Why is a lookup 10 points?

This record bundles funding, acquisitions, investments, competitors and news; the docs price it at a flat 10 points per successful run.

Are investors included?

Funding rounds have an investors list, which is empty for the rounds in the sample.

Do I pay for lookups that come back empty?

No. You are charged per result, so a request that finds nothing costs nothing. Testing this against a messy list is free to get wrong.

What does a request cost?

10 points per successful run, which is $10 per 1,000, and only runs that return data are charged. Points come out of your monthly plan allowance.

Startup & Funding Data

Owler Company API and MCP — profile, funding rounds, acquisitions and competitors

Send a company slug such as stripe, or its Owler link. You get one record: description, founding year, ownership, sectors and industries, headquarters, contact links, CEO and leadership, revenue and employee estimates, funding totals and rounds, acquisitions, investments, competitors and latest news.

Run it in the app Read the API docs

You send: a company slug or Owler URL
You get back: One Owler company: description, founded year, headquarters, CEO, revenue and employee estimates, funding rounds, acquisitions, investments, competitors and latest news.
Coverage: Owler records with a public page.
Price: 10 pts — $10 per 1,000; Charged only when the record resolves. A request that finds nothing is not billed.

Comparison

Ways to get this data

Three approaches teams use today, and where each one runs into trouble.

Approach	What it takes	Cost	Trade-off
Owler directly	Open the page on Owler and read it	Free, and slow	Fine for one record, useless across a list, and the layout differs on every platform
Building a scraper	Write it, host it, and repair it when Owler changes its pages	Engineering time	A maintenance commitment for something that isn't your product
NeuralVerge	One request, the same shape as every other source in the catalog	$10 per 1,000, misses not billed	Returns what Owler publishes at request time. Other platforms are separate sources with the same request format

Integration

How to run it

The same lookup works from the app, the API, or as a tool an agent can call mid-task.

One record per request. Results come back in the same envelope as every other source: a session id, a readable summary, the structured result and the points charged.

curl -X POST https://api.neuralverge.ai/functions/v1/run-owler-companies \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"company":"stripe"}'

Use cases

What teams use it for

Where this field shows up in an actual workflow.

Company due diligence

Read description, ownership, funding rounds and acquisitions in one record.

Sales and account research

Get headquarters, headcount estimate and leadership before outreach.

Investor and M&A screening

Review funding history and acquisitions by year.

CRM enrichment

Fill sector, revenue range and employee range from a company slug.

Coverage & limits

Coverage, freshness and limits

What this source covers, how fresh it is, and where it stops.

Coverage

Owler records with a public page.

Freshness

Read at request time, so the answer reflects the platform as it stands when you ask.

Handling

This source returns information Owler shows publicly. Every response carries the session id you can trace.

What it will not do

—Revenue, employee counts and funding totals are Owler's estimates, not filed accounts.
—Lists in the sample are shortened to a few entries; use Owler company competitors and Owler company news for fuller lists.
—Funding round investors can be empty, as in the sample, and the CEO and leadership blocks name individuals.
