Crunchbase API Scraper — Company & Funding Data API

Crunchbase locked their API behind enterprise sales calls years ago. Every startup founder, every SDR, every VC analyst who needs company data programmatically hits the same wall: “Talk to our team.” The data sits right there on the website — you can see it, you just can’t use it at scale.

And the scraper you built last month? Already broken.

What Is the FlyByAPIs Crunchbase API Scraper?

FlyByAPIs Crunchbase API Scraper is a REST API that returns structured JSON data from Crunchbase — company profiles, funding rounds, investors, people, acquisitions, IPOs, growth scores, tech stacks, and risk signals — through 37 dedicated endpoints.

It handles Crunchbase’s anti-bot systems server-side. You get reliable data without managing proxies or scrapers.

Available on RapidAPI starting at $0/month with 100 free requests. Building pipelines, enriching CRMs, or screening deal flow? This gives you programmatic access starting at $14.99/month. No contracts. No “let’s schedule a call.”

FlyByAPIs Crunchbase API Scraper gives you 37 endpoints of Crunchbase data — company profiles, funding rounds, investors, growth scores — starting at $14.99/month. No enterprise contract, no scraper maintenance, no per-field billing.

The Problem: Crunchbase Data Is Expensive to Access Programmatically

The data is public — the access is what costs a fortune. You don’t need Crunchbase’s permission.

Why Other Approaches to Crunchbase Data Fail

How the Crunchbase API Scraper Works

37 endpoints. Structured JSON. One API key.

Send a request with a company slug, get clean data back. No scraper to maintain. No enterprise contract. No per-field billing — one request returns all available fields.

FlyByAPIs handles Crunchbase’s anti-bot systems server-side — proxy rotation, session management, CAPTCHA handling. When Crunchbase changes their frontend, we patch the parser within hours (active data-drift monitoring).

Who Built This — and Why It Stays Running

FlyByAPIs runs web data extraction APIs against hostile platforms — Amazon Product Data API (22 marketplaces), Google Search API , Google Maps Extractor API , and more.

The Crunchbase API Scraper is built on the same infrastructure that keeps our other 5 APIs running:

• Active data-drift monitoring — automated systems detect source changes within hours
• Production-grade uptime — the same reliability standards as our Amazon and Google APIs
• 1,000+ developers already using the platform
• 5M+ API requests served across the platform
• 37 verified endpoints on this Crunchbase API alone — all tested and returning data

All 37 Endpoints — What’s Inside

Extractable Data Fields

Every company request returns structured JSON. Here’s what /company/details gives you:

This is just /company/details — one of 37 endpoints. People, funding rounds, investors, acquisitions, IPOs, hubs, and events each return their own full data set.

What You Get

• 37 REST API endpoints covering companies, people, funding, exits, events, hubs, and taxonomy
• Structured JSON responses with consistent wrapper — no HTML parsing, no data cleaning needed
• Free tier: 100 requests/month to test before spending anything
• Server-side anti-detection — proxy rotation, session management, CAPTCHA handling, all invisible to you
• Data-drift monitoring — when Crunchbase changes their site, the parser is patched within hours
• No per-field billing — one request, all available fields included in the response
• Pay-per-overage on paid tiers — never hard-capped mid-enrichment job
• RapidAPI playground for testing endpoints before writing a single line of code
• Works with any language — Python, Node.js, cURL, Ruby, PHP, Go — standard REST

Use Cases

Get Started in Minutes

1. Sign up on RapidAPI — it’s free.
2. Subscribe to the Basic plan (100 free requests/month).
3. Copy your API key from the RapidAPI dashboard.
4. Make your first request using the code example above.

Pricing

Compare that to Crunchbase’s official API: enterprise-only, sales-gated, priced for large organizations. Here you start free and scale as you grow. No per-field billing — every request returns all available fields at the same cost.

No Contracts. No Lock-In.

No annual commitments. Cancel anytime from RapidAPI — no “retention call,” no hoops.

The free tier gives you 100 requests to test every endpoint. If the data doesn’t match what you need, you’ve lost nothing.

One More Thing

Crunchbase isn’t going to make their API more accessible. They’ve been tightening restrictions every year.

The teams that have automated company intelligence are already building on top of it. Every week on manual research or broken scrapers is a week your pipeline isn’t growing.
