Hunter Discover is designed to help you find and connect with companies more efficiently than ever. Whether you’re searching for potential clients, partners, or just need detailed company insights, this feature is your go-to resource.
Here’s how you can start leveraging it to its full potential.
Getting Started
Hunter Discovery lets you find company names based on different filters that can be combined to target your search to your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) and find emails for them.
The filters include:
Company Name: to find a company starting from the name.
Headquarters location: where the company is located (city, country or continent).
Industry of the company.
Size: number of employees in the company.
Keywords: use keywords to find companies related to certain products, services, or features.
Technologies: to filter companies using a specific technology (available only on a paid plan).
You can find the Hunter Discover on your dashboard. It's accessible from the main menu or by clicking here, ensuring you can start your search with just a click.
How to find companies using Hunter Discover
Using the AI Assistant
Discover provides an AI Assistant that helps you easily locate companies by simply describing them in a sentence.
You can access this feature from the center of the Discover page or through the filter menu on the left, by clicking on the small, sparkling AI icon.
To find companies, simply enter a sentence that matches your ICP, such as "Accounting companies in Germany", click on the magnifying glass or on Apply in the filter menu to launch the search.
The AI Assistant will automatically apply filters to your research that match your request and find relevant companies for you. You can also manually edit these filters and add additional ones if needed.
Using Filters
You can begin your search by inputting the company name, location, keywords, size, industry, or technologies in the search fields of Hunter Discover. You can use one or a combination of filters to refine your search results to match your specific needs.
Each filter offers both "Include" and "Exclude" options, allowing you to either apply a filter to include a certain industry, location, or keyword, or to specifically exclude them from your search.
Save a Search
After adding filters, you can save them in a dedicated search that you can quickly access.
Click 'Load' to see your saved searches.
You'll also find all saved searches when navigating to Hunter Discover, ready to be accessed with a single click.
Exploring Company Profiles
Viewing Company Details
To dive deeper into a company, simply click on the result you’re interested in. This will expand the company’s profile, providing comprehensive details, including a company description, size, industry, and technologies used.
Discovering Professional Emails
Within the expanded company profile, you’ll find a section dedicated to professional emails associated with the company. This is your key to connecting directly with decision-makers and key contacts. Click the "Find email addresses" button to find emails for the company.
💡We recommend saving the emails found as leads to ensure they will be stored in your Leads section.
Bulk actions
Find emails from multiple companies
Choose individual companies or select all at once, then click the "Find email addresses" button to find email addresses for all the selected companies.
These selected companies will be added to a new Bulk Domain Search, allowing you to find emails for all of them simultaneously.
ℹ️ You can select a maximum of 100 companies at a time.
Export company names in CSV
The "Export as CSV" button allows you to export the selected companies in a CSV file: this functionality is free.
Below, you can find a sample of the resulting CSV file.
ℹ️ The CSV export is limited to 10,000 companies on a paid plan and to 100 companies for users on a Free plan.
Best Practices
Refine your search: Use multiple filters to narrow down your search results. This can significantly increase the relevancy of the companies you find.
Explore broadly: Don’t hesitate to explore companies outside your immediate requirements. Diversifying your search can uncover unexpected opportunities.
Regular updates: Company information and associated emails are regularly updated. Make sure to check back often for the most current information.
