What you can do
Search, export, credits — one command away.
cornect leads
Companies where something just happened — hiring, funding, news, partnerships — newest first, one row per company, by industry, size and country if you like. `cornect leads company acme.com` lists everything recent at one company. Free.
cornect monitors
Watch companies for new signals every morning, delivered by email or webhook. create, add, remove, pause, resume, delete, and see each run check by check. `create` tells you the daily credit cost before it sends.
cornect signals
Everything your monitors delivered — filter by kind, company, monitor or date, count it, or export it as CSV. Free.
cornect search
Search the company database with filters — query, country, industry, exclude lists, tech, size. Table, --json, or --csv output.
cornect count
The EXACT number of companies matching a filter set — no 10,000 ceiling, and it costs no credits. Size a filter before you export it.
cornect company get
Fetch a single company's full detail by id — profile, location, tech stack, funding.
cornect export preview
See exactly what an export will cost BEFORE creating it — new companies, credits, and how many rows a short balance would drop. Free.
cornect export
Create export jobs, poll their status, and download the CSV — straight to a file.
cornect credits
Check your workspace credit balance and recent transactions before bulk operations.
cornect login
Authenticate once — your token is stored securely (chmod 600), or set CORNECT_API_TOKEN for CI. `cornect logout` removes the stored token.
--json / --csv
Every command speaks JSON and CSV for pipelines — pipe to jq, redirect to a file, wire into scripts.
Install
Up and running in a minute.
01
Get an API token
Create a token at Account → API tokens. Choose read for search and lookup, or read_write if you'll create exports.
ℹNeeds Node 18 or later. Already installed? Update with the same command; cornect --version should say 0.8.0 or later for leads, signals and monitors, and 0.8.2 or later for every Find leads filter. The source is in the repo: cli README.
03
Authenticate
Log in once — your token is stored securely. For CI/scripts, set CORNECT_API_TOKEN instead.
Every command prints a clean table by default, and switches to --json or --csv for pipelines. Colors turn off automatically when output is piped, so redirected data stays clean. Set CORNECT_API_TOKEN and it runs unattended in CI.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is it free?
Yes — the CLI is free. You spend Cornect credits only when creating exports, and through the daily runs of your monitors (1 credit per company and signal type per run). Finding leads, reading signals, search, company lookup, credit checks, and export status/downloads don't charge.
Which token scope do I need?
A read token covers leads, signals, monitors (read), search, company lookup, and credits. Use a read_write token to create exports or to create and change monitors — and changing monitors also needs you to be an owner or admin of the workspace.
How do I filter by country?
Use full country NAMES, not ISO codes — "Germany", "United States", "United Kingdom" (not "DE"/"US"). ISO codes match nothing. The same applies to industries. To target a city, also pass --country (city names repeat across countries).
Where's the source / help?
The CLI is on npm as @cornect/cli — install it with npm install -g @cornect/cli. The source lives in the Cornect repo under cli/. Questions: support@cornect.io.
