Find similar companies

Find up to 20 companies recommended by LinkedIn for a company you choose.

Send a request

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key, then run:

curl --get 'https://api.envoapi.com/v1/companies/similar/by-slug' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --data-urlencode 'slug=microsoft'

The slug is the part after /company/ in a LinkedIn company URL. For example, https://www.linkedin.com/company/microsoft/ has the slug microsoft.

Choose the endpoint that matches what you have. Both return the same response format.

Input	GET endpoint	Required parameter
Company slug	/v1/companies/similar/by-slug	slug=microsoft
Company URL	/v1/companies/similar/by-url	url=https://www.linkedin.com/company/microsoft/

Send one input per request. Use --data-urlencode for query values.

Read the response

data.companies contains the recommendations. Here is one company from the captured Microsoft response, with logoUrl omitted:

{
  "slug": "google",
  "companyUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/google",
  "name": "Google",
  "industry": "Software Development"
}

• Each company includes its name, slug, LinkedIn URL, industry, and logoUrl. The logo may be null.
• meta.creditCost is the number of credits charged for the request.
• An empty data.companies list means no recommendations were returned.

All recommendations arrive in one response. There is no pagination; do not send offset, cursor, or limit.

Use a returned slug with company lookup to get more company details. See the full response example for all fields, or Errors for help with failed requests.
