Search entities by name
Fuzzy-match one name across companies, people, and investors in a single call, with matches grouped by entity type. This is the unified replacement for the per-type name searches.
What you need
Nothing beyond your API key. Pass a query with the name you’re searching for. This call is free.
Behaviour
Returns fuzzy name matches across companies, people and investors, each with a match_confidence. Only matches above the confidence threshold are returned, and a query with no match returns an empty list. It is a catalogue lookup and never triggers enrichment.
What you do next
- Pull the full record. Take a match’s ID and load the profile with Get company by ID, Get person by ID or Get investor by ID.
