FUNDZ API — EVALUATE WITH NO KEY

Seven endpoints. No key, no signup, no account.

You do not need to talk to us, or to register, to see whether this data is any good. Seven Fundz endpoints answer live against production data right now — funding rounds cross-referenced with hiring, UCC refinancing windows, Form 5500 benefit plans, and the lender and broker directories. Anonymous callers get the top 5 of each scored cohort plus the true cohort size, and every row carries the Fundz page behind it.

Try it right now — nothing to sign
curl "https://api.fundz.net/v1/funded_hiring"

Swap funded_hiring for renewal_radar, stacked_borrowers, benefit_plans, money_in_motion, lenders or brokers. Filter any of them with ?state=TX or ?q=acme. Every response carries a meta.attribution object; attribution is required for free-tier use, and commercial redistribution or display needs a licence.

If the thing that wants this data is an AI agent

Point it at our MCP server and there is no client library to write. Works in Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf and Cline. Requires Node 18+ — Node 16 fails with a bare "fetch is not defined".

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fundz": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@fundzwatch/mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Note there is no env block. Seven of the fourteen tools work exactly like that. The other seven — AI-scored leads, watchlists and the full event feeds — read your FUNDZWATCH_API_KEY and require a paid seat.

When you want the keyed half

API and MCP keys are issued with an active Fundz Pro or Strategic seat — there is no separate free API tier. See plans → Building a product on the feed instead? Data licensing is published pricing, no quote: $249/mo for internal use, $999/mo to display it to your own customers, and $1,499/mo for redistribution and white-label. Billed annually, priced on use rights rather than call volume. See the ladder →
