Funding
Detect a company's most recent funding round and public/IPO status from just a domain, with investors and cited source URLs.
What it answers
The Funding signal summarises a company's most recent funding and its public status. It reports the latest primary equity round — never a secondary sale, tender offer, or debt event — and flags whether the company has gone public. A completed IPO, direct listing, or SPAC merger sets isPublic to true and latestRound to IPO, overriding earlier private rounds.
Answers favour reliability over completeness: the AI confirms that sources belong to the company at the domain you passed (not a similarly-named company) and returns the one to three most recent events rather than a full history.
Key: funding · Scope: company · Cost: 0.3 credits per fresh result (cache serves and failures are free)
The legacy routes (POST /v1/signals/funding and POST /v1/signals/sync/funding) keep working at their old 2-credit price until their announced sunset — responses carry Deprecation and successor Link headers. New integrations should use the endpoint above.
Request
Provide only a domain.

}'For webhook delivery, call the same endpoint with a webhookUrl to have the completed result delivered.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
domain | string | yes | Company domain to research. |
webhookUrl | string | no | Where to deliver the completed result when the run finishes (202 path). On a 200 cache serve the answer is already in the response. |
forceRefresh | boolean | no | Bypass the cache and force a fresh run. |
Response
A completed run's result conforms to the funding answer schema:
(The legacy /v1/signals routes return the same payload under answer.jsonSchema.)

isPublic | boolean | True if the company has gone public (IPO / direct listing / SPAC). |
latestRound | string | Most recent primary equity round or stage (e.g. Series B, IPO, Unknown). Never a secondary, tender, or debt event. |

Evidence
Every reported event is corroborated against public sources (company newsroom or IR pages, regulatory filings, major business press), and the URLs are returned in sourceUrls and in the signal's top-level sources. The signal does not fetch paywalled database pages, and an amount is omitted rather than guessed when it isn't disclosed.
