# Crunchbase API

> Crunchbase API: one public organization or person profile per request. Logged-out page fields only.

Two endpoints, one subscription. Organization reads `/organization/{permalink}`.
Person reads `/person/{permalink}`. Fields Crunchbase hides on the logged-out
page stay off the payload and are listed in `locked_fields`.

See the [product page](https://clair.im/apis/crunchbase).

## Organization

`GET /v1/organization?engine=crunchbase` · **1 request**

```sh theme={null}
curl -G https://api.clair.im/v1/organization \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "engine=crunchbase" \
  --data-urlencode "permalink=stripe"
```

| Parameter | Required | Contract |
| - | - | - |
| `engine` | yes | Must be `crunchbase`. |
| `permalink` | yes | Lowercase organization slug, such as `stripe`. |

The body is `organization`: `name`, `permalink`, `url`, `legal_name`,
`website`, `description`, `logo`, `operating_status`, `company_type`,
`ipo_status`, `employee_range`, `headquarters` (`city`, `region`, `country`,
`continent`), `rank`, `categories`, `social`, `contact`, `founders[]`,
`key_people[]`, `board_members[]`, `funding` (`num_rounds`,
`last_funding_type`, `num_investors`, `rounds[]`, `investors[]`),
`investments`, `exits`, `acquisitions`, `acquired_by`, `ipo`,
`similar_companies[]`, `products[]`, `predictions`, `technology`, `events`,
`news`, and `locked_fields[]`.

Card lists are Crunchbase's first page (\~10). There is no search or
autocomplete.

## Person

`GET /v1/person?engine=crunchbase` · **1 request**

```sh theme={null}
curl -G https://api.clair.im/v1/person \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "engine=crunchbase" \
  --data-urlencode "permalink=patrick-collison"
```

| Parameter | Required | Contract |
| - | - | - |
| `engine` | yes | Must be `crunchbase`. |
| `permalink` | yes | Lowercase person slug, such as `patrick-collison`. |

The body is `person`: `name`, `permalink`, `headline`, `primary_job_title`,
`primary_organization`, `location`, `social`, `jobs`, `board_roles`,
`education[]`, `investments`, `partner_investments`, `exits[]`,
`event_appearances`, `hubs`, `news`, and `locked_fields[]`.

## Errors

A missing permalink returns `404` `not_found`. Sending `limit` or `cursor` is
`400`. Typical locked fields on organizations: `funding_total`, `founded_on`,
`last_funding_at`, IPO amounts. Typical locked fields on people:
`investor_type`, `num_exits`.
