We've funded CrewAI, the Leader in Enterprise Agents

We share CrewAI’s vision to change how corporations do business. CEO João Moura has stated that he sees a future where companies can “deploy autonomous workflows as easily as deploying a web app. Everything changes. Back office automation becomes standard, not special. Sales processes become self-optimizing systems, not manual workflows. Marketing campaigns become adaptive strategies, not static plans.”

At Blitzscaling Ventures, we look for companies with enduring business models that are poised to rapidly scale across their markets. While we evaluate the founding team, market, tech evaluations, and other criteria, we focus on two key blitzscaling strategies: 1) Viral effects and distribution strategies, and 2) Network effects that increase value for all and often result in user loyalty. CrewAI scores high on both.

Viral and distribution strategy: CrewAI’s open-source enterprise platform has already been adopted by thousands of enterprise developers. At the time of this post, their GitHub stars exceed 35k, demonstrating strong adoption in under two years. As a result, their open-source agentic workflows and templates spread quickly, company to company, in a grassroots manner. CrewAI also excels in distribution by working with consulting firms, system integrators, and through a partnership with HPE for on-premise solutions.

Network effects: CrewAI benefits from powerful network effects that increase value for every new user and drive loyalty. Their open-source agentic templates are continually adopted, improved, and edited by others, compounding value across the developer community. Within enterprises, adoption expands as one group implements CrewAI’s agentic solutions and other departments follow, benefiting from higher efficiency and freeing up teams for new projects. CrewAI also offers Crew Studio, a no-code platform that empowers business users—even executives—to set up agentic workflows without submitting IT tickets.

These two strategies are evident when looking at the speed of CrewAI’s growth. In less than two years, 60% of Fortune 500 companies are using CrewAI. Equally striking, CrewAI has just over 30 human employees, in part because they’ve deployed more than 300 AI agents, often powered by their own technology. An AI native culture building AI leading products.

We have high conviction that CrewAI is on the path to becoming a globally recognized blitzscaler.
