company.search

Search for companies: pay per use, no API key

Use People Data Labs from Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, and other agents through one Cralo balance.

Search People Data Labs' company dataset with bounded read-only SQL and return normalized company records. This matches structured filters (name, domain, industry code, size, location) against a company database; it is not suited for topical or category discovery, such as "startups in X space" or naming the well-known companies in an industry — use `exa.search`, `perplexity.ask`, or `brave.web-search` for that kind of research instead.
