# Company Search Endpoint

The **Company Search** endpoint lets you **find and list companies** based on flexible filters (name, domain, industry, size, location, keywords, etc.).\
Use it when you **don’t have a Social URL** yet and need to discover or shortlist the right companies before enrichment.
