You can set this up using Custom Signals to automatically find companies that raised funds:
1.
Create a Custom Signal: Click + Add → Custom signal in a workbook or Actions → Import → Custom signal in a table [1]
2.
Select a funding data source to monitor - you'll see estimated credit costs per result
3.
Configure the source and set how frequently you want it to run
4.
Use Find Companies with funding filters: You can also use Find Companies and filter by funding amount to target companies with specific investment levels [2] [3]
Custom Signals let you monitor data sources for specific changes on a regular schedule, including tracking fundraising activity [4]. This will automatically populate your table with new companies as they raise funds.
Try using Sculptor (top-right corner) to help build this workflow - it's free and can quickly set up automations for you!

To use RSS feeds in Clay, you need the actual RSS feed URL, not just the website URL. TechCrunch's main page (https://techcrunch.com/) isn't an RSS feed. [1]
Try these TechCrunch RSS feeds instead:
All posts: https://techcrunch.com/feed/
Startups: https://techcrunch.com/category/startups/feed/
Funding news: https://techcrunch.com/category/fundings-exits/feed/
To add it: Click + Add in your workbook → Search for RSS → Enter the feed URL. [2] The feed will import as individual rows in your table. [3]
If you're still having trouble, try Sculptor (top-right corner) - it can help set this up quickly!
