Improving AI Tools for Accurate LinkedIn Company URLs

Loh Y.

Can the team help recommends a better way to use AI/other tools to find company LinkedIn URL?

Currently, this column here called LinkedIn Company URL (2 credits) is returning a lot of false positives.
The AI is simply searching the company name + linkedin, and return me a positive results.

Is it the way to do with the prompt?

Please check my workbook here.

To improve accuracy when finding company LinkedIn URLs, try these approaches: 1. Use data providers like Apollo.io, Clearbit, or People Data Labs instead of the AI-generated option. 2. When using "Find Contacts at Company" or similar enrichments, provide the company domain alongside the company name for better results. 3. For higher accuracy, use a waterfall approach: first try with the company domain, then enrich the company data to find its LinkedIn URL. This should significantly reduce false positives compared to simple AI search.

Yes, Clay offers waterfall enrichment functionality that can be used to find company LinkedIn URLs. While the sources specifically mention waterfall enrichment for finding personal emails from LinkedIn profiles, the same approach can be applied to company LinkedIn URLs. You'll need to set up the waterfall process yourself by configuring multiple data providers (like Apollo.io, Clearbit, People Data Labs) in sequence to find company LinkedIn URLs. This allows Clay to try different providers if the first one doesn't return results.

To set up waterfall enrichment for finding company LinkedIn URLs: 1. Start with your company list that includes at least company names and domains (these are your "corner pieces"). 2. Click Actions > Enrich Companies to set up your waterfall. 3. Select multiple data providers in sequence: Apollo.io, Clearbit, People Data Labs, or others that offer company LinkedIn URL enrichment. 4. Configure the waterfall to try each provider in order, moving to the next if the previous one doesn't return results. This approach ensures higher accuracy by trying multiple data sources rather than relying on a single provider.

Yes, when setting up waterfall enrichment, you can select "Company LinkedIn URL" as an output field. Multiple data providers offer this data point, including Apollo.io, Clearbit, People Data Labs, Datagma, Dropcontact, Nimbler, Ocean.io, Owler, and ZoomInfo. When configuring your enrichment, make sure you have the "corner pieces" (domain and/or company name) as inputs, then select the providers you want to use in sequence and choose Company LinkedIn URL as one of your desired outputs.
