Company identification connects a website visit with a business when a match is available.

## Why it matters

Use the business name to decide whether further research is worth your time.

## Illustrative example

A visit can be associated with a software company instead of remaining an unnamed page view.

## What to check

It does not identify the person browsing or prove buying intent.

## How Data SDK fits

Data SDK connects website visits with available company details worldwide, from startups to larger businesses. Coverage and fields vary. Start free trial opens an email request; terms are confirmed with the team. The full API is coming soon.

These are suggested workflows, not a list of built-in integrations. Use your own approved analytics, CRM, and research process where needed. Matches and fields vary. A company match does not identify a person or prove buying intent.
