Company Search API - firmographics, headcount and funding

Company Search API turns a real-time company dataset into a clean, structured export. Screen companies by industry, region, headcount and growth signals, and export enriched firmographic records - website, LinkedIn, headcount and headcount growth, funding and location - as JSON, CSV or Excel.

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

Why use this actor?

• Firmographic screening - filter a large company universe by industry, region or country, and headcount range.
• Growth signals - each record can carry month-over-month, quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year headcount growth, funding and web-traffic figures.
• Enriched output - company name, website, domain, LinkedIn URL, headcount, growth percentages, valuation, total investment and location, parsed into flat columns.
• Advanced filters - use simple fields for the common cases, or pass raw filter objects for full control over every supported signal.
• Pay per result - you are charged only for the company records actually returned, up to 1,000 per run.
• No proxies, no blocks - data comes through a stable API, so runs are fast and reliable.

Use cases

• Lead generation and TAM building - build target account lists by industry, geography and size.
• Market mapping - map a sector's players and rank them by headcount or growth.
• Sales intelligence - prioritize accounts that are growing headcount or recently raised funding.
• Investment research - screen private companies by growth and funding signals.
• CRM enrichment - append firmographics and growth metrics to your existing account list.

Input

Configure everything from the visual editor - every filter is a proper field, no code needed. Example JSON input:

{
  "industries": ["Software"],
  "regions": ["United States"],
  "headcountMin": 50,
  "headcountMax": 500,
  "maxResults": 100,
  "apiKey": "YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}

For signals beyond the built-in fields, add raw filter objects:

{
  "rawFilters": [
    { "filter_type": "INDUSTRY", "type": "in", "value": ["Financial Services"] },
    { "filter_type": "COMPANY_HEADCOUNT", "type": "between", "value": [200, 1000] }
  ],
  "maxResults": 250,
  "apiKey": "YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}

Output

One clean JSON object per company:

{
  "company_name": "Acme Analytics",
  "company_website": "acme.com",
  "company_website_domain": "acme.com",
  "linkedin_profile_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/acme",
  "linkedin_headcount": 320,
  "linkedin_headcount_yoy_percent": 18.4,
  "valuation_usd": 450000000,
  "crunchbase_total_investment_usd": 82000000,
  "days_since_last_fundraise": 210,
  "largest_headcount_country": "United States",
  "region": "San Francisco Bay Area",
  "company_id": 123456
}

Do I need an API key?

Yes. This actor calls a company data API on your behalf, which requires your own API token. Sign up self-serve with the provider to get a token, paste it into the input, and run. Your token is stored securely and never logged.

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 Search API?

It is a company data API that lets you screen a large, continuously updated company universe by firmographics and growth signals, then returns enriched records - website, LinkedIn, headcount, headcount growth, funding and location. This actor runs that search and exports the matches as JSON, CSV or Excel.

What filters can I use?

Built-in fields for industry, region or country, and a headcount range. For any other supported signal - growth rates, funding, and more - add raw filter objects in the Advanced field, each in the form { "filter_type": ..., "type": ..., "value": ... }.

What growth and funding data is included?

Where available, each record carries LinkedIn headcount plus month-over-month, quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year headcount growth, valuation, total investment, days since last fundraise, and monthly web visitors - ideal for prioritizing fast-growing or recently funded accounts.

How many results can I get per run?

Up to 1,000 company records per run, paged automatically. For larger universes, split the search by industry, region or headcount 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 token. 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, not personal data.
