USE CASE:

Enterprise companies and platform detection

Read this if you need platform detection for enterprise companies and you would rather see the real options than a pitch. The tools we name are Mamba Labs Apify actors, priced per row, and Ecommerce Platform Profiler is the one pointed at enterprise companies.

The situation

Enterprise companies skew platform detection, for a reason specific to them. Enterprise companies have more buyers than any single seller can map, and the map changes every reorganization, which shapes platform detection. Worth knowing about enterprise companies, since platform detection inherits it: one domain can hide forty operating units, and treating the parent as the account loses the deal. We keep 1 preconfigured task for platform detection on enterprise companies, across 1 tool.

Traditional Search Tools

  • The annual report, for enterprise companies. Free, tedious, and it names the operating segments nobody else has bothered to read.
  • Wappalyzer. A browser extension that answers this instantly and free for occasional use. It has an API and a list price when you want it in bulk.
  • BuiltWith. Deeper history and lists of sites by technology, which is the reverse lookup and often the more useful direction. Priced as a data product.
  • Store directories. The app stores of the major platforms publish merchant lists. A ready made list of confirmed users, for free.
  • View source. Open the site, view source, search for the platform's signature. Thirty seconds if you know the signatures, and they are all documented publicly.
