Crunchbase is a company intelligence platform that gives you data on private and public businesses — funding rounds, key people, acquisitions, and growth signals.
Crunchbase is the go-to for B2B sales teams prospecting into tech and funded companies. The funding and growth data is unmatched. But if your customers are local service businesses or consumers, the $29-$49/month plans won't deliver enough value.
Search 100M+ company profiles with filters for funding, industry, location, employee count
Track funding rounds, acquisitions, and leadership changes to spot sales opportunities
Export leads and sync contacts to Salesforce and HubSpot
Set up alerts when target companies raise money or hit milestones
Access intent data showing which companies are actively researching your solutions

Airtable and Crunchbase connect through Zapier — there is no native direct integration. You build a Zap where Crunchbase is the trigger (a company added to a List, or a new Saved Search result) and Airtable is the action (create or update a record). When a prospect lands in your Crunchbase list, Zapier automatically writes a new row into your Airtable base with that company's data — name, funding stage, industry, and any other fields Crunchbase exposes. This keeps your prospecting or deal-tracking table current without manual CSV exports. Sync timing follows Zapier's polling interval, which ranges from every 1 minute (on premium plans) to every 15 minutes on free plans. The reverse direction — Airtable triggering Crunchbase actions — is not supported, so data flows one way: Crunchbase → Airtable. Data flows: Crunchbase company data (name, funding info, industry, saved search metadata) flows into Airtable as new or updated records. Direction is one-way: Crunchbase → Airtable. Pain points: Zapier's free tier polls every 15 minutes, so leads don't appear instantly. Crunchbase's Zapier triggers only surface List additions and Saved Searches — you can't trigger on arbitrary company field changes. Crunchbase requires a paid Pro or Enterprise account to unlock Zapier access.
