Search Companies
/companies/searchSearch for companies on LinkedIn using keyword filters and industry criteria. Returns company summaries with name, industry, size, and LinkedIn identifiers. Essential for building company databases, competitor discovery, and market mapping workflows where you need to find organizations matching specific criteria.
Call it over REST
Authenticate with a bearer token against https://api.superagnt.com. Swap the placeholders for your key and parameter values.
curl -s -X POST "https://api.superagnt.com/companies/search" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_AGNTDATA_API_KEY>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "keyword": "<string>", "locations": [] }'Copy-paste prompt
Paste this into a coding agent. It connects the superagnt MCP server, finds the tool data_linkedin_search_companies, and runs a first call — with the REST fallback if MCP is unavailable.
You are wiring up the superagnt "LinkedIn" API to use this endpoint: Search Companies.
1. CONNECT over MCP (preferred). No token to paste either way.
On Claude (claude.ai, the desktop app, or Claude Code signed in with a Claude
account), the server is a connector: give the user this link, they click Add
and approve:
https://claude.ai/customize/connectors/yours?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=superagnt&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.superagnt.com%2Fmcp&open_in_browser=1
Any other MCP client (or Claude Code signed in with an API key): add the server
and let the client run the browser sign-in:
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http superagnt https://mcp.superagnt.com/mcp
claude mcp login superagnt
MCP endpoint: https://mcp.superagnt.com/mcp
After connecting, the tool you want is named exactly:
data_linkedin_search_companies
Call agnt_tools_search or agnt_tools_list_enabled to confirm it is available.
2. REST fallback (if you are not using MCP):
POST https://api.superagnt.com/companies/search
Header: Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_AGNTDATA_API_KEY>
Required parameters:
- (none)
Optional parameters:

and report back the shape of the JSON response (top-level fields).
