FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do market intelligence use the people data feed?

Publish an index of AI capability by company (e.g. banks) from talent counts, moves and hiring. A licensed file of 800M+ professional profiles, refreshed on a schedule and delivered to Snowflake or S3. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.

How much does the people data feed cost for market intelligence?

People data feed is a flat annual licence, global or regional, not priced in credits. The price depends on the records, fields and refresh schedule you license, so talk to sales with your use case and we quote it.

Why do market intelligence add the people data feed?

Map markets without maintaining your own scrapers. Products like yours are judged on freshness and fields, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what the people data feed returns for your users before you build on it.

How do I track competitor AI hiring?

Add AI hiring velocity and talent moves from job_postings_feed and people_feed changes. Publish ranked benchmarks and competitor deltas.

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.

Is there a free way to try Forager?

Yes. Request a sample extract of the people data feed on a 30-minute call and check the fields against your own records before you license it.

How do I enrich CRM accounts in Snowflake?

Load company_feed into the warehouse on each delivery. Match CRM accounts by domain; resolve unmatched domains with POST /organization_search/.

How accurate is Forager data?

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.

Should I use the people data feed or the API?

Use the API when your product needs one person at a time, at the moment a user asks. License the people data feed when you need the whole layer in your own warehouse or search index, for analytics, matching or retrieval, without a call per record.

Does Forager integrate with the tools we already use?

Delivered as a data share to Snowflake, Databricks and Amazon S3. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.

Is there a contract or minimum commitment?

Data feeds are licensed on an annual agreement, with the term, volume and refresh schedule written into it. There are no self-serve plans for feeds.

Where does Forager data come from, and is it compliant?

Market intelligence often have to explain their data source to their own customers. Bring your legal and security questions to a call with our team, and we take you through how Forager data is sourced and the terms that cover people data feed for market intelligence. Forager's privacy policy is public, and anyone can send a request about their own personal data through the consumer rights form on forager.ai.
