FAQ, disclaimers, and support

Does it include founders?

Yes. Public founder details are included when include_founders and enrich_company_pages are enabled.

Does it extract emails?

It only charges and saves actual public email addresses found in fetched public pages. YC may show a founder has_email flag without exposing the email address; that is not charged as an email.
