PitchBook API endpoint
Use Crawlora's PitchBook limited partner profile API to extract supported public PitchBook data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/pitchbook/limited-partnerReturns the free/teaser content of a PitchBook limited partner (institutional investor, e.g. pension fund, endowment, or insurance company) profile page: overview, description, contact, and a preview of fund commitments. PitchBook gates most numeric figures and full lists behind a paid subscription; those come through as empty cells rather than being fabricated. Some limited partner profiles have no FAQ section (thinner profiles) -- this is normal, not a sign of a blocked or broken response. Pass exactly one of `id` or `url`. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | No | PitchBook limited partner id | ||
| url | string | No | Absolute https://pitchbook.com/profiles/limited-partner/<id> URL | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/pitchbook/limited-partner" \ -H "x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY"
Send your scraping API key in the x-api-key header. Use the console API Keys page to rotate or select the active key.
Endpoint usage is metered in credits. The plan prices, included credits, limits, and overage rates below match the active backend billing configuration.
| Plan | Price | Included credits | Daily cap | Rate limit | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 2,000 | 500 daily credits | 5/min | No overage |
| Starter | $9/mo | 20,000 | 5,000 daily credits | 15/min | $0.75/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Growth | $29/mo | 100,000 | 25,000 daily credits | 45/min | $0.45/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Pro | $79/mo | 400,000 | No daily cap | 120/min | $0.30/1,000 overage credits |
| Business | $199/mo | 1,200,000 | No daily cap | 300/min | $0.20/1,000 overage credits |
| Enterprise | $499/mo | 5,000,000 | No daily cap | 1,000/min | $0.12/1,000 overage credits |
This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- Passing neither or both of `id`/`url` returns an invalid-parameter error. - A `url` that isn't an absolute `https://pitchbook.com/profiles/limited-partner/<id>` URL returns an invalid-parameter error. - A response missing the profile name is treated as an upstream error (parser drift or a blocked/challenge page), never a `200` with empty data. - Some limited partner profiles have no FAQ section at all — PitchBook only generates one for profiles with enough content. `faqs` being empty on an otherwise complete response is normal, not a sign of a blocked or broken request. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "kind": "limited-partner", "id": "864326-44", "name": "TKP Pension", "description": "TKP Pension is a corporate pension based in Groningen, Netherlands.

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
