API reference / Companies

Get a company's technologies

Written and maintained by The ProspectAPIs team

GET/v1/companies/:domain/technologies

GET /v1/companies/:domain/technologies is the ProspectAPIs operation getCompanyTechnologies, in the Companies group of the REST API. Costs $0.006 per lookup whose status is ok; none_detected and a 503 are free. The technologies a company's homepage, careers page and DNS records (TXT, MX, CNAME) show it uses, each with its category and evidence: the script, link, header, cookie name, meta generator or DNS record that matched and the page or record it was seen on. Every technology carries source, fetched_at, first_seen_at and last_seen_at. Answers 503 temporarily_unavailable while GET /pricing shows hiring_tech not available. Cost: Launching soon. Send your API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

How this fits with the rest of the companies API, with worked examples, is in the company profiles guide.

Parameters

An unknown query parameter is refused with a 400 rather than ignored, so a typo never widens a search you pay for.

Responses

Every error answers with the same JSON body, an error string and sometimes a code; the errors page lists each status and when it happens. A per-key 429 carries Retry-After; see rate limits.

200 response fields

The lookup's answer, with its status. The body is a CompanyTechnologies.

Code samples

Each sample sends the same request. Set PROSPECTAPIS_KEY in your environment first. Values come from the spec's examples; replace them with your own.

curl https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/companies/acme.com/technologies \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PROSPECTAPIS_KEY"

const res = await fetch("https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/companies/acme.com/technologies", {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.PROSPECTAPIS_KEY}` },
});
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status}: ${(await res.json().catch(() => ({}))).error ?? res.statusText}`);
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/companies/acme.com/technologies",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['PROSPECTAPIS_KEY']}"},
    timeout=30,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json()
print(data)

Billing

Billing reserves before it serves: the call holds what it may cost, serves at most what that hold covers, and refunds the rest when the response closes. Any non-2xx answer refunds the whole hold, so a failed call costs nothing. The response reports your balance in X-Credits-Remaining.
