Investment thesis

Airbyte is a data integration company built on the belief that only an open-source approach can solve the long tail of data integration, since a community can build and maintain connectors no single vendor would prioritize. Founded out of Y Combinator in 2020, it grew from 6 connectors to 700+ and scaled cloud infrastructure to handle billions of records daily. The company is now expanding from data replication into agentic data infrastructure, treating AI agents as primary consumers of enterprise data through its Airbyte Agents product.
