Startup funding rounds as they are announced, each with the company's website. Lempile reads startup news and US SEC Form D filings every hour, keeps one event per company and round, and confirms each round from the publisher's own article or the filing before it is served.

Early access, free. Ask for a key with the chat button or at support@lempile.com.

id is stable. When several articles report the same round, they become one event with every source and the earliest found_at.
found_at is when Lempile first saw the round; effective_date is the announcement or filing date.
financing_type is the round as announced; financing_type_normalized is one of pre_seed, seed, series_a to series_h, growth, debt, grant or other. SEC filings come in as "Form D" (other) until an article names the round.
amount and currency are as announced; amount_normalized is in US dollars at approximate rates, for filtering.
company_domain is the company's own website, checked by reading its homepage. It can arrive an hour or two after the event, so read with an overlapping window or use has_domain=true.
company.linkedin_url, industry and employee_count are empty for now.
