Why

Why teams scrape Crunchbase

Crunchbase holds some of the most commercially useful public data on the web, and almost none of it is available through a stable official feed at the volume real products need. Rate limits, partner-only access and shifting page structures mean teams either give up on the source or maintain a fragile scraper that breaks every few weeks.

Funding events are the clearest buying signal in B2B, and licensed access is priced for enterprises rather than for teams that need a few thousand records a month.

Irmu removes the infrastructure question entirely. One authenticated request handles proxy selection, browser rendering, anti-bot challenges and retries, and AI Extract turns the resulting page into validated JSON against a schema you define. You get company, description, founded, headcount, total_funding, last_round, investors, industries without writing or maintaining a single selector, and the same endpoint, quota and observability model you already use for every other source.
