Search Crunchbase News by Keyword
View all Crunchbase Company & Investment Data endpoints →Find Crunchbase News articles using a keyword such as stripe. The query string is optional in the documented parameter contract, but the behavior when it is omitted or empty is not established; provide an explicit keyword for a reproducible search. The optional page parameter defaults to 1 and accepts integers from 1 to 100. No date-range, company-ID, author or category filter is documented for this operation, and advanced search syntax is not established. Keyword matches are publication search results, not verified company-specific events. The documented response example contains query, items, count, current_page, per_page, total_pages, next and previous. Each article includes a numeric id, title, link, excerpt, image, authors, categories, tags, published_at and modified_at. Authors, categories and tags are string arrays in the example, and the date fields are strings. The query field provides search context; next and previous are pagination-link fields in the example. No full-article body field is documented. No live probe was recorded for this operation: these fields describe an unverified documentation example, not observed runtime behavior. Result completeness, ranking rules and update latency are not confirmed.

Query Result
Use Cases
- Create a sector or investment-thesis reading list by querying a chosen startup theme within Crunchbase News instead of across the whole web.
- Compare an editor's selected funding keywords across retrieved result pages while preserving each original query and article source.
- Collect candidate articles that mention a startup name for manual account research, checking the source before treating a keyword match as a company-specific event.
- Maintain a research log of keyword, requested page and returned article IDs so collaborators can trace which publication search informed a coverage review.
Frequently asked questions
Is a keyword required for news search?
Query is optional in the documented parameter contract. However, no live probe or documentation example establishes what happens when it is omitted or empty, so supply an explicit keyword such as stripe for a meaningful, reproducible search.
Can I filter matches by company ID, date or author?
Only query and page are documented inputs here. There is no documented company-ID, date-range or author filter, and no confirmed Boolean or other advanced search syntax.
How do I review another page of keyword matches?
Retain your chosen query and request another integer page from 1 to 100; the default page is 1. The unverified example includes pagination metadata and next and previous link fields, but available page counts can differ by search.
Does a startup-name match prove a funding event for that company?
No. This endpoint searches publication articles by keyword. Review the returned title, excerpt and original article link to establish relevance and verify any event before attaching it to a company record.
Which search response fields have been verified live?
None were confirmed by a recorded live probe for this operation. The documentation example contains query, pagination metadata and article fields including id, title, excerpt, link, image, authors, categories, tags, published_at and modified_at. It does not document full article text or guarantee complete search coverage.
