**APIs profiled:** 1

Owler is a crowdsourced competitive- and business-intelligence platform that maintains real-time profiles on more than 20 million public and private companies, tracking firmographics, funding, and news across 45M+ competitive relationships contributed and validated by a community of 5M+ business professionals. It is delivered as web and mobile apps (Owler Community, Pro, and Max), a Chrome extension, and CRM and collaboration integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, Microsoft Teams, ChatGPT). The Owler Enterprise API is a real, publicly documented REST API: a Swagger UI developer portal at developers.owler.com renders an OpenAPI 3.0.1 definition (six read operations across Company Premium, Competitor Premium and Feed, served from https://apiv2.owler.com, authenticated with an x-api-key header) that is fetchable at https://developers-v3.owler.com/apis/api3-swagger.json. Access to the data itself is sold through the data-licensing sales motion rather than self-serve signup, and Owler ships no first-party SDKs, CLI or MCP server. Owler was acquired by Meltwater in 2021. Added to the API Evangelist network from the Norwest Venture Partners portfolio.
