Company Data Search API - industry, size and location

Company Data Search API turns a large global company dataset into a clean, structured export. Search companies by industry, employee count, location, founding year and tags, and export every match - name, website, size, industry, location, LinkedIn and social profiles - as JSON, CSV or Excel.

Bring your own API key and pay only for the records you keep.

Why use this actor?

Pay per result

You pay only for the company records the actor actually returns - no subscriptions, no minimums. Set Maximum results to cap each run's spend exactly.

FAQ

What is the Company Data Search API?

It is a company data API that lets you query a large global firmographic dataset by industry, size, location and more, then returns structured company records - name, website, industry, employee count, location and social profiles. This actor runs that search and exports the matches as JSON, CSV or Excel.

What filters can I use?

Company name text, industry, country, region or state, city, employee-count range, founding year, tags, and a require-website toggle. Power users can pass a raw Elasticsearch query object for full control.

What fields are returned?

Name, website, industry, employee count, size band, founding year, company type, headquarters location (city, region, country), LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook URLs, ticker and tags, where available.

How many results can I get per run?

Up to 5,000 company records per run, collected up to 100 per request via scroll pagination. For larger universes, split the search by industry, geography or size band across multiple runs.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is pay-per-result: a small fixed amount per company record returned, plus standard Apify platform usage, plus your own API usage against your key. A run that returns nothing costs almost nothing.

Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run it daily or weekly and connect the dataset to Zapier, Make, n8n, webhooks or the API to push new or updated accounts into your CRM or data warehouse.

Is this legal?

The actor returns company firmographic data retrieved through a licensed API using your own credentials. It focuses on company-level business data.
