When should I run this workflow?

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.
Which tools can run this workflow?
Delivered as a data share to Snowflake, Databricks and Amazon S3. Or call the endpoints in the steps above from your own code with one API key.
How many steps is this workflow?
4 steps: count current roles per company and department from people_feed (role_title, forager_organization_id, start_date, end_date), compute department headcount growth over the last 6 and 12 months, join company_feed for size and industry so growth is compared within peers and write a department-growth score to each account and trigger plays above a threshold.
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.
Can our users see Forager data in 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.
