Pipe newly-funded founders straight into your Instantly campaigns. One CSV export or webhook → their inbox, in your voice, before 40 other SDRs get there.
Our `/v1/startups/export` endpoint returns a CSV Instantly ingests natively. Map `contacts[0].email` → email, `name` → company, done.
Subscribe with `hiring=true` + `niche=AI` → receive HMAC-signed events → forward to Instantly's API for instant campaign enrollment.
`?since=YYYY-MM-DD` returns only rounds scraped since that date. Run Instantly campaigns on leads younger than 72 hours — conversion multiplier.
`hiringSignal: true` means they're deploying the money they just raised. Perfect correlation with 'will take a 15-min call about your vendor'.
100 API calls/day is 1 CSV export of up to 5000 founders. Enough for a one-person SDR running daily Instantly campaigns. Zero overage charges.
We supply the lead + context. You keep your Instantly AI prompt + sequencer. Pair with `/recipes/node` to auto-enroll via Instantly's API in real time.

-d @<(jq -Rs '{campaign_id: "seed-saas", leads: [.]}' fresh-leads.csv)For founders whose contact info is published publicly (team page, press release, SEC filing) — yes. We don't pattern-match emails. If `contact.email` is null, it wasn't publicly listed. You can still reach them via LinkedIn URL.
Use `?since=yesterday` so you're only pulling leads that hit the dataset in the last 24 hours. Combine with niche/round filters narrow enough that your competitors aren't blasting the same slice.
Yes. Use our webhook → serverless function → Instantly API pattern (full example in /recipes/node). Or simplest: daily CSV export → Instantly bulk upload.
We handle data, not sending. Instantly manages your domain warmup + inbox rotation. Pair them: we give you who to email and when, Instantly gives you how.
Our dataset is public API — any customer can pull the same rounds. What's NOT shared: who you specifically enrolled into an Instantly sequence. Competitive edge = speed + angle, not data exclusivity.
Free: 100/day (one CSV export). Pro: 10K/day (hourly polls + per-lead enrichment). Scale: 100K/day (real-time webhook + API round-trip on every enrollment).
All contact data is sourced publicly. Individuals can opt out via hello@fundedapi.com — we delete within 7 days and stop returning that email in future responses. See /privacy.
Fresh funding rounds + key hiring signals in your inbox every Monday.
Free forever. No card. No tricks.
