Can I pass a link instead of a slug?

Yes. Send either the slug, such as revolut, or the link to the business page.

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?

5 points per successful run, which is $5 per 1,000, and only runs that return data are charged. Points come out of your monthly plan allowance.

Startup & Funding Data

Seedrs Business API and MCP — Secondary-Market Valuation, Sector, Eligibility

Send the slug of a business listed on the Seedrs / Republic Europe secondary market, or the link to its page, and get one record back as JSON: name, description, sector, customer type, incorporation date, available shares, indicative valuation and its change, and whether the business is currently eligible for trading.

Run it in the app Read the API docs

You send: a Seedrs (Republic Europe) business slug, or the link to its secondary-market page
You get back: description, sector, available shares, indicative valuation and its change, eligibility and incorporation date
Coverage: Seedrs records with a public page.
Price: 5 pts — $5 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
Seedrs directly	Open the page on Seedrs 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 Seedrs 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	$5 per 1,000, misses not billed	Returns what Seedrs 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-seedrs-businesses \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"business":"revolut"}'

Use cases

What teams use it for

Where this field shows up in an actual workflow.

Secondary-market screening

Pull sector, valuation and eligibility for businesses you are watching without opening each page.

Valuation tracking

Store the indicative valuation and its change on a schedule to see how a listed business moves.

Equity-crowdfunding research

Match a business slug to the later campaign record to see how its funding history lines up.

Company enrichment

Add incorporation date, sector and customer type to a company already in your CRM.

Coverage & limits

Coverage, freshness and limits

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

Coverage

Seedrs 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 Seedrs shows publicly. Every response carries the session id you can trace.

What it will not do

—The valuation is described as indicative on the platform; treat it as a listing figure, not an audited value.
—Only businesses with a secondary-market page can be looked up. A company that raised on the platform but has no such page needs the campaign lookup instead.
—Some fields can be null, such as cover_image and the ids inside sector and customer_type.

FAQ

Questions, answered

No. A business record comes from the secondary-market page and describes the listed company and its tradable shares. A campaign record describes a specific fundraising round, with amounts raised, investors and tax relief.
