Use Cases

• Market research — track which campaigns are gaining traction, compare backer counts and funding velocity across the tabletop space
• Publisher intelligence — monitor which studios are launching, how their campaigns perform, and what pledge structures they use
• Stretch goal analysis — understand how campaigns sequence and communicate stretch goals
• Pricing benchmarks — compare pledge tier structures and price points across categories
• Portfolio monitoring — watch campaigns for games you backed or want to track

How It Works

The scraper walks Gamefound's campaign listings, then reads live funding statistics from each project page — so backer count, amount raised and currency reflect the campaign right now, not a stale listing.

Pledge tiers are fetched from Gamefound's rewards API and normalized into a structured JSON array.

No login or API key is required.

Notes

• Gamefound hosts campaigns in multiple currencies depending on the creator's location. The currency field carries the symbol; funding_goal and amount_raised are in that same currency.
• Campaigns with status: Ended or status: Archived are still accessible via Gamefound's search and are included when projectPhase: All is selected.
• pledge_tiers and stretch_goals are JSON-encoded arrays stored as strings, suitable for downstream parsing or direct use in JSON-aware tools.
