Pricing comparison

Dealroom

Fundable

Where Dealroom wins

  • Government and institutional partnerships across 40+ countries unlock trade register records, policy metrics, and local startup activity that press monitoring alone can't surface.
  • Valuation multiples, cap table data, revenue estimates, ownership structures, and quarterly investment reports in one platform.
  • Dealroom powers branded startup databases for 100+ government agencies and EDOs across 40+ countries.

Where Fundable wins

  • Self-serve API available to every user from day one, where Dealroom's full API is locked behind an Enterprise license and a sales call. Native MCP is built in, not reserved for the top tier.
  • Real-time funding activity refreshed throughout the day, often surfacing rounds hours before broader database refresh cycles catch up.
  • Contact data, exports, and native CRM integrations (Slack, Teams, HubSpot, Salesforce) come standard, not gated behind add-on credits or higher tiers.
  • Natural language Deal Alerts with AI-extracted use-of-funds context, hiring intent, and expansion signals pulled directly from fundraising announcements.
  • Global by default, not Europe-first. New raises surface across every major market the moment they break, rather than on a delayed refresh cycle.

Teams that are choosing Dealroom

  • Government agencies and ministries using Dealroom's dedicated ecosystem product to measure, benchmark, and showcase their regional startup activity.
  • Economic development organizations and trade bodies attracting investment and building data-driven ecosystem programs.
  • VC and PE analysts doing deep sector research, ecosystem benchmarking, and portfolio monitoring across European and global markets.
