Companies
Search for companies using structured definitions.
How It Works
Provide a structured definition of your target companies in the definition field — our AI will find matching companies. All other filters are optional. See the request schema below for the full list of available filters.
Definition examples:
- "YouTube video summarization tool"
- "electronic signature platform"
- "AI B2B SaaS"
- "real estate company"
AI Enrichment
Use the criteria parameter to score companies against custom criteria. Each company will be evaluated and scored (0-5) with reasoning for each criterion.
Pricing
- First 10 results are free (including AI enrichment)
- A positive credit balance is required for every request, free results included (an organization at 0 credits gets a 402)
- Entirely-free requests are limited per organization by plan: free 50/day + 10/min · starter 200/day + 15/min · growth 500/day + 20/min · pro 750/day + 25/min · agency 1500/day + 30/min · enterprise 3000/day + 30/min (429 beyond); billable requests are not affected
- 0.5 credits per company after the first 10
- +0.1 credits per company per criterion after the first 10
Example: 150 companies with 2 criteria = 50 billable × (0.5 + 0.1 × 2) = 35 credits (first 10 are free)
Empty results = 0 credits.
Deduplication
Pass dedup list ids in exclude_lists to skip companies you already own — they are not returned and not charged. Free results zone does not apply. See the Deduplication endpoints.
