Thanks for this overview!!!

SEC filings + crowd sourcing content seems the way to go. Plus, who wouldn't want to celebrate their latest funding round :)

Curious, how much would you pay for a service where you get the same data as crunchbase, but with a delightful UI, focused on Pre Seed to A, in a vertical like "Dev Tools"?

I think there is a subset of VCs that would pay for this.. unfortunately, that very particular subset of VCs has the smallest budget to pay for things based on their fixed fees/fund sizes.

Firms like CapitalIQ or Pitchbook have their largest contract with giant asset managers for whom a 6- or 7-figure deal would be a very small percentage of AUM (and thereby small percentage of management fees).

For angels/seed stage VCs, you are likely looking at "pro-sumer" like prices. So, something like 100-1000/month at most.
