VCPeer review
A budget-conscious investor database with search, source-backed research, exports, and API access.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
VCPeer is a web-based investor research platform for startup founders, investors, accelerators, and operators. It combines searchable investor profiles with filters for stage, sector, type, and location, investor comparison, saved searches, watchlists, founder reviews, funding-round data, exit data, market-pulse feeds, and source-backed Ask research. Its web and API access make it suitable for individual research as well as programmatic private-market workflows.
The Free plan provides public search, 30 signed-in Ask answers per day, advanced filters and comparison, one watchlist, and three saved searches, but no exports. Pro costs $299 per year and adds unlimited Ask research, 10 watchlists, 25 saved searches and alerts, CSV exports up to 1,000 rows, plus PDF and Markdown exports. Team costs $999 per year and adds a shared workspace, larger exports, team notes, priority data requests, and support onboarding. A Research Report costs $99 one time and includes an investor shortlist, market map, recent funding rounds, similar companies, risks, and next steps.
VCPeer stands out for combining directory search with multiple research and delivery formats. Buyers can use investor comparisons and watchlists for recurring work, then use CSV, PDF, Markdown, JSON API, or RSS delivery according to their workflow. The product is a strong fit for budget-conscious founders and operators who need structured investor research without starting with an annual subscription. Pro or Team is more appropriate for heavier research, exports, alerts, or collaboration. Buyers who require verified contact details or a stated freshness cadence should consider an alternative database.

- JSON API, CSV, and RSS delivery support programmatic workflows
- Where it doesn't
- The Free plan includes no exports
- Pro limits CSV exports to 1,000 rows
- Contact-detail verification and a stated freshness cadence are not part of its positioning
