Use it from code, AI assistants or automation platforms
Call the REST API from your app, connect your AI assistant through MCP, or add it to any automation platform that can send HTTP requests, like n8n, Make or Zapier.
All prices are monthly subscriptions in USD. Each rate per 1,000 searches is the plan’s price divided by its searches, not a pack you can buy on its own. Before rounding, Scale is $1.996 and Volume is $1.799.
People, companies, jobs and posts. You can also find companies by website domain, find posts by hashtag, or search everything at once with /v1/search. Every route is a GET request that returns JSON.
Do I need a LinkedIn or Sales Navigator account?
No. You only need an EnvoAPI API key. The filters are EnvoAPI’s own, so they don’t include every Sales Navigator or Recruiter filter.
How much does each search cost?
Each search request costs 1 credit, and every page of results costs the same. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card, and paid plans start at $49 a month for 10,000 searches.
How do I get the next page of results?
Check meta.paging in the response. In people search, if hasMore is true, send nextOffset as offset in your next request. Job search uses start instead, and each route’s paging limit is in the docs.
Can I filter people by location, company or school?
Yes. People search can filter by location, current or past company, industry, school, service category and profile language. Most filters take IDs, which you get from lookup routes such as location search or company details.
Can I use it with Claude or ChatGPT?
Yes. Add the EnvoAPI MCP server to your AI client and sign in. Your assistant can then search people, companies, jobs and posts when you ask in plain language.
How fresh are the results?
EnvoAPI fetches public data when you send a request, so you see what is public at that moment. Some fields can be missing, and a job may close after you find it.
I already have a LinkedIn URL. Should I use search?
