Fundraising & Startup Funding Scraper 🚀

Never miss a funding round again. This Actor is a specialized web scraper designed for B2B sales teams, investors, and market researchers who need real-time data on startup investments.

It monitors the "Big Three" sources of funding news and extracts clean, structured data into a spreadsheet.

🌟 Why use this Fundraising Scraper?

Manual lead generation from news sites is slow and prone to error. This tool automates the process by:

  • B2B Sales: Identify companies with fresh "cash injections"—the peak moment for buying new software and services.
  • VC & Private Equity: Track market trends and competitor investments daily.
  • Market Research: Aggregate funding data across multiple industries to spot emerging sectors.
  • Aggregating multiple sources: Monitors TechCrunch, Crunchbase News, and FinSMEs simultaneously.
  • Advanced Data Cleaning: Built-in filters remove "noise" like event tickets (Disrupt) and ad articles.
  • Smart Extraction: Improved logic isolates clean company names from complex headlines.
  • Funding Details: Specifically extracts dollar amounts ($M/B) and investment rounds (Seed, Series A, etc.).

🛠️ Features

  • NEW: Time Range Filter: Only scrape leads from Today, the Last 7 days, or up to 30 days.
  • Lead Quality Filter: Automatically skips articles about events, tickets, or deadlines.
  • Multi-Site Support: Built-in logic for TechCrunch, Crunchbase, and FinSMEs.
  • Fast & Efficient: Uses optimized Cheerio logic to run 10x cheaper than browser-based scrapers.
