Company research for AI agents

Research one company in one call

Technology, open roles and hiring intent, public Google Ads, and published contacts, plus a breakout_summary growth estimate. $0.03 per qualifying result; at least two of four sections must contain data. Growth estimates are not financial forecasts.

1. Connect the focused B2B profile: 9 tools

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hirepulse": {
      "url": "https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp?profile=b2b"
    }
  }
}

Remote HTTP MCP needs no package installation. More client setup options.

2. Try the free sandbox

Demo data, not a live company: example.com returns a labeled synthetic preview and does not consume free calls.

curl -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/company-profile -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"domain":"example.com"}'

The response labels its sandbox and includes the four company sections and breakout_summary. Replace the demo domain with a real company to use your free allowance.

3. Claim 25 trial calls for real research

Call claim_free_trial with one active Base wallet or business email. No email is sent. Keep the returned token private and pass it as X-Trial-Token, or MCP params._meta["hirepulse/trial_token"]. The 30-day pass covers supported single-tool lookups; private lookup and paid inbox allocation are excluded.

curl -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/trial -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"email":"you@your-company.com"}'

Use your own business email in the example above. Download the investor radar n8n workflow. Review its inputs before running it.

Four ready-to-configure n8n research workflows

Manual workflows with Sandbox defaults. Review Settings before running; optional private lookups and paid inboxes are off by default. Downloads do not authorize payment.

• Intent-first outbound research
• Commerce readiness and competitor evidence
• Merchant evidence and optional test inbox
• Company and vendor research

Read setup, pricing and limitations.

Commerce research: a separate focused profile

For product data, store discovery and merchant evidence, connect the 11-tool Commerce profile.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hirepulse": {
      "url": "https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp?profile=commerce"
    }
  }
}

The complete 27-tool endpoint remains available at https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp. Public support: GitHub issues. Never post trial tokens, inbox credentials or wallet keys.

Try it now, no wallet

Copy this command and run it. It returns a real answer for example.com, a demo domain that never uses your free calls. For any other company, change the domain: the first 10 calls a day are free.

curl -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/tech-stack \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"domain":"example.com"}'

Ask the free advisor

curl -sS -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/ask-advisor \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"agent_goal":"find B2B leads"}'

Returns the recommended tool, its price and your free-call balance. Then make a real lookup; the first 10 successful calls a day are free:

curl -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/tech-stack \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"domain":"example.com"}'

Step 1: read the price (no lookup, no free call used)

curl -i -X POST https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/tech-stack \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'X-HirePulse-Quote-Only: true' \
  -d '{"domain":"example.com"}'

HTTP/1.1 402 Payment Required
PAYMENT-REQUIRED: eyJ4NDAyVmVyc2lvbiI6Mi...  (base64 x402 v2 terms)
Link: <https://gethirepulse.xyz/llms.txt>; rel="describedby", <https://gethirepulse.xyz/.well-known/x402.json>; rel="payment"

Step 2: pay USDC on Base and get the data

An x402 client signs the PAYMENT-REQUIRED terms, repeats the request with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE and receives HTTP 200. Only results with status ok are charged.

// npm i @x402/fetch @x402/evm viem   (runs on the buyer's machine; the key never leaves it)
import { privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem/accounts';
import { x402Client, wrapFetchWithPayment } from '@x402/fetch';
import { ExactEvmScheme } from '@x402/evm/exact/client';

const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY);
const client = new x402Client().register('eip155:8453', new ExactEvmScheme(account));
const paidFetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, client);

const res = await paidFetch('https://gethirepulse.xyz/v1/tech-stack', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({ domain: 'example.com' }),
});
console.log(res.status, await res.json()); // 200 + PAYMENT-RESPONSE header

No crypto wallet? Use Claude, Codex or Gemini with a wallet you top up

Install Coinbase Payments MCP once, add USDC in its wallet window (Coinbase Onramp, card where available) and set a spending limit. Payments MCP pays x402 APIs from that wallet within your limits: ask your agent to send the HTTP request from the table below through it. Coinbase docs.

npx @coinbase/payments-mcp

Prefer a credit card without crypto? Several tools also run as Apify Actors, a separate service billed by card.

Cursor, Windsurf and other clients with remote MCP

  "mcpServers": {
    "hirepulse": {
      "url": "https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hirepulse": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Or add https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp as a custom connector in Claude settings.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http hirepulse https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp

Shorter tool lists: https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp?profile=b2b (company data) or https://gethirepulse.xyz/mcp?profile=commerce (shops and merchant checks).

MCP calls use the free calls first. After that an MCP client pays inside MCP with x402 (params._meta["x402/payment"], done automatically by the @x402/mcp client).
