Founders are read from the page that names them: an accelerator batch listing, the company's own site or its X account. A picture comes from the person's X or LinkedIn profile and is only kept when the profile name matches theirs, so 50% have one and the rest show initials. Each latest raise links to where it was reported. One row per person, with the page that names them, as JSON: /api/v1/founders.
