Company Technographic

Get the current installed technology stack for a company. Returns products with productId (numeric), vendor, usage intensity (higher = stronger signal), product locations count, and first/last verified dates.

Use this when: user asks "what technology does [company] use?", "does [company] use Salesforce/AWS?", "what's [company]'s tech stack?", or needs a current-install snapshot.

Do NOT use this when:

User wants usage trends over time → use company_install_time_series
User wants which department/team uses a product → use company_fai
User wants spend estimates → use company_spend

BEFORE filtering — resolve IDs first:

By vendor/product: call get_vendor_information(vendorName: '<name>') to get vendorId, then pass here. Skipping causes misses (Snowflake is under vendor 'Snowflake Inc.', not just the string 'Snowflake').
By category: call get_product_category(categoryName: '<name>') to get the exact category_name, then pass here. Categories use case-insensitive SUBSTRING matching — "CRM" matches both "Customer Relationship Management Applications" and "Customer Relationship Management (CRM) BPO". Empty results on a category filter do NOT include a warning field; inspect the response's categories[] array to confirm which categories matched.
For full unfiltered stack: call directly with no filters.

productId values in results can be passed directly to company_fai or company_install_time_series for deeper analysis. Default limit: 50; max: 500 (use filters instead of high maxResults). Sort by intensity (default) or date (most recently verified first). Empty results mean no data found — do NOT say the tool lacks functionality. Provide companyDomain (e.g., "cisco.com") or hg_id; hg_id takes precedence when both provided.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default	Description
`companyDomain`	string	-	The company domain to lookup (e.g., 'example.com'). Either companyDomain or hg_id is required. Protocol prefixes (http://, https://), leading www., and trailing paths/queries/fragments are accepted and stripped automatically; case is normalized.
`hg_id`	string	-	HG Insights company ID (32 alphanumeric characters). When provided, this overrides companyDomain. Obtain from a previous company_search result.
`categories`	array	`[]`	Filter by technology category names (case-insensitive SUBSTRING match on category_name, not fuzzy). Call get_product_category first to find the exact category_name to pass here. Leave empty for all categories. WARNING: broad category filters can include peripheral products (upstream data-quality issue) — prefer vendorIds/productIds for precision when checking specific vendors.
`productIds`	array	-	Filter by exact HG Insights product IDs (passed directly to API). Get IDs from get_vendor_information or from previous company_technographic results' productId field.
`vendorIds`	array	-	Filter by exact HG Insights vendor IDs (integers). Call `get_vendor_information(vendorName: '<name>')` first to resolve the integer vendor_id, then pass it here. You can also reuse a vendor_id from a previous company_technographic result's `vendorId` field.
`sort`	string	`intensity`	Sort results by usage intensity (high to low) or last verified date (most recent first).
`maxResults`	number	`50`	Maximum number of results to return (1-500, default 50). Use 'categories', 'productIds', or 'vendorIds' to filter for focused results instead of requesting large result sets.
`provider`	string	`auto`	Data provider to use. Use 'auto' for automatic selection or specify provider name.

Use Cases

What technologies does a company use? — full unfiltered call by domain
Does a company use a specific vendor's products? — vendorIds filter after resolving via get_vendor_information
What CRM/category tools does a company have installed? — categories filter after resolving via get_product_category
Is a specific product installed at this company? — productIds direct lookup
Show a company's most recently verified tech installs — sort=date

Example Usage

Full tech stack for Cisco, top 10 by intensity

{
  "tool": "company_technographic",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "cisco.com",
    "maxResults": 10
  }
}

All Salesforce products at Cisco (vendorId resolved via get_vendor_information)

{
  "tool": "company_technographic",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "cisco.com",
    "vendorIds": [
      376
    ]
  }
}

CRM tools at Microsoft (category resolved via get_product_category)

{
  "tool": "company_technographic",
  "arguments": {
    "companyDomain": "microsoft.com",
    "categories": [
      "Customer Relationship Management Applications"
    ],
    "maxResults": 20
  }
}

Response Format

note

Large tech stacks may be truncated to stay within the model's context window. When that happens a _truncation object is present (with the pre-truncation count and guidance) — narrow the call with categories, productIds, or vendorIds, or lower maxResults, to get a complete, targeted set.
intensity is a relative usage signal for ranking a company's own installs, not a percentage, count, or cross-company comparison metric.
