Finding Companies

Last updated: July 12, 2026

The Company search in Prospector helps you discover organizations that match your ideal customer profile. Search using manual filters or AI Search to identify companies based on their size, industry, growth, technology stack, funding, and other business attributes.

Whether you're building a target account list or researching companies before outreach, Prospector helps you narrow your search and identify the organizations most relevant to your campaigns.

Search using filters

Manual filters allow you to refine your search using specific company attributes.

Combine multiple filters to narrow your results and build a targeted list of companies.

Search by company

Start with the core information about the organization.

Available filters include:

  • Company Name

  • Domain

  • Industry

  • Company Type

  • Founded Year

These filters help you locate specific organizations or focus on companies within a particular market.

Filter by company size

Use company size filters to target organizations that match your ideal customer profile.

Available filters include:

  • Employee Count

  • Annual Revenue

These filters are useful when your product or service is designed for businesses of a particular size.

Refine by growth and funding

Identify companies based on their stage of growth.

Available filters include:

  • Funding Stage

  • Total Funding

  • Recent Funding

  • Company Growth

These filters can help you prioritize organizations that are actively expanding or investing in new initiatives.

Search by technology

Target companies using specific technologies.

For example, you can search for organizations using a particular CRM, marketing platform, ecommerce solution, or cloud provider.

Technology filters are especially useful for competitive targeting or identifying businesses that already use complementary software.

Narrow your search by location

Limit your search to companies operating in specific regions.

Search by:

  • Country

  • State or Region

  • City

Geographic filters help you focus on territories or markets relevant to your business.

Search using AI

Instead of selecting filters manually, you can describe the type of company you're looking for using natural language.

Enter your prompt and click Find Leads.

For example:

Find SaaS companies with 100–500 employees in North America that recently raised Series A funding.

Prospector analyzes your request and returns companies matching your description.

Note: AI Search works independently from the manual filters. Use either manual filters or AI Search to build your search.

💡 Prospecting Tip

"Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles."
— Steve Jobs

A focused list of well-qualified companies often produces better outreach results than a much larger list of loosely matched prospects.
