How to Search for Companies in Lead Explorer

Company Search lets you find and research 90M+ business records worldwide. Use it to identify target accounts, research prospects, or build account-based lists.

Step 1: Open Company Search

  1. Click Lead Explorer in the left sidebar.

  2. In the filter panel on the left, make sure the Company tab is selected. It's selected by default.

Step 2: Apply your filters

Filter

Description

Company Name

Search by name, with an Exact Match option

Domain

Find a company by its domain

Website URL

Match on a specific website

LinkedIn URL

Match on a company's LinkedIn page

Industry

The company's industry category

Company Size

1-10, 11-50, 51-200, 201-500, 501-1000, 1001-5000, 5001-10000, 10001+

Company Revenue

Fixed revenue bands from 0-500K up to 10T+

Country / State / Region / City

Location filters, applied separately

Tech Stacks

Find companies using specific technologies

Intent Topics

Companies actively researching a topic (Bombora data)

Business Events

40+ trigger events such as new funding round, IPO announcement, or leadership change, with a 30/60/90-day lookback

Business Events are the strongest buying signal available in Lead Explorer — a company that just raised funding or changed leadership is far more likely to respond than one picked on firmographics alone.

Step 3: Review your results

Results appear as a table. Company Name and Domain are always visible; the remaining data sits in enrichment column groups you can unlock:

  • Firmographics — revenue, country, headquarters, employees, website, LinkedIn, industry, description, ticker, locations

  • Technographics — the company's tech stack

  • Financial metrics

Locked values show a View … button with the credit cost on hover.

Step 4: Find people at a company

Click View People on any company row. This switches you to the People tab with the search already filtered to that company, so you can find the right contacts immediately.

Step 5: Save companies

Select the companies you want and click Add To List.

Important: companies must be enriched before they can be added to a list. If you select unenriched rows you'll see "Enrich leads first" — run enrichment on them, then add them.
