Data is Venture Capital's ultimate competitive advantage

Investors that systematically leverage data are outperforming all others.

Earlybird

Data-driven sourcing and intelligent screening will allow VCs to identify the most promising entrepreneurs more efficiently and more effectively, at the right point in time, and wherever they are. Geography and “warm intros” will eventually become irrelevant.” - source

Signalfire

Beacon tracks the performance of more than 6 million companies in real-time by drawing upon 10milion data sources, such as academic publications, patent registries, open-source contributions, regulatory filings, company webpages, sales data, appstore rankings, social networks, and even raw credit card data.” - source

EQT Motherbrain

Firms that can systematically capture and leverage data, not only external and performance data, but also human predictions, judgements and decisions, will be well positioned to achieve a future competitive advantage. We started this years ago, and we’re not slowing down.” - source

Seven reasons for StartupRadar

Ambitious investors leverage StartupRadar to 10x their efficiency when sourcing startups.

Not another platform: bring your own workflow

We offer a simple, well-documented REST-API you can use however you like.

  • No need to use some sophisticated SaaS tool.
  • No need to share your data with anyone.
  • Just integrate it into your current stack.

Building own scrapers is expensive and inefficient

The most successful funds are using technology to become data driven. But building sophisticated technology with 2% management fee is hard. We build scrapers and intelligence for you, so you can focus on making the best deals and supporting your portfolio.

Act and decide on data, don't search for it

You can only screen a limited number of sources every few weeks. Our scrapers check 850+ sources and 100k pages daily. With our API, you can fetch the newest discoveries instantly and don't lose access by being too late.

Startup Platforms and Company Registers are too late

After three years of building an early-stage fund from scratch, one thing was obvious to us: when startups appear at company registers or startup platforms, it's already too late. At this point, you've lost your edge to get into a hot deal early.

Don't re-invent the wheel, leverage our expertise instead

We've been building crawlers and scrapers for the last ten years and technology for investors for more than five years. Don't waste time duplicating that effort and use our data instead. Save the time, budget, and maintenance efforts.

Keep expertise in-house

You leverage our data, but don't need to feed data back. This way, your expertise and algorithms stay inhouse and you don't give away your competitive advantage when sourcing the best deals.

Don't pay for a platform you don't need

Competitors require you to use a platform you don't need. And you always give away important insights to them. Which deals you look at and even how you rate startups. We just provide an API, no UI, no tracking, just data.

Integrates with the tools investors love

With our flexible API, we can integrate with almost every solution on the market.
