Company Cloud Spend

Map a company's cloud and internet-infrastructure vendor footprint from HG Insights Cloud Dynamics (Intricately). Use this when you need to know WHICH cloud/CDN/hosting/DNS/email vendors a company uses, grouped by service category, plus when each was first detected and the company's geographic web-traffic split (North America / Latin America / Asia Pacific / EMEA percentages). Identify the company by domain (e.g., "cisco.com") or HG Insights company ID (hg_id); if both are given, hg_id wins. Note: despite the "spend" name, the response contains no dollar figures — it lists vendors and adoption dates, not billed amounts. Do NOT use this when you need a company's total product/technology spend in USD — use company_spend instead. Do NOT use this for on-premise or general software installs (CRM, databases, security) — use company_technographic instead. Filter to specific vendors via productList (fuzzy-matched). By default the response is capped at 10 vendors per service category, 50 service categories, and 100 vendors total (~30 KB); raise vendorsPerServiceLimit (max 50) / limit (max 200) for more, or set full=true for the entire payload (may exceed 90 KB on large accounts).

Parameters​

NameTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
companyDomainstring❌ No-Registered/primary web domain of the company to look up cloud vendors for (e.g., "cisco.com"). Either companyDomain or hg_id is required; if both are given, hg_id takes precedence. Protocol prefixes (http://, https://), a leading www., and any trailing path/query/fragment are accepted and stripped automatically; case is normalized to lowercase. Max 253 chars. Must resolve to a company in Intricately's database or the call returns a "Company not found" error.
hg_idstring❌ No-HG Insights company ID: 31-32 alphanumeric characters, obtained from a previous search_companies or company_firmographic result. When provided, it takes precedence over companyDomain and is resolved to a domain internally (this path additionally requires the "hginsights" v1 integration to be configured).
productListarray❌ No[]Optional case-insensitive vendor/product names to narrow the results to (e.g., ["Cloudflare", "Amazon EC2"]). Matched fuzzily against detected vendor names (Fuse.js, threshold 0.6), so approximate names still match; service categories with no matching vendor are dropped. Omit or pass [] to return every detected vendor.
limitinteger❌ No50Maximum number of technologyServices entries to return (default: 50, max: 200). Ignored when full=true.
vendorsPerServiceLimitinteger❌ No10Maximum number of vendors to include per technologyServices entry (default: 10, max: 50). Ignored when full=true. The total vendor count across all services is also capped at 100 to keep responses small; services beyond that cap are dropped.
fieldsarray❌ No-Project each vendor row to this subset of fields. vendorName is always included regardless of this list. Ignored when full=true.
fullboolean❌ NofalseWhen true, return the full payload with no limit, no per-service vendor cap, no total-vendor budget, and no field projection. Default: false (all caps apply). Use full=true only when you genuinely need the unbounded payload — large accounts may exceed 90 KB.

Required Integrations​

Use Cases​

  • Which cloud, CDN, hosting, DNS, and email vendors does a company use? — full call by domain
  • Does a company use a specific cloud vendor (e.g., Cloudflare or AWS)? — productList fuzzy filter
  • When did a company first adopt a given cloud vendor? — read firstSeen per vendor
  • How is a company's web traffic distributed across regions? — read trafficDistribution percentages
  • Compare the cloud/CDN footprint of two companies — one call per domain

Example Usage​

Cisco's full cloud/internet-infrastructure vendor footprint by domain

{
  "tool": "company_cloud_spend",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "cisco.com"
  }
}

Check whether Nike uses Cloudflare or Amazon EC2

{
  "tool": "company_cloud_spend",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "nike.com",
    "productList": [
      "Cloudflare",
      "Amazon EC2"
    ]
  }
}

Compact call for a large account — vendor names only, tighter caps

{
  "tool": "company_cloud_spend",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "microsoft.com",
    "fields": [
      "vendorName"
    ],
    "vendorsPerServiceLimit": 5
