Filter your leads: people and companies

Learn how to filter your leads and companies in the Leads section

Updated over a month ago

Filtering helps you quickly narrow down your saved leads and companies in the Leads section. Instead of scrolling through large lists, you can apply filters to focus on the contacts or companies that match specific criteria.

You can use filters to prepare contacts for email sequences, verify emails, or analyse targeted company segments.


How filtering works

Filters allow you to narrow your People and Company lists based on specific attributes such as company location, job title, verification status, or industry and more.

You can:

  • Apply one or multiple filters at the same time

  • Combine filters to create precise segments

  • Clear all filters at once to reset the list

💡Filtering is especially useful before adding leads to Sequences or verifying emails.
