  title: Dealroom API
  version: '2026-07-06'
  description: >-
    REST API for the Dealroom platform — companies, funds, founders, investors,
    funding rounds, valuations, taxonomy, news, and aggregate analytics across
    all of them. Authentication uses Auth0 (Bearer JWT or OAuth2
    client_credentials). All endpoints are versioned via the `API-Version`
    header (Stripe-style date-based versioning).

      the entity index, scoped to companies.

    description: >-
      Funds — the capital vehicles investor firms raise (e.g. "Fund III", $200M,
      2024). Browse/filter by manager, type, size, and vintage; each fund links
      to its manager (GP). Fund size (`amount`) converts to the requested
      `?currency=` (default USD); `amount_source` carries the original
      native-currency amount.
  - name: People
    description: >-
      Person profiles (founders, executives, angels, and others). Subset of
      entities where `entity_type = 'person'`. Same response shape as founders,
