RouterGrowth returns matching profiles as JSON with name, headline, current title, company, domain, location and LinkedIn URL.

Step by step

How do you do it?

  1. Get a key

    One RouterGrowth key works from the REST API, the CLI and the MCP server.

  2. Set the filters

    Use titles, seniority, company_headcount, locations, industries, companies or company_domains. company_domains is the precise way to name an employer.

  3. Read the profiles

    Each row carries the name, headline, current title and company, company domain, location and LinkedIn URL.

  4. Add emails if needed

    Rows come without emails; pass the ones you will contact to contact.find.

Price

What does it cost?

List prices on this call, read from the catalog when this page was built. The exact figure is quoted before every run, and a monthly plan lowers it.

In practice

What do you ask it?

You describe the job; the agent picks the calls, shows the price and runs them.

Find 50 heads of growth at 51 to 200 person SaaS companies in Germany.

List the sales leaders at these ten domains, then find a work email for each.

Search VPs of Marketing in fintech, then enrich each employer with headcount and HQ.

Worth knowing

What should you know first?

Not LinkedIn's search

RouterGrowth is independent of LinkedIn and does not use a Sales Navigator seat. Results come from a lead database first, with other routes behind it.

No emails in the rows

The search returns profiles, not contact details. Work emails are a separate contact.find call.

Structured filters beat free text

Titles, domains and locations return tighter lists than a free-text query.

FAQ

Questions about linkedin search api

Is this the LinkedIn search API?

No. It is an independent people search with LinkedIn URLs in the rows; LinkedIn is not involved in the call.

How many people can one call return?

Up to 200 per call; set limit to the number you will use.

Does it return emails?

Not on the default route. Use contact.find on the rows you keep, or the pinned route described in inspect for a known company.

Can I search inside one company?

Yes. Pass its domain in company_domains, with titles or seniority to narrow it.
