Browser extensionSee who backed any startup, on their own website
You find a company worth knowing about and the next question is always the same: who funded them, and can I reach those people? The AngelBacked extension answers it in the tab you already have open.
Included with every paid plan. Nothing extra to buy.
How it works
Three steps, and only the first one is work.
Install it and sign in
One click from the Chrome Web Store, then sign in with the AngelBacked account you already pay for.
Open a startup's website
The toolbar icon badges when we hold a record for that domain, so you know before you click.
See who backed them
The angels and firms on the cap table, what the company raised, and how to reach the people involved.
What a record actually tells you
- Who invested
- The angels and firms behind the company, drawn from 58,000+ investors and 454,000+ portfolio relationships.
- How much they raised
- Round, amount and date, so you can tell a pre-seed experiment from a company with real runway.
- Who those investors are
- Title, firm and location for each name — context before you decide whether to reach out.
- How to reach them
- Contact details for the investors on the list, with one-click copy.
What it does not do
A browser extension sees a lot by default. This one is built to see as little as possible: it reads the hostname of your active tab and nothing else. Not the page, not the path, not your history. There are no content scripts, so nothing is injected into the sites you visit, and it talks to no server other than ours.
Your session is stored on your own device and every lookup is authorised server-side against your subscription. Full detail in the extension privacy policy.
Frequently asked questions
What does the AngelBacked extension do?
When you're on a startup's website, it shows which angel investors and firms backed them, what the company has raised, and contact details for the people involved — in a panel, without leaving the page.
Do I need a paid plan?
Yes. The extension is included at no extra cost with any paid AngelBacked plan. Free accounts can sign in but are asked to upgrade before any investor data is shown.
How many investors are in the database?
More than 58,000 angel investors and VCs, mapped across 454,000+ portfolio relationships, so most funded startups resolve to a list of the people who actually backed them.
Does it read the pages I visit?
No. It reads only the hostname of the active tab, for example "stripe.com". It never reads page content, full URLs, paths or your browsing history, and it injects no scripts into the sites you visit.
Why would I use this instead of the website?
Because research happens while you're already browsing. If you're going through a list of companies, a batch of inbound, or a competitor's customer page, the answer arrives where you are instead of in another tab.
Which browsers does it work in?
Chrome, and any Chromium-based browser that installs from the Chrome Web Store — including Edge, Brave and Arc.
