Daily CSV Export

πŸ“˜

Did you know? This is our new CSV export landing page!

We've updated our Bulk CSV Export as of July 2024 to have parity with our API offering. If you are looking for our Legacy CSV export page, please go here.


Crunchbase makes a CSV export available for developers seeking to access Crunchbase data without coding against the REST API, acting as a daily snapshot of each field in the Crunchbase API. The export is updated each morning and includes separate files for each endpoint collection in the API, including companies, people, funding rounds, acquisitions, and IPOs.

Your API package determines which CSV files you can download.

CSVs Format & Encoding

Our CSVs are encoded in UTF-8 and followed the standard CSV format of:

  • escape character is "" (double quotes)
  • field delimiter is ',' (comma)
  • record delimiter is '\n' (new line)

This is a standard CSV format that should behave appropriately if opened with tools or libraries that are configured to the default CSV format listed above.


Understanding the CSV Export's Contents

As a snapshot of the contents of our API, each CSV contains the exact fields for every entity that exists for a given collection. This means that the documentation for a given API endpoint collection's fields correspond directly to each column for the matching CSV.

We recommend using our Data Dictionary to give you a picture of what fields are available in our API and CSV offerings.

By clicking on the Fields (API/CSV) tab, you can see a description of the available fields across all collections available in the API and CSV offerings. You can filter by the 'Data Entity' column to see which fields are available for each collection.
