Why Crispy never stores your LinkedIn data

Every LinkedIn automation tool on the market has the same playbook: connect to your account, scrape your data into their database, and serve it back to you through their UI. Your connections, messages, and profile data live on someone else's servers indefinitely.

When we built Crispy, we asked: what if we didn't store anything at all?

Crispy is a stateless proxy. When your AI agent calls a tool — search for a person, send a message, check your feed — we forward the request to LinkedIn via Unipile's API, return the response, and forget it ever happened. No database table for contacts. No message archive. No profile cache.

This isn't just a privacy feature. It's an architectural decision that makes everything simpler. No data retention policies to maintain. No GDPR deletion requests to process — there's nothing to delete. No breach notification scenarios — there's nothing to breach. Your LinkedIn data stays on LinkedIn, exactly where it belongs.

The only things we do store are operational necessities: your API key hash (not the key itself), your subscription status, and usage counts for rate limiting. That's it. The entire data model fits on a napkin.

For AI agents, this is actually the ideal setup. They don't need us to maintain state — they have their own memory. They call Crispy when they need real-time LinkedIn data, process it, and move on. Stateless in, stateless out.

We believe this is the future of SaaS integrations: thin, stateless proxies that connect services without becoming another data silo. Your data, your control, zero liability.
