About

What FundingWatcher does

Investor counts

Counts of investors by type, stage and location at /investors/, each with the date the file was exported.

Startups and rounds

Startup lists by sector, stage, city and accelerator at /startups/, and funding rounds at /rounds/.

Research

Numbered reports and statistics roundups at /research/.

What makes FundingWatcher different

Counts are free to read and cite

No login is needed. PitchBook routes to a demo request and publishes no price.

Every count carries its date

Each page states the count and the date the file was exported. CB Insights' open lists are editorial picks and are not versioned by data date.
