The Industry New Companies radar tracks newly launched startups and entrepreneurs coming out of stealth mode globally. Unlike company-specific radars, this monitors ALL new company formations and delivers them to your webhook endpoint. You can activate an industry_new_companies radar via the industry radar endpoint.

Stealth Mode Behavior

When stealth_mode: true, company data is intentionally limited as the startup is hiding details: Typically null:
  • domain - No public website yet
  • profile_url - No LinkedIn company page
  • description - Not revealing business details
  • industry - Keeping sector secret
  • categories - Empty array [], no classification
Still available:
  • name - Some company name (may be generic)
  • founded_at - Incorporation year
  • hq_country - Legal incorporation location
Founder data remains complete since it comes from public professional profiles, not company disclosure.
