CB Insights vs. Crunchbase

Why teams choose CB Insights over Crunchbase

Getting free company information and deal news pulled from old stories on the internet is fine, but it is what it is—and hardly enough to compete in today’s hyperactive, cutthroat tech markets.


You need trusted private and public company data and forward-looking emerging tech research by industry experts—and AI tools that can turn all that data into actionable insights in seconds. You deserve CB Insights.
