Parameters

Parameter	Type		Notes
acquiree	string · query	optional	Slug, UUID, or name of the acquired organization. Example: `acquiree=fitbit` returns Fitbit's acquisition by Google. Find slugs via `/company/search` or `/autocomplete`.
announced_on_after	string · query	optional	Include only acquisitions announced on or after this date (`YYYY-MM-DD`). Example: `announced_on_after=2024-01-01`.
announced_on_before	string · query	optional	Include only acquisitions announced on or before this date (`YYYY-MM-DD`). Example: `announced_on_before=2024-12-31`.
page	integer · query	optional	Page number, starts at 1. Pages must be requested sequentially (1, 2, 3…) — skipping ahead returns 400. · default 1e.g. `1`

Pagination: only `rank_acquisition` supports paging past page 1. The other sorts return the top 15 results — requesting `page>1` with those fails with 400. · one of announced_on, completed_on, price, rank_acquisitione.g. `announced_on`

category	string · query	optional	Limit to acquisitions of companies in this category. Accepts name, slug, or UUID. Example: `category=artificial-intelligence`. Browse them via `/category/search`.
per_page	integer · query	optional	How many results per page (max 15). · default 5e.g. `5`
completed_on_before	string · query	optional	Include only acquisitions completed on or before this date (`YYYY-MM-DD`).
rank_max	integer · query	optional	Show only acquisitions ranked this good or better (lower rank = more prominent/talked-about).
sort	string · query	optional	`desc` for newest first, `asc` for oldest first. · one of asc, desce.g. `asc`
rank_min	integer · query	optional	Show only acquisitions ranked this or worse (higher rank = less prominent). Pair with `rank_max` to target a range.
