}About the clutch.co API
The Clutch.co API exposes 6 endpoints covering B2B service provider data from one of the largest IT and marketing agency review platforms. Starting with list_categories to enumerate service verticals and search_companies to paginate firms within a category, you can pull structured company profiles, paginated client reviews, portfolio case studies, and office locations — all as clean JSON with no HTML parsing required on your end.
Company Discovery and Search
Use list_categories to retrieve the full set of category slugs available on Clutch.co — fields include name (display label) and slug (the value you pass to search_companies). The search_companies endpoint accepts a category slug (e.g., web-developers, seo-firms, developers/artificial-i) and a 0-based page integer, returning an array of company summaries with name, slug, profile_url, rating, review_count, and a verified flag. Use the slug values from results as the primary key for all other endpoints.
Company Profiles and Service Lines
get_company_profile returns deep firmographic data for a single company by slug. The details object includes structured fields like min_project_size, hourly_rate, employees, year_founded, languages, and timezones. The service_lines array breaks down each service category the firm works in alongside the percentage of their work attributed to it. Profile-level rating, tagline, website_url, and review_count are also returned.
Reviews, Portfolio, and Locations
get_company_reviews paginates client reviews for any company slug. Each review object includes title, rating, reviewer, date, and a project_info sub-object with services, project_size, and project_length. The has_more boolean tells you whether additional pages exist. get_company_portfolio returns case study titles and associated service lines. get_company_locations returns structured office addresses with street, city, state, country, postal_code, phone, and per-location employees counts.

Does Clutch.co have an official developer API?+
What does `get_company_reviews` return and how is pagination handled?+
title, rating, reviewer, date, and a project_info object with services, project_size, and project_length. The has_more boolean indicates whether additional pages exist. Pagination is 0-based via the page parameter.Does `search_companies` support filtering by rating, hourly rate, or employee count?+
category slug and page only. Filtering by rating, hourly rate, or employee size is not currently supported. You can retrieve those fields from get_company_profile and apply filters client-side, or fork this API on Parse and revise it to add server-side filter parameters.Are individual reviewer details like company name or job title exposed in reviews?+
reviewer field is returned on each review object, but structured sub-fields such as reviewer job title, company name, or industry are not currently broken out as discrete fields. The API covers title, rating, date, and project metadata. You can fork it on Parse and revise to add finer reviewer attribute parsing.Does the `list_categories` endpoint return all Clutch.co categories or a subset?+
category values for search_companies if you already know their slug. The endpoint does not enumerate every possible subcategory on the platform.
