Use Crunchbase in your AI tools with MCP

Connect your AI assistant to Crunchbase to research companies, explore funding activity, and build lists through natural-language requests.

Start here: Getting Started with MCP.
Choose your client: Connecting AI Tools.
Access: Sign in with your Crunchbase account. Individual access requires an MCP seat assigned by your workspace admin. See Managing MCP Access, or contact your account team if your workspace does not have MCP.

Build applications and data pipelines with the REST API

Make HTTP requests to search collections, look up entities and relationships, and retrieve data for enrichment, analysis, and your own integrations.

Start here: Make your first API request using your existing key in the interactive reference. See Using the API for authentication, rate limits, and retries.
Find an endpoint: API Reference.
Follow a workflow: API Starter Playbooks.
Access: You need a provisioned REST API key. See API access and key retrieval.

MCP seat access and REST API access are different access arrangements. An MCP seat does not replace the API key required for REST requests, and a REST API key is not the sign-in method for an individual MCP connection.
