At the end of this guide you’ll have a search lane with a free estimate of everyone who fits, a sample to sanity-check it, and a CSV of the people you bought. Search has no keywords: it’s everyone who matches your filters, whether they’re researching anything or not. Use it for full market lists, and for people who rarely research online, like practice owners, clinic managers and trades. The example is owners of medical practices around Houston, with a mobile.
1

Start a search

On Lanes, press New lane and pick Search. Or press ⌘K and choose New search.
The New lane page with Intent, Search and Website cards

Pick Search: a free estimate first, and never charged twice.

Give it a Name, like “US medical practice owners”. Notes at the bottom are optional: a line for your team about who the list is for.
2

Choose what everyone must have

The first section, Each person must have, sets which contact details everyone on the list has. A mobile number is on to start with. You can also require:
  • a mobile not on do-not-call lists,
  • a business email, or one checked as valid,
  • a personal email,
  • a direct phone,
  • a LinkedIn profile.
Nobody without them is counted or exported, so you never pay for someone you can’t reach. Each one you add makes the list smaller, so pick only what your outreach needs.
3

Add filters

The rest of the form has the same filters as an intent lane: Job and career, Location and Company, then Advanced: AND / OR groups. Click a row to open it. For the example:
The Job and career section with job titles entered

Each section is a set of rows. Open one to set it; a green dot means it's in use.

The panel on the right lists your filters in plain words as you go. Target the right people explains when to use which filter.

Create it and get the free estimate

Press Create search. The free estimate starts straight away and takes about 50 minutes; the page shows when it should be ready, and we email you when it is. Your first people are prepared at the same time, so you can export the moment the count lands, or press Export before that and the export starts by itself when they’re ready.
A search lane for US medical practice owners: 2,184 match right now

A search lane: filters on the left, must-haves, the radius and the free estimate on the right.

The dark tile shows how many people match right now, out of 350M+ US contacts. Asking again with the same filters within a day returns the same estimate.
5

Check the sample

Under the estimate, Free sample shows a few people who match: their seniority or department, company, staff count, industry and city, and icons for whether a business email, a phone and LinkedIn are on file. Names, titles and contact details come with the export.If the companies or roles look wrong, change the filters before you buy.
6

Tune it

  • The Everyone must have switches on the lane page (in the screenshot above) cover Mobile, Not on do-not-call lists, Business email, Personal email and LinkedIn. Flip one and it saves at once, then recounts for free.
  • The map shows your radius and how many ZIP codes it covers.
  • Edit filters changes anything else. Recount asks for a new estimate, also free.
7

Export

Under the estimate, type how many people you want. The button shows the price as you type, like Export 1,000 for $50.00. That’s a free quote: press the button to buy.
  • Search results cost 5¢ each for the first 50,000 in a month, then less. See Billing.
  • Each person is charged once, ever. Anyone you’ve already bought from any search lane is left out before you pay.
  • An export of people already prepared takes about a minute (the panel says so before you confirm). Follow it in Leads, then press CSV next to it under Recent exports.
The Leads page with a recent search export of 10 people

Leads: each export and everyone in it, with their contact details.

Search and intent lanes export separately: one export can’t mix them.
