Pubrio Company Search is a paid API for AI agents from agents.pubrio.com, paid per call via MPP, $0.010000/call, status down (last checked 2026-10-12).
Search the Pubrio database of 800M+ companies using natural language or structured filters by industry, size, location, technologies, and expansion signals.
Search the Pubrio database for companies matching specified criteria such as industry, size, location, and technologies.
Returns a paginated list of matching company records with metadata including industry, size, location, technologies, and expansion signals, plus request context metadata such as echoed parameters, credit usage, and any unmatched query criteria flagged in metadata.unmatched_criteria.
POSThttps://agents.pubrio.com/companies/search?utm_source=zero.xyzUse this endpoint when you need to discover or prospect companies across a broad database with flexible criteria — especially when using natural language queries, expansion signals like recent hiring or new offices, or Asia-Pacific market data that Western datasets miss. Prefer this over people search when the primary entity of interest is the company itself rather than individual contacts.
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| page | integer | Page number, starting at 1. The ceiling is your subscription's `max_search_page` (`max_company_search_page` for company search), returned by [Profile](/en/api-reference/endpoint/profile/profile). Exceeding it returns **HTTP 416**. |
| query | string | Natural-language search. When provided, Pubrio interprets it into the company filters below: industry (and industries to leave out), specialty, technology (and tools to leave out), social profiles, HQ country, region or city, head-count, revenue, founded year, roles being hired and where, news events such as "recently expanded", advertising (platform, format, target country, ad counts, impressions, dates, rank in one country) and cloud hosting (provider, server countries and cities, host and server counts, overall or in one country). Values joined by "or" match any of them; tools or profiles joined by "and" ("uses both Salesforce and HubSpot") must all match. Any explicit filters you also pass take precedence over the interpreted ones. A part of the sentence no filter can express (for example ownership) comes back in `metadata.unmatched_criteria` rather than being dropped; a sentence with nothing searchable returns no results with `metadata.nl_no_intent: true`. |
| places | array | Place names (city, region) used to filter results. Accepts localized or English place names. |
| domains | array | List of company domains used for company and people search operations. If we receive a URL such as `www.pubrio.com` or `https://docs.pubrio.com/`, the system will convert it to `pubrio.com` for processing. |
| filters | object | |
| sort_by | string | Result ordering. Omit for the default relevance order. `advertisement_country_rank` orders by the company's advertising rank inside the country named in `advertisement_country_activity` (rank 1 = biggest advertiser in that market) and is ignored unless that filter is present. Pair with `is_ascending_order: false` to list the smallest advertisers first. Not yet available: `name` (either direction) and `relevance` with `is_ascending_order: false` — those requests time out. Use the default relevance order, `number_of_employees` or `founded_year` instead. |
| keywords | array | A list of keywords to filter companies by relevance, specialties, or descriptions. |
| per_page | integer | Records per page. Defaults to 25, which is also the ceiling on most plans — the limit is your subscription's `max_search_per_page`, returned by [Profile](/en/api-reference/endpoint/profile/profile). Exceeding it returns **HTTP 416** with code `41676` (or `41613` on company and people search), not a clamped result set. |
| revenues | array | Minimum and maximum range of company revenue. |
| companies | array | A list of unique identifiers (domain_search_id) used for company and people search operations. |
| employees | array | The number range of employees working for the company. This enables you to find companies based on headcount. You can add multiple ranges to expand your search results. Check out `company size` endpoints under the Filters tab for more information. |
| locations | array | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (cca2) is used for filtering locations. Check out `location` endpoints under the Filters tab for more information. |
| verticals | array | A list of `vertical_id` used to search for companies in a specific vertical or industry. To find the ID, call the `vertical` endpoint under the Filters tab. This filter supports `is_enable_similarity_search`, once enabled you can enter any free text, e.g. `["AI"]`. |
| categories | array | A list of `category_id` used to search for specific categories of technology used by companies. To find the ID, call the `category` endpoint under the Filters tab. This filter supports `is_enable_similarity_search`, once enabled you can enter any free text, e.g. `["CDN"]`. |
| job_titles | array | Job titles associated with the individuals you aim to locate. The results will also encompass job titles that include similar terminology, even if they do not match exactly. For instance, searching for `software engineer` may yield results for individuals with the title `senior software engineer`. |
| company_name | string | Filter search results to include a specific company name. If the value you enter for this parameter does not match with a company's name, the company will not appear in search results, even if it matches other parameters. Partial matches are accepted. |
| social_media | array | Companies with a profile on any of: `linkedin`, `facebook`, `instagram`, `tiktok`, `twitter`, `x`, `github`, `wantedly`, `rocketpunch`. Promote to AND with `filter_conditions`. |
| technologies | array | A list of `tag_id` used to search for specific technologies used by companies. To find the ID, call the `technology` endpoint under the Filters tab. This filter supports `is_enable_similarity_search`, once enabled you can enter any free text, e.g. `["Shopify"]`. A product name the technology list knows matches that product and its own products (`"Salesforce"` also matches Salesforce Desk and Salesforce Service Cloud), never look-alikes; other text matches by similarity. |
| founded_dates | array | Years of company founded range. The maximum value founded is the current year. |
| job_locations | array | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (cca2) is used for filtering locations. Check out `location` endpoints under the Filters tab for more information. |
| linkedin_urls | array | The fully formed URL of the LinkedIn company profile. URL begin with `http` and contain `linkedin.com/company/` |
| company_groups | array | Restrict to members of these company groups (ids), such as a monitor's `source_group_id` or `excluded_group_id`; paginated like any search. |
| exclude_fields | array | List of fields to exclude from the response payload. |
| exclude_places | array | Place names (city, region) to exclude from results. Accepts localized or English place names. |
| company_filters | object | Wrapper object for company-level filters. Recommended grouping that visually separates which keys filter the *person* (top-level) from which filter the *company*. Accepts the same keys as the top-level company filters (e.g. `technologies`, `verticals`, `vertical_categories`, `vertical_sub_categories`, `categories`, `keywords`, `founded_dates`, `employees`, `revenues`, `company_locations`, `company_exclude_locations`, `company_places`, `company_exclude_places`, `companies`, `domains`, `company_linkedin_urls`, `is_enable_similarity_search`, `similarity_score`, plus `filter_conditions`). Engine flattens this object to the top level before processing — top-level keys win on conflict. Same shape used by Monitor `company_filters`. See the Filters Overview developer guide for examples. |
| news_categories | array | List of `category slugs` for searching for specific news categories. To find a slug, call the `news categories` endpoint under the Filters tab. |
| job_posted_dates | array | Date range of the posted date. The maximum value is the current day. Day boundaries follow your workspace timezone. |
| similarity_score | number | It is used in conjunction with `is_enable_similarity_search`. This number is used to analyze whether a specific slug (e.g. vertical industry, technology) is similar to the user input, and the higher the number, the more stringent it is. |
| exclude_locations | array | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (cca2) is used to filter out locations that does not need to be returned. Check out `location` endpoints under the Filters tab for more information. |
| filter_conditions | array | Advanced filtering options for company searches. Specify conditions combining keys and logical operators to refine search results. |
| is_ascending_order | boolean | Direction for `sort_by`. Defaults to ascending, which for `advertisement_country_rank` means the biggest advertisers first. |
| vertical_categories | array | A list of `vertical_category_id` used to search for companies in a specific vertical category. To find the ID, call the `vertical category` endpoint under the Filters tab. This filter supports `is_enable_similarity_search`, once enabled you can enter any free text, e.g. `["Information Technology"]`. |
| advertisement_status | array | `currently_running`: companies with advertising on record. `active_last_30_min`: companies whose advertising changed in the last 30 minutes. |
| exclude_technologies | array | Technologies the company must not use, as `tag_id`s or, with `is_enable_similarity_search`, names such as `["Shopify"]`. A company with no known technologies is kept. |
| news_published_dates | array | Date range of the published date. The maximum value is the current day. Day boundaries follow your workspace timezone. |
| advertisement_formats | array | Find companies with at least one advertisement in any of these creative formats. |
| job_exclude_locations | — | Geographic locations to exclude from job posting results. |

| vertical_sub_categories | array | A list of `vertical_sub_category_id` used to search for companies in a specific vertical sub-category. To find the ID, call the `vertical sub category` endpoint under the Filters tab. This filter supports `is_enable_similarity_search`, once enabled you can enter any free text, e.g. `["Software"]`. |
| advertisement_active_ads | array | Minimum and maximum count of the company's currently active advertisements, across all countries. Use `null` for an open-ended bound, e.g. `[1, null]` for "at least one active ad". |
| advertisement_running_ads | array | Minimum and maximum count of the company's advertisements that are still running (no end date, or an end date in the future). Currently populated for LinkedIn ads only. |
| advertisement_start_dates | array | Start date range for advertisement filtering. |
| cloud_footprint_providers | array | Companies that use any of these providers anywhere. The unprefixed `providers` narrows the rows returned; this narrows the companies. |
| advertisement_active_dates | array | Find advertisements that were running at any point during this date range (overlap-based: includes ads that started before the range and are still running, not just ads that started inside it). |
| advertisement_format_count | array | Minimum and maximum number of distinct advertisement creative formats the company is actively running. |
