What does company_profile return, and when should you call it?

Return a company's public professional profile: headcount, industry, location, and self-description.

employees_in_linkedin is the best generally available proxy for company size and, tracked over time, for momentum. This does NOT include funding (use wuthering_company_funding) or technology stack (use wuthering_company_firmographics).

Returns: an ARRAY containing one record, so read element 0. Its fields include id (the profile slug, for example 'anthropicresearch'), company_id (a separate numeric string), name, about, description, industries, company_size, employees_in_linkedin, followers, website, locations, and headquarters.

This response is LARGE: alongside those fields it carries employee cards, recent posts with raw HTML and media URLs, similar companies, and job counts, and it can exceed the response limit and be truncated. Read the fields you need from the start of the record rather than expecting to parse the whole thing.

Use as the first call on any company you know little about. Don't use when you specifically need money or technology facts.

What parameters does company_profile take?

company_profile accepts 3 parameters, none of them required. Array values are comma-separated on the query string.

Parameters accepted by the company_profile operation
Parameter	Type	Required	Description
url	string	no	LinkedIn company profile URL, if you have it. Exact, and skips the lookup step. Find it with your OWN web search first: `site:linkedin.com/company "Acme"` returns it directly. wuthering_web_search is the fallback if you have no search of your own, and is billed. Never construct a URL — a wrong one returns a dead page, not an error.
company	string	no	Company name, used when you have no URL. Resolved here with a billed search that takes the first plausible match, so prefer finding the URL yourself and passing it.
domain	string	no	The company's website domain, for example 'acme.com'. Strongly recommended alongside a name: it disambiguates common names and prevents matching the wrong company.
