Common Questions
What users of our Company Discovery API ask us most
The Company Discovery API uses AI to convert your natural language description into a structured query. Describe the companies you're looking for (e.g., "AI companies with 100+ employees founded after 2015"), and the API interprets your intent and returns matching company profiles.
The Company Discovery API has a default rate limit of 50 requests per minute per API key. Higher limits are available for enterprise customers. Each request can return up to 100 results.
The Discovery API is best for exploratory searches where you don't want to write SQL. The Search API gives you precise control with SQL-like WHERE clauses. Both access the same data.
The AI handles firmographic queries well: industry, size, type, founding year, growth characteristics, and workforce metrics. Complex multi-criteria descriptions work well.
Authentication is handled via API keys. Include your API key in the API-Key request header. Contact our sales team to get started.
