Show HN: Free Company Autocomplete API

Either there's an off-by-one error or there's a weird design decision. Typing "y c" doesn't include the "c" in the search (so it lists websites like Yahoo first) but "y co" finds Y Combinator.

If you could combine this with the one <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;certsimple.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;certsimple.com&#x2F;</a> uses, that would be awesome!

Brilliant idea and brilliant API. Is the company API limited to companies with an online presence&#x2F;social media account?

You have a small typo on <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;clearbit.com&#x2F;pricing" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;clearbit.com&#x2F;pricing</a>.<p>&quot;What happens if I go over my plan&#x27;s alloted requests?&quot; =&gt; &quot;What happens if I go over my plan&#x27;s <i>allotted</i> requests?&quot;<p>Really neat service!

I was impressed when it located the tiny company I current work for (The Day News &amp; Media) but less impressed that it couldn&#x27;t find the enormous multinational I used to work for (John Wiley &amp; Sons). Where does it source the data from?

How could a company be added to the database?

Curious.. which tools you used for managing the backend of all these APIs? (authentication, rate limiting, etc)

I work for credibility.com (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;credibility.com&#x2F;search" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;credibility.com&#x2F;search</a>), and we get our data from Dun &amp; Bradstreet. Our search seems to have more results (~18MM docs).

Does anyone know if an API exists that returns whether a company is in good standing with a secretary of state?<p>Checked out the Clearbit API and I didn&#x27;t see that type of data in there.

Do you have plans to add more fields in the response? For example, it would be nice to get the company&#x27;s ticker symbol if they are publicly traded.

It&#x27;d be great if it allowed domains and hyperlinks as a search filter.

I have been using clearbit the last few months and it really is a great service with the best api docs and versioning I have seen to date (a la stripe). We use clearbit for company, persona, compliance, and prospect data.<p>Checkout <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;svbtle.com&#x2F;signup" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;svbtle.com&#x2F;signup</a> for a great experience built on clearbit. @maccman + team is killing it.<p>Clearbit is more narrowly focused on business apis, but in my experience Clearbit does a better job with company&#x2F;persona data globally than orb intelligence, everstring, relateiq, madisonlogic.<p>Feature request: Better api key management to easy manage multiple environments (upgrading api versions between dev&#x2F;prod)
