1. Overview
The Company Deep Intelligence API generates structured, source-cited intelligence on any company or set of companies. Where Company Instant Enrichment returns raw firmographic data, this API returns AI-synthesised narratives — product portfolios, strategic moves, launch timelines, key customer profiles, leadership analysis, and employee sentiment — going well beyond what structured databases can provide. This is an asynchronous POST API — submitting a request returns arequest_id (a UUID string) and an initial "PENDING" status immediately. You then poll the Request Status endpoint until status becomes "COMPLETED", at which point the full result is embedded directly in the status response.
The two-step workflow:
This API uses the same async pattern as Industry Deep Intelligence —
request_id (UUID string), polls request/status/, and embeds the completed result directly in the status response. It does not use the Workflow API infrastructure (report_id, get_notebook_status, download_report). The two patterns are not interchangeable.- Multi-company in one request — pass an array of company identifiers (
companies) to enrich 1–N companies simultaneously. Results are returned as a dict keyed by each company identifier. - Section-selective output — choose exactly which of the 9 section types to generate. Request only what you need; each additional section adds processing time.
Common use cases:
- Pre-IC product intelligence sweep — for a set of target companies, request
products_and_services+product_launches+strategic_initiativesto understand product trajectory and roadmap signals before a committee meeting - Competitive diligence on multiple players at once — send 3–5 competitors in a single
companiesarray and get parallel product and business model analysis without chaining calls - Leadership due diligence — request
management_profilesfor an acquisition target and its key executives to surface background, tenure, and track record data - Customer and partner mapping — request
key_customers+partnershipsto identify major accounts and technology alliances before outreach or deal structuring - Employee health monitoring — request
employee_sentimentacross a portfolio to catch early cultural warning signals or compare workplace satisfaction across peers - CRM enrichment pipeline — batch enrich a watchlist of companies on specific sections and push results into Salesforce, HubSpot, or DealCloud records automatically
2. Quick Start
Step 1 — Submit a request3. Authentication
All requests must include a Bearer token in theAuthorization HTTP header.
4. Request Reference
EndpointThere is no hard-coded limit on the number of companies per request, but processing time scales with the number of companies × sections. For large watchlists, consider batching into groups of 5–10 companies and running requests concurrently.
5. Response
Submission response
The initial POST returns a202 Accepted with two fields:
Status polling response
PollGET /api/enterprise/request/status/?request_id={request_id}. Status values:
Completed result structure
When status is"COMPLETED", the polling response includes a result object. The result is a dict keyed by company identifier — one entry per company submitted in the companies array:
"https://tesla.com", the result key is "https://tesla.com". If you sent "tesla", the result key is "tesla". Use the same identifier to look up each company’s data.
Per-company object structure
Each company object contains three top-level keys:firmographics
A lean identity card for the company. No financials — for financial data use Peer Comparison or Company Research.
CP enrichment
A dict containing your requested sections. Each section key maps to a section-specific data structure (see section schemas below).
meta
Section-level response schemas
products_and_services
sources field on each product area item is a string range (e.g. "1-3", "4-6") referencing IDs in the product_overview.source array — not a standalone citations array.
product_launches
summary inside each launch is an array of strings (bullet points), not a single string. sources here is an array of citation objects (not the string-range pattern used in products_and_services).
strategic_initiatives
strategic_moves is an array of area objects. Area is a string label (e.g. "Layoffs", "Hiring", "Office expansion", "Awards and recognitions"). Details is an array of sourced bullet-point objects.
The
sources field schema differs between sections. In products_and_services items, sources is a string range like "1-3". In product_launches and strategic_initiatives, sources is an array of citation objects with url, title, publisher, and publishedDate. Always check the type before iterating.6. Examples

7. Error Handling
The API uses standard HTTP status codes. The submission endpoint returns a202 on success and synchronous errors for invalid requests. Processing errors appear as "FAILED" when polling.

"FAILED" request status:
8. Best Practices
Request only the sections you need — each section adds processing time Unlike Workflow APIs that produce a fixed full report, this API generates only the sections you explicitly request. A focused two-section request (e.g.products_and_services + product_launches) completes significantly faster than all nine:
"zendesk", "stripe") resolve faster and more reliably than website URLs, particularly for companies with complex domain structures. Use the Company Search API to look up a company’s permalink when you only have its name:
companies array is significantly faster than five separate requests, because companies are processed in parallel on Wokelo’s infrastructure:
"https://tesla.com", the result key is "https://tesla.com". If you submit "tesla", the key is "tesla". Mixing identifier formats in the same request (some URLs, some permalinks) produces result keys in the format you used. Be consistent within a request to simplify downstream processing:
sources schema differs between sections — check type before iterating
In products_and_services, the sources field on each product area item is a string range (e.g. "1-3") referencing the product_overview.source array by ID. In product_launches and strategic_initiatives, sources is an array of citation objects. Always check the type before iterating:
product_launches.summary is an array of strings, not a single string
Each launch object’s summary field is a list of bullet-point strings, not a single narrative string. Iterate it rather than printing directly:
request_id is a UUID string — use the correct polling endpoint
This API returns request_id (UUID string). The Workflow APIs return report_id (integer). They use completely different polling endpoints and cannot be swapped:
