​
Enrichment API

Streamlined enrichment for users who don’t need the full Specter platform or universal search. What you get
  • Targeted enrichment of a provided list of companies or individuals (e.g., from your CRM or dealflow)
  • Included endpoints:
    • POST Get/Enrich companies
    • POST Get/Enrich people
  • No web app seat is required for the Enrichment API.
Example use case A growth team has 2,000 leads in their CRM. They use the Enrichment API to append funding rounds, headcount growth, and key executive profiles to those records by sending domains or person identifiers and receiving Specter’s enriched data in response.

​
