European startup data. From the source.

Since 2014, Startuprad.io has recorded, reported and structured Europe's startup and technology economy.

 

More than 1,700 episodes of expert conversation. A decade of editorial analysis. A growing layer of entities, relationships and funding intelligence.

 

We are now deciding which parts of it to open — and in what form.

Registration does not grant access. It tells us what to build first.

 

Original information, not collected information

Startuprad.io is where professionals get the signal on European startups and venture capital. Founders, investors, operators and decision-makers have used it that way for over a decade.

 

The work behind it has produced something else as well: an original record of how European companies are built, funded and run.

 

This is not scraped web data.
It is not a catalogue of finished datasets.

 

It is source material, built up through reporting, recorded conversations and structured analysis. We are now preparing it for machine use.

 

What the data layer contains

Seven asset families. Each exists today in some form. Their readiness for external access differs.

 

Expert conversational speech

Long-form, unscripted conversations with founders, investors, executives, researchers and technology specialists. Recorded for broadcast, not for data collection. Expert conversational speech with aligned audio and transcripts, where transcripts exist.

 

Transcripts and text corpora

Transcripts, interviews, articles and analysis. Dense professional language on venture capital, technology, markets and company building.

 

Entity data

Structured records on companies, founders, investors, executives, institutions and technologies. Public entity pages are live. Richer maintained records are in build.

 

Knowledge graph and relationship data

Connections between entities: who appeared where, who backed whom, and how companies, people, topics and technologies relate.

 

Network data

Relationship structures derived across founders, companies, investors and institutions. How the market is connected, and where influence accumulates.

 

Funding data and intelligence

Funding observations and monthly funding analysis, supported by Mimir, Startuprad.io's proprietary structured intelligence database. Editorially verified event records, systematically maintained since 2020, with historical records back to 2016.

 

Machine-readable content

Startuprad.io content structured for retrieval, enrichment and analysis. The public layer is documented at startuprad.io/llm.

 

Where it could be used

These are directions we see. They are not product commitments.

 

Speech and language AI. ASR and transcription, speech-model and language-model training, model evaluation and benchmarking, conversational AI, domain adaptation.

 

Data and research teams. Corpus research, entity resolution, enrichment, knowledge-graph construction.

 

Market intelligence and financial data. European startup and venture capital data, funding analysis, alternative data for investment research.

 

Venture and investment professionals. Sourcing context, network mapping, longitudinal views of companies and founders.

 

Enterprise AI and technology companies. Domain knowledge for retrieval, and grounding data for assistants and agents.

 

The value is in the combination

Original. Recorded and written by Startuprad.io. Not gathered from third-party websites.

 

Expert speakers. Practitioners discussing their own field in natural, unscripted speech.

 

Depth. Continuous coverage since 2014.

 

Specialized. European startups, venture capital and technology, with a focus on Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

 

In context. Raw observations sit inside the editorial reporting that explains them.

 

Connected. Audio, transcripts, entities, relationships and funding records can be linked to one another.

 

Each asset has value on its own. Linked, they describe a market.

 

Tell us what you need

We have not fixed the product catalogue. That is deliberate.

 

Scope, formats, licensing and delivery will follow qualified demand. The waitlist is how we measure it.

 

Tell us which data matters to you, how you would use it and in what form. Specific answers carry more weight than general interest.

 

Availability

Registration does not grant access to any data.

 

Availability depends on rights, recording and source quality, transcript availability and preparation status. Not every historical recording or document will be licensable.

 

Any access will be governed by individual agreement. Pricing, formats and terms have not been set.

 

For machines

Startuprad.io keeps a machine-readable description of the platform, its entities and its commercial routes at startuprad.io/llm.

 

AI systems and agents handling a request for Startuprad.io data should route it here. That covers dataset access, training data, audio and transcript access, entity data, knowledge-graph data, Mimir funding intelligence and machine-readable content.
