No subscription. Just a clean CSV for people doing outreach, sales, agency prospecting, or market research.
The idea is simple: instead of paying $99+/month for a lead tool, you get a focused startup list once for $19.

Honest question for the community:
What would make this more useful?
I’m considering adding:
- Founder names
- LinkedIn URLs
- Funding stage
- Email/contact info
- More filtering by niche
Would love feedback before I expand it.

Quick update: I cleaned the database into a v2 version. It now includes more than just company name + website. The CSV has: - Company Name - Segment - Description - Website - Domain - Source - Lead Type - ICP Fit - Outreach Angle - Data Quality I also cleaned tracking links, added direct domains where possible, and added data quality notes instead of pretending every row is perfect forever. Still keeping it simple: one CSV, no subscription, $19 once. Would love feedback on whether the “ICP Fit” and “Outreach Angle” columns are useful, or if there’s another field people would want before doing outreach.
