Prompt to replace Crunchbase
Use looot to for each company I give you, return what it does, its size, its funding rounds, its leadership and recent news. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.
