Power custom workflows, automate sourcing and enrichment, and stream data into your systems for scoring, routing, and analysis. Designed to integrate seamlessly with existing workflows so you can operationalize Specter’s data at scale.

🔓 Access

Request an API key from your API Console. Approvals typically complete within one business day.


📋 Plans

1) Enrichment API

Streamlined enrichment for users who don’t need the full Specter platform or universal search.

What you get

  • Targeted enrichment of a provided list of companies or individuals (e.g., from your CRM or dealflow)

  • Included endpoints:

    • POST Get/Enrich companies

    • POST Get/Enrich people

  • No web app seat is required for the Enrichment API.

Example use case

A growth team has 2,000 leads in their CRM. They use the Enrichment API to append funding rounds, headcount growth, and key executive profiles to those records by sending domains or person identifiers and receiving Specter’s enriched data in response.

2) Full API

Comprehensive programmatic access to Specter’s data and workflow features.

What you get

  • Complete data access

    • Company & People Databases

    • Proprietary Signals

  • Workflow automation

    • Create and save lists

    • Retrieve all search results programmatically

    • Subscribe to new results or updates as they occur

  • Featured endpoints

    • Retrieve verified emails

    • Pull similar companies

    • Additional endpoints are added on an ongoing basis

Example use case

A fund tracks AI startups in Europe raising capital, monitors talent flows from Google into these companies, and obtains founder email contacts. With the Full API, the fund can save searches, subscribe to updates, and programmatically join company, people, and signal data into its internal dealflow pipeline.

Requirement: To use the Full API, you must have at least one seat on the Specter web app. This enables you to manage searches and lists in the UI and pull all results via API.
