Excel Export Limitations

PitchBook's academic license focuses on accessing data within their interface; users are limited to export a maximum of 10 records daily and 25 records a month

  • One record = one row of data in the spreadsheet (may include company, deal fund data, or people data)

What happens if I exceed my limit? 

If you reach your download limit, you'll receive an in-platform notification — but your access to PitchBook remains fully intact. You can continue using the platform; only the ability to download additional data is paused until your limits reset on the first of the month. Download limits are cumulative each calendar month and reset automatically on the first of each month. Unused downloads do not roll over. 

PitchBook Data Scraping and Repetitive Behavior Policy & Consequences

Data Scraping

You must abide by PitchBook's data scraping policies or you risk losing access.  PitchBook defines data scraping as using software, scripts, bots, browser extensions, or any automated tool to collect large amounts of data automatically. 

Repetitive Behaviors

These behaviors are rapid or bulk repeated queries: sending hundreds of search or company profile requests in a short window. 

PitchBook uses automated detection systems that monitor for these behaviors in real time. If your account is flagged, it will be permanently terminated immediately without warning. You will lose access to PitchBook for the remainder of your enrollment at your institution. This process is automatic; there is no manual review step, no grace period, and no reinstatement. Your institution’s overall license could also be affected.

Plugins and Apps

Pitchbook uses a number of plugins and apps that will streamline your workflows, including Excel, Chrome Extension and PowerPoint plugins and Pitchbook's Mobile app.
