Familiarize yourself with the world of startups from the inside out. Here are 8 recommended startup databases:
- CB Insights – This is a market analysis platform. It provides industry reports and a range of investment research tools. How can CB Insight be of help? In finding startup investments, tracking trends, market research.
- PitchBook – This is another market analysis platform. It is perfect for investors, fund managers, and founders. Here, investors will find information on companies and their previous transactions.
- Crunchbase – One of the most popular platforms with data on public and private companies. Here, you’ll find detailed startup profiles with information about the company’s funding rounds, estimated revenue ranges, and the latest company news. The platform also allows you to integrate the contacts you find with your CRM.
- Tracxn – This is a private startup database. It has a built-in market analysis tool that is used to track startups and private companies in tech sectors. It can be used to create finance analyses and identify new sectors for potential investments.
- Growjo – The only completely free startup database on this list. The platform ranks and tracks the fastest-growing companies around the world based on revenue, employee growth, and recent funding. All new users can access all features and export up to 1,000 companies per month.
- Exploding Topics – This is a tool for spotting trends. The platform allows you to follow startups based on search volume to help users find companies that may be ready to invest.
- VentureRadar – A database of over 280,000 companies. In addition to finding new startups and ranking them, the platform keeps track of recent venture funding rounds and industry news. a good tool to start with, but it lacks more advanced features (such as CRM integration).
- GrowthList – A database of startups that have recently received funding. You receive the information by email in the form of a spreadsheet. You get insight into the amount of funding, who the founder is, verified contact, and social media links. If you want to provide services to startups, it’s a good place to look for leads.
