cool stuff. how are you grouping data startups within the funding categories section?

i'd be interested to see the breakdown in recent years of startups that offer a data product, i.e. data infrastructure, ad optimization, user tracking, etc

I would like to be more specific with the categories, but crunchbase for the most of internet based startups the main category is "Consumer Web".

If you want, you can download the database and check the companies table https://www.dropbox.com/s/pzhqhtk4g23temz/crunchbase.sql.zip
