Dealroom Next-Gen API — Feedback for the API / Data team

Compiled 2026-05-21 from a side-by-side reconciliation between the Dealroom platform app and the public API (api-next.beta.dealroom.co), building the US/AI startup guides. Listed in order of severity. Each item includes a concrete reproducer.


1. (Severity: high) Unicorn-tag count short on the API for US scope

Cross-ref baseline that surfaced the rest of this doc. App filter tags/anyof_verified unicorns and $1b exits + founding_or_hq_slug_locations/anyof_~united_states~ returns 2,082 entities. The equivalent public-API query and(tag_id[in_any]:2135301, location[eq]:233) returns 2,054 — short by 28 (net of a 34-missing / 6-extra diff against an app CSV export).
