Illustrative output #
Fictional records, to show the shape of what comes back.
| name | domain | industry | employee_count | linkedin_url |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Northwind | northwind.example | Logistics software | 240 | linkedin.com/company/northwind-example |
| Tailspin | tailspin.example | Travel tech | 85 | linkedin.com/company/tailspin-example |
| Wingtip | Fintech | 30 | linkedin.com/company/wingtip-example |
20 portfolio companies on the first pull for 10 credits (20 × 0.5); 2 have no domain on record and are left empty for enrichment, and the full portfolio waits for your go.
What it costs #
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
theirStack.searchCompanies | 0.5 per company returned |
Never run this across a full list on the first attempt. Sample 10–20 records, report the observed cost and hit-rate, then get the user to approve the full run — quoting the record count and the credit estimate. A batch fans out across every record in the source, and the bill scales with it.
Worth knowing #
company_investors_partial_match_ormatches part of the investor name, so"Sequoia"catches “Sequoia Capital” and its regional funds. Usecompany_investors_orwhen you need the exact name only, and read each row’sinvestorsbefore reporting, since a short fragment can match an unrelated fund.- For Y Combinator there is a dedicated flag,
"only_yc_companies": true, in the samefieldsobject. Other accelerators go through the investor filter like any VC. - Narrow in the same call when the portfolio is large:
funding_stage_or,last_funding_round_date_gte,min_employee_countandcompany_country_code_orall sit beside the investor filter infields. - Billed per returned company: 0.5 credits each, so a 140-company portfolio is 70 credits.
limitcaps the bill (default 10, max 500). - Not People Data Labs: Cargo’s PDL company schema carries no investor field (
summaryis the plain-text description), so an investor query there has nothing to match against. - One warm investor intro beats fifty cold emails; pull the list, then ask the investor for the intro.
