Maddyness French Startup fundraising database

Maddyness French Startup fundraising database return a list of French startups who recently raised funds. Data are based on weekly fundraising reports from Maddyness. You can easily filter your search by:

• sector
• announcement date range
• amount raised range.

This Actor offers 2 run modes:

• Standard run : a one-shot search from the Actor input. Matches are pushed to the run's default dataset. This run mode gives you access to all Apify native integrations.
• Standby : Simple HTTP API call. Ideal when integrating from another service or spreadsheet in near real time.

Every returned startup is billed as one pay-per-event charge: you pay for exactly what you consume, nothing else.

Why use Maddyness fundraising data?

• Use funding signal for cold outreach: Companies raising funds have more purchasing power and are therefore good targets for lead generation.
• Market research: Monitor trending startups and sectors.

Filters

All filters below apply to both modes — as input fields in standard mode, as query parameters in Standby mode.

Filter	Type	Description
sector	string	Case-insensitive substring match on the startup's sector tag ("biotech", "greentech", "transport / logistique", ...). Leave empty for any.
announcedAtMin	YYYY-MM-DD	Earliest fundraising announcement date (inclusive).
announcedAtMax	YYYY-MM-DD	Latest fundraising announcement date (inclusive).
amountEurMin	integer (EUR)	Minimum amount raised (inclusive).
amountEurMax	integer (EUR)	Maximum amount raised (inclusive).
defaultMaxResults (input only)	integer, 1–1000	Default result cap. In Standby mode this is used when the caller does not pass maxResults on the query string.
maxResults (Standby query string only)	integer, 1–1000	Per-request cap. Charged per returned result.

Output

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel.

Pricing : pay per result

This Actor uses the pay-per-event pricing model. Every returned startup counts as one result event, in both standard and standby modes.

Event	Description	Suggested price
result	One matching startup returned	USD 0.0001

Tips

• Narrow filters cost less: a tight amountEurMin/amountEurMax range returns fewer results, so you're billed less.
• maxResults is a hard cap: set it to what you actually need, since each result is billed.
• Sector is a substring: sector=tech matches deeptech, greentech, biotech. Use the full tag for exact intent.
