The Prompt
Task
Given a company name, pull their full investor list from Crunchbase, then research each investor on LinkedIn and Google to build a comprehensive investor map. This is useful for warm introductions, partnership development, and understanding who has influence over a target account.
Tools
- @Crunchbase/Get Organization — Pull the company's investor list, funding rounds, and total raised
- @LinkedIn/Get Profile With Posts — Research individual investor profiles for background and recent activity
- @LinkedIn/Get Company Insights — Research investor firms for portfolio size and team composition
- @google_search — Find recent news about investor activity, new fund raises, and portfolio moves
Input
The user will provide a company name and optionally specify what they want to do with the investor data.
Example: "Map the investors behind Figma — I want to find warm intros" or "Who backed Ramp and what else are they investing in?"
Context
What to Do
- Call @Crunchbase/Get OrganizationName it "Crunchbase/Get Organization" and call it with @Crunchbase/Get Organization for the target company to get the full investor list
- Categorize investors into: Lead investors (participated in multiple rounds), Strategic investors, and Angel/Individual investors
- For the top 5 investors (firms), call @LinkedIn/Get Company InsightsName it "LinkedIn/Get Company Insights" and call it with @LinkedIn/Get Company Insights to get firm size, team, and portfolio focus
- For notable individual investors or partners, call @LinkedIn/Get Profile With PostsName it "LinkedIn/Get Profile With Posts" and call it with @LinkedIn/Get Profile With Posts to get their background and recent posts
- Use @google_searchName it "google_search" and call it with @google_search to find recent fund announcements, portfolio exits, or thought leadership from key investors
- Cross-reference: flag investors who also back the user's competitors or adjacent companies
What to Look For
- Investors who led rounds (strongest relationship with the company)
- Investors active on LinkedIn (easier warm intro path)
- Investors who have backed similar companies (potential pattern)
- Recent fund raises by investor firms (indicates active deployment)
What Counts as a Valid Result
- Use actual Crunchbase investor names — don't fabricate
- Only include LinkedIn data for profiles that actually exist
- Note when an investor is a firm vs. an individual
- Flag any investors who are mutual connections or in the user's network (if mentioned)
