Lookalike Companies

What does CompanyEnrich Lookalike Companies do?

CompanyEnrich Lookalike Companies finds lookalike companies from one or more seed company domains. Enter a domain such as apple.com or up to 10 seed domains, and the Actor returns ranked lookalike companies with match scores, company preview fields, credit metadata, and the full CompanyEnrich company object.

The Actor is built for users who want CompanyEnrich lookalike data through Apify workflows, schedules, datasets, webhooks, integrations, and no-code automations. Users run the Actor with domain and filter inputs only.

Why use CompanyEnrich Lookalike Companies?

Use this Actor when you need ICP expansion, competitor discovery, market mapping, account recommendations, ABM audience building, or research workflows that start from known seed accounts.

CompanyEnrich is an API-first B2B data platform for platforms, AI agents, RevOps teams, and GTM workflows. Its lookalike company data returns enriched company profiles, so downstream workflows can use lookalike results without an extra enrichment step.

How to use CompanyEnrich Lookalike Companies

1. Open the Actor in Apify Console.

3. Choose page, similarityWeight, and optional filters.

5. Download results from the default dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or through the Apify API.

Each run returns a fixed page of up to 10 lookalike companies. The page size is not configurable. To get more results, increase page and run the Actor again.

Output

The Actor writes one item per similar company to the default dataset. You can download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or access it through the Apify API.

Example dataset item:

{
    "status": "success",
    "seedDomains": ["apple.com"],
    "rank": 1,
    "score": 0.92,
    "domain": "example.com",
    "name": "Example Inc.",
    "website": "https://example.com",
    "linkedinUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example",
    "industry": "Consumer Electronics",

        "domain": "example.com"
    }
}

The default key-value store also contains an OUTPUT summary record with seed domains, page, fixed page size, result counts, and pagination metadata.

Pricing and usage

This Actor uses Apify pay-per-event pricing. Each run requests a fixed page of up to 10 companies, so similar-company events are charged for that fixed page when pay-per-event pricing is active.

CompanyEnrich documents POST /companies/similar as costing 5 credits per company returned, with 5 credits if no results are found. Enabling expandWorkforce costs additional CompanyEnrich credits per company.

Tips and advanced options

• Use clean bare domains such as apple.com.
• Use multiple seed domains when you want lookalikes for a broader account set.
• Use similarityWeight to tune between closer similarity and more established companies.
• Use countries, keywords, technologies, or additionalFilters to narrow results.
• Use page to request the next fixed 10-result page.
• Use Apify schedules, webhooks, integrations, and API access to connect lookalike results to downstream workflows.

FAQ, disclaimers, and support

Does this Actor scrape websites?
No. It calls the CompanyEnrich REST API and stores the API response in Apify datasets.
