Query Patterns: Companies

Use category:company for structured company data (funding, headcount, description).

// By category
web_search_exa { "query": "category:company AI infrastructure startups San Francisco", "numResults": 10 }

// By stage
web_search_exa { "query": "category:company Series B fintech payments", "numResults": 10 }

// Similar to known company
web_search_exa { "query": "category:company companies like Stripe", "numResults": 8 }

For competitive intelligence, layer multiple angles:

web_search_exa { "query": "category:company companies like [target]", "numResults": 10 }
web_search_exa { "query": "category:company [category] software tools", "numResults": 15 }
web_search_exa { "query": "[category] startup launch funding announcement recently", "numResults": 15 }

For funding/investors:

web_search_exa { "query": "[company] funding round raised investors", "numResults": 5 }
web_search_exa { "query": "category:company [company]", "numResults": 5 }
