From dashboards to automation
Used for token discovery, buyer profiling, and faster insights
“We were tracking everything manually. Now we get data on buyer behavior, balances, and transactions in one request. The API has saved us hours and helped us scale our research.”
— Igor, Analyst at WebCapital
The Problem
WebCapital is a venture investment and onchain research firm that’s been analyzing token trends since the early days of DeFi. The team had been using Nansen Pro dashboards for months to monitor token movements and buyer behavior, but much of the insight generation still required manual effort.
“We upload data on the tokens we are interested in on a regular basis. We monitor the tokens section and major movements.”
Tracking buyer activity, compiling statistics, and storing trends meant cross-referencing several tools and manually pulling wallet data every week. For a lean team running fast, this workflow wasn’t sustainable.
“The speed of data processing and recording it for general statistics manually is less convenient compared to automatic unloading via API.”
As token markets evolved faster and smart money moved quicker, the team realized they needed something more scalable — something programmable.
The Solution
WebCapital uses the Nansen API to streamline its data gathering and reporting processes.
They immediately integrated key endpoints:
- Token God Mode to track buyer inflows and wallet-level metrics
- Nansen Profiler to dive deeper into wallet-level data
- Telegram alerts to stay on top of movement in real-time
These endpoints became the foundation of a more automated internal research pipeline. With just a few API calls, the team could now pull structured data on token buyer behavior — including purchase amounts and wallet balances — without ever logging into the dashboard.
“It is convenient to collect statistics of buyers for each token for a week.”
This shift allowed the team to spend less time pulling data and more time interpreting it.
The Results
Since using Nansen’s API, WebCapital has removed the friction in their weekly token review process.
“Faster research time, improved decision making, reduced time during data extraction and statistics structuring.”
Instead of manually compiling spreadsheets, the team now automatically tracks buyer activity and token momentum — a key part of their investment analysis.
“We receive information about a buyer immediately with data on his purchase amounts and balances in one request.”
The result? Fewer missed opportunities and more timely alpha generation, driven by onchain behavior.

Summary
With Nansen API, WebCapital transitioned from reactive, manual research to an automated, insight-driven workflow. They gained a clearer view of buyer behavior, improved internal decision making, and built a research engine that scales with the market.
“All services work perfectly. It’s very convenient and gives a lot of information at once instead of collecting it in different sections.”
