	Crustdata	Fundable
Pros	+ Extensive real-time B2B data — 250+ company firmographics and 90+ people datapoints with near-instant freshness updates + Watcher API enables event-driven agent workflows via webhooks for job switches, funding rounds, and other company/people changes + Simple REST API with token auth and JSON responses makes integration straightforward for LLM agents	+ First-class AI agent support — offers MCP server, natural language semantic search, and deal alerts that map well to agentic workflows + Rich structured data (50+ datapoints per startup, 400K people, 60K investors) returned as JSON — ideal for LLM function calling and downstream processing + Surfaces new VC deals before competitors and provides sourced datapoints, giving agents access to timely, verifiable funding intelligence
Cons	- No public OpenAPI spec — agents must rely on manually coded endpoint definitions - Credit-based pricing can be opaque; free tier is limited and paid plans require contacting sales for enterprise volumes	- Full API access requires Enterprise plan with custom pricing — Pro/Pro+ tiers are export-limited and may not cover programmatic agent usage at scale - No public OpenAPI spec, so agents cannot auto-discover endpoints or generate typed clients without manual setup
