aid: crunchbase-data url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/crunchbase-data/refs/heads/main/apis.yml name: Crunchbase kind: company description: >- Crunchbase is a leading source of private and public company, funding, and investor data - firmographics, funding rounds, acquisitions, investors, people, and events across the global startup and business landscape. The Crunchbase Data API (REST v4, base https://api.crunchbase.com/v4/data) exposes this graph programmatically through four surfaces - Entity Lookup, Search, Autocomplete, and Deleted Entities (deltas) - for web intelligence, reference data, market research, sales and investment prospecting, and enrichment use cases. It is a read-only RESTful service authenticated with an API key (user_key query parameter or X-cb-user-key header). Access is subscription-gated: the full API requires a Crunchbase Enterprise or Applications license, with a reduced Basic API available to Crunchbase Basic plan holders. image: https://kinlane-images.s3.amazonaws.com/shared/apis-json/apis-json-logo.jpg tags: - Company Data - Web Intelligence - Funding Data - Firmographics - B2B Data - Investor Data - Reference Data - Fortune 1000 created: '2026-07-11' modified: '2026-07-11' specificationVersion: '0.19' apis: - aid: crunchbase-data:crunchbase-data-entity-lookup-api name: Crunchbase Entity Lookup API tags: - Company Data - Firmographics - Reference Data image: https://kinlane-images.s3.amazonaws.com/shared/apis-json/apis-json-logo.jpg humanURL: https://data.crunchbase.com/docs/using-entity-lookup-apis baseURL: https://api.crunchbase.com/v4/data properties: - url: https://data.crunchbase.com/docs/using-entity-lookup-apis type: Documentation - url: https://data.crunchbase.com/docs/using-the-api type: APIReference - url: openapi/crunchbase-data-openapi.yml type: OpenAPI - url: collections/crunchbase-data.postman_collection.json type: PostmanCollection - url: collections/crunchbase-data.opencollection.json type: OpenCollection description: >- Retrieve a single entity from a core collection - organizations, people, funding_rounds, acquisitions, and more - by UUID or permalink, selecting fields with field_ids and related data with card_ids.
