Drop FundedAPI into a Clay HTTP column. Every row in your table gets the latest round, hiring signal, and founder LinkedIn URLs — no scraping, no ZoomInfo invoice.
Add a Clay column: URL = `https://fundedapi.com/v1/startups?investor={{company}}`, Auth = Bearer. Typed JSON comes back — Clay parses fields automatically.
We scrape daily and fan out webhooks within minutes of new rows. Your Clay table reflects the latest round before Crunchbase updates its cache.
Every row carries `contacts[]` with name, title, email (when public), and LinkedIn URL. Map directly into Clay's person fields.
100 calls/day is enough for a personal prospect list. Upgrade to Pro ($49/mo) for team-size Clay tables — still 1/10th the cost of waterfall credits.
Building a list of 'every startup backed by a16z that just raised Seed'? One `?investor=Andreessen%20Horowitz` param — exact match, zero false positives.
Receive new funded startups as they hit our dataset — push into Clay via its Webhook source. Real-time table updates, no polling.
POST /v1/search/ai
{ "query": "Clay table of Seed-stage AI startups hiring, enriched with founder LinkedIn URLs" }# Clay "HTTP API" column config:
# URL: https://fundedapi.com/v1/startups?niche=AI&hiring=true&limit=1
# (for per-row enrichment, template the domain: &website={{Domain}})
# Method: GET
# Headers: Authorization = Bearer {{FUNDED_API_KEY}}
# Response shape — Clay will auto-expand each field into a column:
{
"startups": [{
"name": "NovaLabs",
"fundingRound": "Seed",
"fundingAmount": 5000000,
"hiringSignal": true,
"contacts": [
{ "name": "Jane Doe", "role": "ceo",
"linkedinUrl": "https://linkedin.com/in/janedoe" }
]
}]
}Create the column → choose 'HTTP API' → URL `https://fundedapi.com/v1/startups?{{filters}}` → method GET → Header `Authorization: Bearer {{your key}}`. Clay auto-parses JSON and lets you expand any nested field into its own column.
Yes — pass `?website=acme.io` or `?name=Acme+Labs`. For bulk enrichment it's faster to grab a daily export with `/v1/startups/export` and JOIN it against your Clay table locally.
For static enrichment inside Clay, polling via HTTP column is simplest. For real-time alerts (new round → Clay notification), use our webhooks into Clay's Webhook source block.
For fresh funding + hiring signals + founder contacts at the moment of announcement: yes. For enriched B2B firmographics (revenue, employee count over time), Apollo/ZoomInfo still win. Most teams use us alongside them.
Yes. Our JSON responses are agent-friendly — Clay's AI columns can reason about our fields directly. For natural-language enrichment, point an AI column at our `/v1/search/ai` endpoint.
Free 100/day is enough for ~1 enrichment run over a 50-row table. Pro 10K/day covers daily enrichment of ~5000-row tables. Scale 100K/day for enterprise Clay workspaces.
That's the best use case. Filter for `hiring=true` + `fundingRound=Seed` + `since=yesterday`, drop into Clay, enrich with ZoomInfo/Apollo, compose outbound with Clay's AI, send via Heyreach/Instantly. End-to-end fresh-money pipeline.
Fresh funding rounds + key hiring signals in your inbox every Monday.
Free forever. No card. No tricks.
