Funding data
Search companies by funding
Funding is a first-class search dimension: round, amount raised, lead investor, and how recently they raised — answered with a verified shortlist instead of a keyword dump.
What it covers
Refreshed daily, and it reaches the long tail
Canonical treats funding as a first-class search dimension. Find companies by funding round, amount raised, lead investor, and how recently they raised, then get a verified shortlist rather than a keyword dump. Coverage is refreshed daily and reaches the long tail of smaller and less-covered raises that other databases miss.
Use it in the app, over the REST API and Python SDK, or connect ChatGPT, Claude, or any MCP-compatible assistant to the Canonical MCP server and have your assistant run funding searches for you, on a schedule.
