Top performance across benchmarks.

Exa Company Benchmark
ABOUT
Exa's open-source company benchmark measures 950 queries related to industry, geography, headcount and funding stage.
EVALUATION
It tests whether a search API can find companies by facts that keep changing. Providers score well here by retrieving rather than by recalling a company it already knows.
RESULT
More of the ten companies we return are ones you'd actually use, so there's less to throw away before the list is workable. The right company lands somewhere in those ten as often as with Exa. Each search takes about a third of a second, which is fast enough to run several inside a live request.

Exa People Benchmark
ABOUT
Exa's open source benchmark for people search. It covers 1,400 questions, each describing someone by what they do, how senior they are, and where they work.
EVALUATION
It tests whether an API can find the right person when you describe them instead of naming them, like a senior security lead in Berlin. The people in the set are real but not famous, so a system can't recall them and has to work from profile data that's current.
RESULT
Describe a person by role, level, and city, and you get the right profile about as often as with any provider tested. Each lookup takes roughly a third of a second, and the slow ones stay close to that, so a product checking six people in a row finishes in seconds rather than half a minute.

OpenBenchmarks
ABOUT
Openbenchmarks scores nine lookalike providers across 48 B2B seed companies and added us to the board themselves. Every number is reproducible from the published audit trail.
EVALUATION
It tests whether a provider can take one company and return others a buyer would seriously consider alongside it. Lists are scored at ten rows and at a hundred, because a shortlist someone works by hand and a long list an automated sequence runs through are two different jobs.
RESULT
Give us one of your best customers and ask for a hundred similar companies, and more of that hundred hold up than with anyone else on the board, so a sequence can run the full list rather than just the top of it. Per dollar spent, we return the most usable companies of any provider measured.
