How this service works
Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.
Output

Example use cases
Track competitor funding news
“Search Crunchbase for the last 30 days of news articles mentioning 'Series B' that link to Stripe or Plaid — give me up to 200 results with full article text.”
Monitor startup category news
“Fetch the latest 100 Crunchbase articles in the 'venture' category published between 2024-01-01 and 2024-03-31 so I can see what funding rounds were announced this quarter.”
Research a specific company's press coverage
“Get all Crunchbase news articles from the past 6 months that mention Anthropic — up to 500 articles, include the full body text so I can summarize the coverage.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.scrapeforagents.tech/v1/crunchbase?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured Crunchbase news article data filtered by company, topic, date range, or category. Prefer this over general web scrapers when you specifically want Crunchbase-sourced startup and venture capital news with structured metadata. Note that this retrieves news articles, not company/organization profile data.
Side effects
- Empty result set if no articles match the filters — not charged
- Invalid date format returns an error
- Company URL not recognized on Crunchbase returns no results
- Exceeding maxItems limit of 4000 returns a validation error
- Network timeout on large result sets
