If you're working on a project that requires data about various companies and you know Python, you're in the right place to learn how to effectively scrape [Crunchbase](https://www.crunchbase.com/). It's hard to imagine a better source for gathering essential company data such as location, main business areas, founders, investment round participation, and much more. However, like any site dealing with massive amounts of information, we need an effective tool to automate data extraction and transform it into a format suitable for further analysis.

one link enough

Comment on lines 482 to 486
Each method has its advantages, but for most projects, I recommend using the official API despite its limitations in the free version.

The complete source code for all described solutions is available in my [repository](https://github.com/Mantisus/crunchbase-crawlee).

I'd be happy to discuss in the comments which approach seems optimal for your needs and why.

i loved this blog, i just think it is kind of missing initially what should user expect, as it was not mentioned enough we are going to explore all three ways, and also whats exactly are we doing.

Also if we can breakdown the steps initially it will make the blog more guided.

good work
