Fentner Business Spotlight

First and second place from our seven-source test of startup funding data, compared on the one thing an analyst gets asked in review: how was this counted?

  • Tracxn coverage — 7.7M companies, 723,000+ funded, figures stated without counting rules
  • FundingWatcher coverage — 79,515 investor entries, 167 countries
  • Counting rules — published by FundingWatcher on its method page; not found on Tracxn's open pages
  • Stated limits — FundingWatcher names missing websites, the five-investor cap and fields it lacks
  • Where Tracxn fits — breadth across millions of companies inside a paid account
