Summary
Data powers almost everything we do online. Booking a flight. Shopping online. Training AI models. Comparing prices. Even understanding global events. In this conversation, Yoel Israel sits down with Or Lenchner, CEO of Bright Data, to explore the massive infrastructure behind public web data and why access to information has become one of the most valuable assets in tech today. Or shares how Bright Data grew into a platform used by more than 20,000 customers, why Meta took the company to court, how they won, and what it takes to collect public information at global scale. He also explains why he believes data is becoming as essential as water, electricity, or oil in the modern economy.
