Our journey
One entry a year, from a single-market experiment to a global platform under a new name.
Company founded
Founded as Oddup, with a vision to democratize startup intelligence and make investment data accessible to everyone.
100K+ companies
Passed 100,000 companies tracked across Asia — the first proof that the model worked at scale, and the foundation everything since has been built on.
Global expansion
Expanded beyond our Asia base into North American and European startup ecosystems, becoming a truly global platform.
Investor data
Turned the lens around. Alongside the companies, we began mapping the firms and angels funding them — who backs whom, at what stage, and how often.
AI integration
Launched our AI-powered recommendation engine, revolutionizing how investors discover opportunities.
300K+ companies
Reached a major milestone of tracking over 300,000 companies worldwide with comprehensive data.
50K+ investors
The investor index passed 50,000 firms and angels, giving every funding round a named backer rather than an anonymous figure.
500K+ companies
Half a million companies under coverage, and the shift from periodic updates to a daily refresh — the data started keeping pace with the market.
100K+ investors
The investor index doubled again to over 100,000, completing the picture on both sides of every deal.
800K+ companies
Crossed 800,000 companies and $5T of disclosed funding across a quarter of a million rounds, all maintained by a fully automated daily ingest.
Oddup becomes UnicornHunt
After a decade as Oddup, we became UnicornHunt — a name that says plainly what the platform has always done: find tomorrow’s breakout companies before the rest of the market does. Same team, same data, same daily discipline; a name that finally matches the mission.
