Action

Find Companies

Tool to search companies in Icypeas database. Use when you need to find companies matching filters like industry, location, or headcount.

Why this helps

Market exploration can become an unfinished task when criteria are scattered across a conversation instead of a repeatable search.

  • Carry market criteria into a search sooner.
  • Give teammates a shortlist to discuss in context.
  • Reduce setup effort for recurring account research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Icypeas to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation through Automations, or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
  • 3Write a single plain-language instruction for Notis to find companies matching the industry, location, or headcount criteria stated in Slack and return a concise shortlist.
  • 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real market brief that contains at least one useful search criterion.
