St. Joseph Inc. (OTCID: STJO), a Salt Lake City-based company, today unveiled the public beta of Fastbase AI Business Search, a new AI-powered business search platform. The beta, available on fastbase.com, marks the first live product in Fastbase's new generation of AI-driven search solutions. Fastbase AI Business Search allows users to search for companies using natural-language queries, rather than relying on traditional company databases, industry codes, and predefined filters. This innovative approach enables users to describe the companies they are looking for in their own words, and the platform automatically translates these descriptions into relevant search criteria.
Fastbase AI Business Search is designed to be particularly useful for users seeking specific types of companies, such as venture capital firms in London or pharmaceutical companies in the United States. For example, a user could search for "Venture capital in London" and receive a list of 1,179 relevant companies, or search for "Pharma companies in the United States" and receive a list of 641 relevant companies. Users can then refine their search results by adding additional filters such as state, business role, or keywords.
The beta is built around a three-step workflow. First, users describe the companies they are looking for in their own words. Fastbase AI then interprets the intent behind the query and applies matching filters to the database. The results are scored for relevance, and users can preview the top matches. Finally, users can unlock and download the full list of relevant companies by making a single payment, either in CSV or Excel format.
The pay-per-search model for Fastbase AI Business Search charges $0.20 per company found, with the total cost shown before payment and verified before downloads are enabled. This model is designed to be transparent and user-friendly, allowing users to quickly and accurately find the companies they need without the need for extensive filtering.
Fastbase AI Business Search represents a significant advancement in the field of business information search, as it allows users to ask a business question in plain language and receive relevant results. This approach differs from traditional business databases, which require users to select specific industries, classifications, or filters. By using natural-language queries, Fastbase AI Business Search enables users to perform increasingly specific searches, covering industries, products, services, geography, and company characteristics through a single query.
Fastbase AI Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of St. Joseph Inc., is developing additional products as part of its platform. These include AI Buyer Intent, which helps companies identify potential customers based on business search intent and interest in specific products, services, and solutions, and AI Market Discovery, which uses AI and information derived from company websites to help businesses identify potential markets, customer segments, and prospects. The company also plans to progress toward a broader commercial launch of the platform.
The release states these figures:
