What investment and crowdfunding platforms use it for

Understand funding cycles

See how long companies in each sector typically go between rounds.

Know your market share

See which platforms and nominees appear on the most cap tables in each sector.

Track your alumni

Follow companies that raised through you as they raise again or exit.

Questions you can ask

Ask Pulse answers plain-English questions from Pulse’s own data, with links to the companies and investors behind each answer. For example:

  • Which consumer companies last raised 18 months ago?
  • Which platforms are most active in food and drink?
  • How many companies that crowdfunded have since raised a Series A?

Questions

Do you show crowd investors by name?

No. Platforms usually hold shares through a nominee, and angels aren't shown on the Company data plan.

Can we export lists?

Yes: companies, rounds and investment firms, for your own internal use. Angels aren't exported.

Where does the data come from?

From official UK company records, which Pulse cleans, matches, values and connects with its own intelligence engine. Amounts and valuations are Pulse estimates: a strong guide, not audited figures.
