Crustdata provides public APIs for the data layer behind sales, recruiting, and research workflows. You can query indexed datasets of companies, people, jobs, and social posts, enrich a known entity with fresh attributes, resolve identifiers, search the web, and fetch page content — all over a single versioned REST surface.
Every endpoint in this version requires Authorization: Bearer <key> and x-api-version: 2025-11-01. Live endpoints (real-time retrieval from the web) are enterprise-only and plan-specific — review Pricing before you build against them.

​
API areas

Five product areas, grouped by entity. Pick the area for the entity you work with; each area’s introduction page walks the simplest query and links onward to filters, pagination, and the full reference.

Company

Search the indexed company dataset, enrich a known company, resolve a domain/name/URL to a Crustdata ID, and surface valid filter values with autocomplete.

Person

Search the indexed people dataset, enrich a known person, discover developer profiles, and surface valid filter values with autocomplete.

Job

Search the indexed job-listings dataset with filters, cursor pagination, and aggregations. Fetch real-time openings for a single company on demand.

Web

Search the web across news, web, scholar, social, and deep-research sources, or fetch the HTML content of any URL.

Social Post

Enrich recent social posts for a person or company, or search posts by keyword, recency, and author attributes.

​
What lives where

Every API area’s section opens with a short overview (orientation), then progressive how-to pages (filters, pagination, recipes), and finishes with reference (the full request / response schema). Use this map to pick the right page for your task:

First call

If you haven’t called the API yet, start with the simplest possible request — Company search by name, then layer filters from there. 
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.crustdata.com/company/search \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-api-version: 2025-11-01' \
  --data '{
    "filters": { "field": "basic_info.name", "type": "=", "value": "Crustdata" },
    "limit": 1
  }'
Continue with Company search or jump to any of the API areas above.

Migrating from the legacy APIs?

If you have an integration on the legacy /screener/* or /data_lab/* endpoints, head to the Migration guides overview — it lists every legacy endpoint, its current replacement, and the universal changes (auth scheme, version header, error envelope) that apply across every migration.
