I've been building StartupWiki, a free startup database designed to make it easier to discover and research companies.

The original motivation was frustration with how difficult it can be to find information on early-stage startups. Most databases need accounts, or subscriptions, ro just feel too cluttered. I wanted a website that felt like Wikipedia, no accounts, no subscriptions, no weird metrics, just go in, the info is on the page.

The project is still very early, but currently includes:

Startup profiles Search and filtering Company categorization Public API (in progress)

I'm especially interested in feedback on:

What information you look for when researching startups Features missing from existing startup databases API use cases

I'd love to hear feedback.
