Point Ari at companies you already win with, and it finds more companies like them. Your best customers are the clearest picture of who buys. A look-alike list puts that picture to work. You will end up with: a company table of look-alikes, added to your starting list or kept separate, ready to score and to find people at. Before you start: look-alike search works best with a look-alike data provider connected under Settings › Connections › Integrations. Without one, Ari falls back to a broader search by description and tells you so. Starting from your won deals needs a CRM connected. Ari is available on Enterprise and Enterprise Plus seats, and on Admin seats.

​
Three ways to start

All three are the same ask, and Ari runs the same search for each.

​
Steps

1

Load your starting list

Or paste names:
2

Ask for look-alikes

Ari uses every company on the starting table at once. Add limits when you want them:
3

Or start from one company

Ari matches the name to the company’s real website first, so a business with the same name doesn’t sneak in. Giving the website removes any doubt.
4

Remove the ones you already know

Both checks are free.
5

Score, then find people

​
Look-alike people

The same idea works for people. Start from a few of your best contacts and ask for more like them. Ari returns people with similar roles and backgrounds for you to review.

​
How it works

Look-alike search compares companies by industry, size and what they do. It finds companies only: it never returns phone numbers or emails. So it’s usually followed by a people search and, if you want, phone lookups. The rows arrive with size and location, so you can trim before you look for people.
