## Pricing

from $1.00 / 1,000 company intelligence records

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Dealroom Company Intelligence Scraper

Dealroom Company Intelligence Scraper collects Dealroom market-map, company lookup, funding signal, and newly founded startup records into normalized JSON. It supports Dealroom list URLs, company URLs, market-map ids, company name lookup, live signal feeds, sorting, capped runs, and optional connector export.

### Why use it

- Source startup and scaleup lists from public Dealroom market maps.
- Resolve company names to Dealroom profile URLs and metadata availability flags.
- Track public funding and market signals for research workflows.
- Export clean records to CRM, warehouse, spreadsheet, or MCP-connected apps.
- Run predictable samples with one finite default cap.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `mode` | string | `marketmaps` | Collection mode: market-map search, market-map companies, company lookup, URLs, live signals, or just-founded startups. |
| `startUrls` | array | empty | Dealroom company, list, or landscape URLs. |
| `searchQuery` | string | empty | Search term for public market-map discovery. |
| `marketmapIds` | array | `landscape-53885` | Market-map ids or Dealroom list URLs. |
| `companyNames` | array | `OpenAI`, `Anthropic` | Company names to resolve through public Dealroom indexes. |
| `includeNews` | boolean | `true` | Mark whether news metadata is available where lookup results expose it. |
| `includeSentiment` | boolean | `true` | Mark whether sentiment metadata is available where lookup results expose it. |
| `sortBy` | string | `source` | Source order, company name, newest launch year, or highest funding first. |
| `maxItems` | integer | `20` | The only finite default cap. Set `0` for unlimited. |
| `limit` | integer | empty | Compatibility alias for competitor-style inputs. |
| `maxPages` | integer | `0` | No page limit by default. The run stops at Max items. |
| `pageSize` | integer | `50` | Page size for market-map search and signal modes. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify datacenter | Dealroom feeds usually work with datacenter or direct routes. Residential can raise cost. |

### Example input

```json
{
  "mode": "urls",
  "startUrls": [
    "https://app.dealroom.co/lists/53885",
    "https://app.dealroom.co/companies/openai"
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "sortBy": "name"
}
````

### Output

Each item contains the competitor-compatible envelope fields `type`, `id`, and `url`, plus normalized company groups:

- `company_identity`
- `market_and_product_profile`
- `growth_and_traction`
- `funding_and_financials`
- `investors_and_ownership`
- `locations_and_operations`
- `web_and_social_presence`
- `news_and_signals`
- `source_record`

The actor preserves the original public source object in `source_record` so downstream users can access source-specific fields without waiting for schema updates.

### MCP connector export

The optional MCP connector inputs send a concise copy of each saved record into your connected apps. Authorize a connector under Apify Settings and select it in `mcpConnectors`. For Notion, also provide `notionParentPageUrl`.

Connector export is a side channel only. The complete JSON record always stays in the Apify dataset, and connector failures do not change scraping results.

### Connection guidance

The default route is designed for Dealroom feeds and normally does not need residential proxy traffic. If a direct or free-plan environment is rate-limited, enable Apify Proxy. Residential proxy selection may increase cost and should be used only when repeated source errors indicate it is necessary.

### Pricing

This actor is configured for pay per event with a lower per-record headline price than the referenced Dealroom competitor:

- Actor start: `$0.08`
- Dataset item: `$0.002` per saved record
- News and sentiment enrichment: `$0.0008` per saved record when enabled

### Notes

Dealroom public endpoints can expose a capped sample for some market maps. The actor reports the source payload in `source_record` so users can inspect source totals, returned counts, and cap notes.

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

Choose how to collect records.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Dealroom company, list, or landscape URLs. Company URLs are resolved through Dealroom company indexes; list and landscape URLs collect market-map companies.

## `searchQuery` (type: `string`):

Search Dealroom market maps by title, description, tag, or keyword.

## `marketmapIds` (type: `array`):

Market-map ids or Dealroom list URLs, for example landscape-53885 or https://app.dealroom.co/lists/53885.

## `companyNames` (type: `array`):

Company names to resolve in Dealroom public indexes.

## `includeNews` (type: `boolean`):

Add the news\_available signal to each saved record. When on, the detail-enrichment fee applies per saved record; turn it off to drop the field and the fee.

## `includeSentiment` (type: `boolean`):

Add the sentiment\_available signal to each saved record. When on, the detail-enrichment fee applies per saved record; turn it off to drop the field and the fee.

## `sortBy` (type: `string`):

Sort saved rows after collection.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum rows to save. Set 0 for unlimited; the selected public source may return fewer rows than requested.

## `limit` (type: `integer`):

Compatibility alias for competitor inputs. Max items takes precedence when both are set.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

No page limit by default. Leave empty or set 0 for unlimited; the run stops at Max items.

## `pageSize` (type: `integer`):

Page size for market-map search and signal modes.

## `mcpConnectors` (type: `array`):

Optionally send a concise copy of each record into apps via MCP connectors. The full JSON stays in the dataset. Supported: Notion, Linear, Airtable, Apify.

## `notionParentPageUrl` (type: `string`):

URL or id of the Notion page under which records should be created. Required only for Notion connector export.

## `maxNotifyListings` (type: `integer`):

Cap on records written to each connector. Does not affect the dataset.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify datacenter proxy or direct routes are usually sufficient for Dealroom feeds. Residential may be useful if your run environment is rate-limited, but it can raise cost.
