# Start a pitch report

`POST /pitches`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.getintel.ai/api/v1`
- URL: `https://app.getintel.ai/api/v1/pitches`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Scan a company that isn't a client yet. Reads their website, works out what they sell and to whom, and runs one scan; the report is ready a few minutes later from the pitch endpoint. Spends one of the month's pitch reports — 402 when the plan has none left. The prospect is never billed as a client.
