Find venture fundedstartups for your businessbusinessfund

VCbacked is a startup database that tracks over 20,000 venture-backed companies with 19 verified datapoints per lead—including founder contact details, funding history, and company metrics. It is designed for sales teams, recruiters, and service providers who need direct access to funded startup founders.

VCbacked covers funded startups across North America, Europe, and select Asia-Pacific markets. The primary focus is the US, Canada, and European markets, which account for over 80% of global venture funding activity. Coverage also includes South America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Singapore, with active expansion underway.

Every lead is manually collected, cross-checked, and verified. Our team spends hundreds of hours each month curating data from dozens of sources including news outlets, venture-focused blogs, social media, industry events, and reputable databases. Each entry includes 19 datapoints that are verified before being added.

VCbacked starts at $79/month with verified founder contacts and unlimited exports. Crunchbase Pro costs $49/month but lacks direct contact info. CB Insights and PitchBook typically charge $5,000–$25,000 per year with long-term contracts. VCbacked is the only platform that combines curated startup funding data with verified decision-maker contact details at this price point.

Apollo and ZoomInfo provide general contact databases but are not curated for venture-funded startups specifically. VCbacked targets founders and decision-makers at VC-backed companies exclusively, with each contact manually verified. There are no credit limits or export caps—unlike Apollo's 900 credit/month free tier or ZoomInfo's usage-based pricing.
