The job

When
A supplier searches the database for brands launching products in its category, or a brand list is exported for outreach.
Outcome

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do lead databases use Forager company enrichment?

Let a vertical supplier-to-brand database (or a supplier itself) attach R&D, formulation, sourcing and procurement contacts to every consumer brand it lists. Firmographics for a company from its domain or name: industry, headcount, locations, growth and open roles. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.

What does company enrichment cost for lead databases?

Company enrichment: 1 credit per request, charged whether or not data comes back. 1,000 company lookups use 1,000 credits: about $13 of Starter credits month to month, or about $10 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

Why do lead databases add company enrichment?

Power your lead database without maintaining scrapers. Products like yours are judged on connect rate and cost per valid result, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what company enrichment returns for your users before you build on it.

How do I find product developers at cpg brands?

Match listed brands to companies with POST /organization_search/. Find R&D, product development, formulation and procurement leads with POST /person_role_search/.

What do I send, and what comes back?

You send ICP description, target account list and account domain. You get back work_email, role_title, phone_number and industry, from POST /organization_search/, as JSON.

Can we show Forager data inside our product?

Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager data to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.

Am I charged when nothing is found?

Yes. Company enrichment is charged per request, whether or not data comes back. Only mobile and email lookups are free when nothing is found, so try your inputs on a small run before you scale.

Is there a free way to try Forager?

Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.

Which open-source CRMs can find new leads automatically?

The workflow uses Forager People search, Person enrichment and Company enrichment. People search: Find the people who hold a role at target companies, filtered by title, seniority, department and location. Give small businesses lead finding inside their AI CRM so they don't buy a separate data tool.

How do you check data quality?

The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.

How is a company enrichment API different from a company database export?

An export is a snapshot you have to refresh yourself. A company enrichment API returns firmographics for a domain or name when you ask: industry, headcount, locations, growth and open roles, ready to write to the record.

Does Forager integrate with the tools we already use?

Native in Clay, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
