💼 OpenVC Investors Scraper

Build startup investor lists from OpenVC, the open directory of more than 16,000 VC firms, angel investors, angel networks, corporate VCs, accelerators, family offices, private equity funds and startup studios. Every investor comes with its check size (as text and as numbers), funding stages, the countries it invests in, full investment thesis, value add, typical terms, whether it leads rounds, and how it takes pitches. Turn on full profiles to add the team with their LinkedIn, portfolio companies, headquarters with map coordinates, every office, themes and FAQs. No login, no account.

Made for founders raising a round, fundraising advisors, and anyone who sells to investors.

🎯 Who uses it?

🚀 Founders raising a round

Get every investor that writes your check size, at your stage, in your country, and that actually leads rounds, with how each one wants to be pitched.

🧭 Fundraising advisors and accelerators

Build targeted investor lists for each startup you support, with the thesis and value add to personalise every intro.

📇 Sales teams selling to VCs

Reach funds by type, size and region, with the partners' names and LinkedIn from the team section.

📊 Market researchers

Map who funds a sector, where they invest, and how big their checks are, across the whole directory.

✨ What it does

• Investor lists: any of the 400+ curated lists on OpenVC (by industry, stage, check size, investor type, region, US state or city) or any of the 190+ country pages, several at once, each investor returned once.
• Specific investors: look up funds and angels you already know, by name or by profile link. A misspelled name comes back with "did you mean" suggestions.
• Every investor: the whole directory, combined with your filters, to build a list no curated page offers.
• Filters: investor type, funding stage, countries or whole regions, your ticket size, leads rounds, how you can reach them, deck open rate, verified profiles, and words in the thesis.
• Full profiles (optional): who they are, headquarters with coordinates, every office, team members with role, LinkedIn and personal thesis, portfolio companies with website, investment themes, FAQs, similar investors, the lists they appear in, the company LinkedIn and their application form link.
• Fast: about 1,000 investors in 20 seconds as a list, or about 100 per minute with full profiles.

Why this scraper

• Real numbers for check size: $150k to $620k becomes a minimum, a maximum and a currency, so you can sort and filter by amount.
• Filters built for a raise: enter your ticket size and get only the investors whose check range covers it. The others match on free text.
• Pick from lists, not guess: every list on the site is in a searchable dropdown, and regions such as Europe, LATAM or Southeast Asia expand to all their countries.
• Full names, always: long investor names are returned complete, never cut short.
• Full profiles with team, portfolio, offices and coordinates, which list scrapers do not reach.
• Look up by name with suggestions for close misses.

❓ FAQ

How fast is it? As a list, about 1,000 investors in 20 seconds. With full profiles, about 100 investors per minute, so 1,000 take around five minutes.

How is the check size turned into numbers? $150k to $620k becomes checkSizeMin 150000, checkSizeMax 620000 and checkSizeCurrency USD. Euro and pound amounts keep their own currency. An investor that publishes no check size has these fields empty.

How does the ticket size filter work? Pick the amount you want from one investor. You get the investors whose first check range includes it: an investor writing $100k to $1M matches a $250k ticket, one writing $1M to $5M does not.

What does "leads rounds" mean? Each investor says whether it leads rounds always, sometimes or never. "Always or sometimes leads" keeps both, "Always leads" keeps only always.

Why do only a few investors have a deck open rate? Only some investors publish it, so the filter keeps a small share of any list.

What happens with a name that is not found? It gets its own row with the error field and up to three close matches in suggestions, and it is not charged. The error field only exists on rows like this one.

What are themes? The investment areas an investor lists, grouped into clean categories, so b to b, business to business and B2B come back once as B2B.

Why are some columns only there sometimes? Full profile columns (team, portfolio, offices, coordinates, themes and more) appear only when Full profile is on, so a fast list has no empty columns.

🛡️ Limits & responsible use

This Actor reads only public OpenVC pages. It never signs in and never contacts investors. Contact details that OpenVC shows only to signed in members (personal emails, social profiles of the fund) are not included.

Team members are published by the investors themselves on their public profile. Use the data for relevant fundraising and business purposes, and respect applicable privacy and anti-spam rules when you reach out.
