Hydrant API

Quickstart

Make a key, then get your first company.

Make a test key

Sign up, make a workspace, and open API keys. Choose Make a test key and copy it: it's shown once, when it's made. A test key starts with hyd_test_, costs nothing, and reads the sandbox: eleven well-known companies.

export HYDRANT_API_KEY=hyd_test_...

Get a company

curl "https://api.hydrantapi.com/v1/companies/enrich?domain=stripe.com" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HYDRANT_API_KEY"

The answer is the company's record: each field with its value, a confidence from 0 to 1, and the sources that back it.

{
  "domain": "stripe.com",
  "hq_location": {
    "value": { "city": "South San Francisco", "region": "US-CA", "country": "US" },
    "confidence": 0.4886,
    "sources": ["wikidata", "gleif", "website"]
  },
  "founded_year": { "value": 2010, "confidence": 0.57, "sources": ["wikidata"] }
}

Add include=evidence to see what each source said, and where.

Switch to a live key

A live key (hyd_live_) reads and enriches any company. Make one on the same page. Your plan includes credits: an enrichment costs 10 and reading a stored record 1, and an enrichment that finds no company costs nothing.

curl "https://api.hydrantapi.com/v1/companies/enrich?domain=your-customer.com" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HYDRANT_API_KEY"

A company we haven't seen in the last 30 days is enriched while you wait, usually in 20 to 30 seconds. If it takes longer than 30 seconds, the answer is a 202 with the enrichment to follow: see one call.
