Q: What does this company do, and how big is it?

the brief, the headcount by department, the technologies enrich .com with apollo on monid and give me the industry, headcount, location and description. read the whole response before you call anything else: it carries more than the brief the brief: 2,600 staff, the industry, a San Francisco HQ, founded 2014, market cap $8.3B and more: the same payload carries the departmental headcount and a 240-item technology list what that means: one call answers three of the six jobs on this page the disagreement: the structured headcount says 2,600 while the prose in the same response says about 2,375, and on a second company a round's own description said total funding reached $130M while the rows beside it summed to $175.1M what the description promises and omits: the endpoint's own summary says it returns funding history and the payload carries no funding field at all; a second company's response was 53 KB with none

the shape965 in engineering against 372 in sales, so this is a product company, not a sales-led one

the tailsupport 258, HR 196, finance 161, and a dozen smaller functions

the habita second endpoint for this would have been $0.10 and told you less

the deep listmore than 240 tools, from cloud infrastructure to HR, sales and security systems

the detector$0.0356 for five signals it read off the public HTML: a CDN, analytics, a framework and two marketing tags

why the gapone reads a company record, the other reads one page's source

it is not dearer, it is redundantthe detector is $0.0356 against the enrichment call's $0.05, so it is cheaper per call; the point is that you already paid for a list sixty times longer, so running it is a second charge for a worse answer

and it can be wrongon a marketing-automation company the detector reported no marketing automation, because it is reading one page's headers rather than a company record

the failurethe other provider's funding endpoint 502'd twice and billed nothing; the catalog had already flagged it degraded

the shortcut that costs 6xa sibling takes the domain directly with no lookup, which looks like the cheap route; it is priced per result with a silent page size of ten and billed $0.42 for the same seven rounds

and then the investorsthat sibling returns investors as bare ids, so resolving the names the sentence asks for is another call per round; the honest budget on that route is eight calls and $0.84 against $0.07 on this one

three of five are per resulton this provider only the lookup and the company call are per call; the deals, companies and rounds endpoints all multiply by the page size you did not set

the price$0.0009 for the whole set, the cheapest job on this page by a wide margin

the duplicatethe same press release came back twice under two tracking urls, and both count as results; on a second company ten rows were five distinct stories and eight of the ten were press releases

the date formatthis endpoint wants epoch milliseconds, so a plain date string is rejected before the call is made, which costs nothing but stops the job

and the filter leakstwo rows came back with a null published date despite a published-after filter being set

the set663 matches, with real peers on the first page

the noisethe subject came back inside its own lookalike list; on a second company it was the fourth result, beside five staffing and jobs firms and a car maker, an airport and a newspaper, with three of twenty-five usable

the wrong toolthe semantic-similarity endpoint billed $0.0121 and returned ten more pages of the subject's own website

the cause is in the responsethe breadcrumbs field says the keyword filter is an ANY match, so one shared word is enough to pull a company in, and nothing in the request suggests that

you cannot clean it from these rowsthe results carry no industry, no headcount and no location, so filtering out staffing firms means enriching every row at $0.05 each, which is more than the search cost
