Crunchbase Scraper Pro

Overview

Crunchbase Scraper Pro extracts structured company intelligence from Crunchbase — no API key, no subscription, no manual copy-pasting. Drop in company names and get clean JSON with descriptions, contact info, founders, industry tags, and more. Built for teams that need Crunchbase data at scale without the enterprise price tag.

The Problem

Crunchbase is the richest company database on the web, but accessing that data is painful:

• Manual extraction is slow — copying data from each profile one by one
• Crunchbase API is expensive — enterprise pricing puts it out of reach for most teams
• Data is locked behind a wall — free accounts get limited views and no bulk export
• Existing scrapers break easily — unreliable results, missing fields, silent failures

---

The Solution

This actor solves all of that:

• Bulk extraction — process dozens of companies in a single run
• No API key required — works without any Crunchbase subscription
• Complete profiles — 11 fields per company including contact data and founders
• Reliable pipeline — failed companies are isolated, not silently dropped
