Clearbit Name to Domain alternative

Lost your free Clearbit Name to Domain key? Swap one request.

Clearbit turned off free Name to Domain keys on April 30, 2025. Company Domain Lookup does the same job: send a company name and get its official website, plus a confidence score that tells your code when to save the match and when to ask a person.

Free plan: 10 lookups a month. 1,000 lookups cost $40 a month. No sales call.

Field mapping from Clearbit

What to change in your code, field by field.

Clearbit Name to Domain Company Domain Lookup What it means for your code
name (query parameter) company_name (JSON body) The same company name you sent to Clearbit.
None additional_context Optional country, industry or product line to tell apart companies with similar names.
domain domain The official website domain, or null when there is no confident match.
name company_name The company name used for the match.
logo Enrichment: data.logo_url Send the domain to Elvesora Enrichment when you also need the logo and company profile.
HTTP 404 when not found found: false, confidence: 0 A clear no-match in a normal response, so your code does not treat it as an error.

None reasons[], lower_reasons[] Why the domain was chosen, and what lowered confidence.

Move over in four steps

  1. Step 1

    Create a Domain Lookup token

    Sign up, open Company Domain Lookup and create a team API token. The Free plan includes 10 lookups a month.

  2. Step 2

    Swap the request

    Replace the GET call to company.clearbit.com/v1/domains/find with a POST to /api/prospecting/company and send company_name in the body.

  3. Step 3

    Read found and review_recommended

    Save the domain when review_recommended is false. Queue the rest for a person to check instead of writing a wrong website into your CRM.

  4. Step 4

    Add Enrichment if you used the logo

    Clearbit returned a logo URL with the domain. Send the domain to Elvesora Enrichment to get logo_url, industry, headcount and more in one profile.
