Company search

Company Search finds businesses rather than people: build a universe of targets by sector, scale, ownership, and geography, then drill into any company’s leadership from its profile.

​

Run a search

1. In the left navigation, open Find Companies and click Company Search. The filter panel opens automatically.
2. Add your criteria:
   • Locations: filter by company headquarters, with the same radius and expanded matching controls as People Search.
   • Sectors: the heart of company search. Click Open sector browser to explore HelloSky’s sector taxonomy.
   • Scale: employee count, revenue, and funding ranges.
   • Attributes: ownership type (Public, Private, PE-Backed, PE-Primary, VC-Backed), company type (product versus services), B2B versus B2C, and investors.
   • Keywords, Date Filters, Smart Tags, Company Name: free-text keywords, founding date ranges, and name lookup.

​

The Sector Browser

The Sector Browser has two modes:

• AI: describe the areas you are targeting in plain language, and matching sectors are picked for you, along with related suggestions.
• Keyword: browse the sector tree yourself. Each top-level sector shows example companies and a company count. Click a sector to select it with all of its subsectors, then remove any subsector chips you do not want.

Click Update Search to apply your sector selection. For a detailed walkthrough of every filter, what it matches, and how to use it well, see the Company filters guide.

​

Work with results

• The button at the bottom of the filter panel shows a live count before you commit, for example Show 3.9M+ companies.
• Click any row for a quick company preview; from there, click the company’s name to open the full profile, with leadership, funding, and news.
• Save companies to a company list, or save the whole result set to your active folder.
