## Clean Company API endpoints

{% hint style="info" %}
Our API is a data retrieval tool. The endpoints do not support analytic features.
{% endhint %}

Clean Company API features **two search** endpoints and **three collect** endpoints to retrieve clean company data. Use the endpoints with any API-compatible application.

| Request type | Endpoint                                                    | Function                                                                             |
