To ensure your searches only return people from your company list, you can use the "Companies" section in the Find People feature. Here's how: 1. Go to "Add Table" and select "Find People". 2. In the "Companies" section, choose one of these options: • Select a Clay Table containing your company list • Upload a Comma-Separated List of company names This will focus your search on the specific companies you're interested in. Additionally, you can use the "Exclude" section to filter out unwanted results: 1. Select an existing table as an exclusion source 2. Choose matching criteria like social URL or domain This will help remove any companies or people you don't want in your search results. If you need further assistance, please request human help by clicking on "Talk to a person".

Check your input data – Make sure your company names or domains are clean and accurate. Use Company Domain Instead of Name – Some companies have similar names, but domains are unique. Filter the Results – Add a filter to remove results that don’t match your company list. Try "Find People at These Companies" Again – Ensure you're selecting the correct column that contains your company list. Test with a Few Companies First – If it still pulls in unrelated results, there might be an issue with how Clay is matching the data.
