Web3 companies are badly covered by traditional business databases: funding is announced on X, teams are pseudonymous, and a “company” may be a token contract. RootData tracks that world — projects, VCs, people and their fundraising — and through AgentKey your agent reads it the same way it reads everything else — find_tools, describe_tool, execute_tool — resolving a name, ticker or X handle to a RootData id and then pulling the full record.

​
What you can ask

  • “Who invested in this project, and how much has it raised in total?”
  • “List every crypto funding round over $50M announced this month.”
  • “Which projects are trending on X this week?”
  • “Show me Paradigm’s portfolio and typical cheque size.”
  • “What is on the crypto calendar next week — unlocks, mainnet launches, conferences?”
  • “Which DePIN projects on Solana have raised money?”
  • “Who recently joined or left major crypto companies?”
  • “这个代币合约对应的项目是谁投的？“

How to use it

Pass the request in plain language and let the router pick the tool:
Both English and Chinese phrasing work. Always describe_tool before executing — detail lookups take RootData ids that the search tool returns, some batch exports are billed per record, and the per-call cost is shown there.
Building with code? The same capability is available as fixed-contract Scenario Methods with automatic provider failover — backed by both Crunchbase and RootData: business.company.search, business.company.get.

FAQ

Rounds announced from 2018 onward are available, filterable by date window and size. Profiles, indices and leaderboards are fetched at request time.
That page is protocol-centric — TVL, fees, tokenomics and fund portfolios from Surf and CoinMarketCap. RootData is the business record: fundraising rounds with valuations, investor and people profiles, ecosystem and tag dictionaries, hiring moves and a crypto calendar.
Yes. The updated-entities tool returns every project, VC, person and financing record that changed in a time window, so a mirror can refresh incrementally instead of re-reading everything.
