Search

Intent tells you who’s looking right now. Search tells you who fits. A search lane is the companies and people you want, with their contact details and no intent signal. It uses the same filters as an intent lane (industry, company size, seniority, job titles, your target accounts and about 50 more fields), plus what each person must have: a mobile, a business email, or mobiles that aren’t on the do-not-call list. Use it for full market lists, and to reach people who aren’t researching anything right now or barely use LinkedIn: practice owners, clinic managers, trades, real estate.

	Intent lane (`L1`)	Search lane (`S1`)
Who	People researching your keywords right now	Everyone who matches your filters
Sizing	Checked daily, free	Free estimate when you ask
Price	Intent prices, once per person per month	Search prices, once per person, ever

1. Create one

In the dashboard, press New lane on Lanes and pick Search; Build a list with Search walks through it. On the lane’s page, the Everyone must have switches save and recount as you flip them, and Recount asks for a new free estimate.

A search lane for US medical practice owners: 2,184 match right now — A search lane: its filters, must-haves, radius and the free estimate.

With the API:

curl -s -X POST "https://intentleads.si/api/v1/lanes" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INTENT_LEADS_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "kind": "search",
    "name": "Medical practice owners",
    "us_only": true,
    "employees": {"min": 5, "max": 200},
    "industries": ["medical practices"],
    "seniority": ["cxo"],
    "titles_include": ["owner", "founder", "partner"],
    "contact": {"mobile": true, "email": false, "no_dnc": false}
  }'

Search lanes get codes S1, S2 and so on (older ones are C1, C2). They have no keywords, audience or topics to leave out. Every other filter works as it does on intent lanes, including more filters and your target accounts. "kind": "contacts" still works as another name for "search".

Filters

The dashboard’s search form shows each filter on its own row, in five groups. Most of them are stored as the lane’s conditions, so the API, CLI and MCP see exactly what the form shows.

Group	Filters	Over the API
Each person must have	A mobile, a mobile not on do-not-call lists, a business email, one checked as valid, a personal email, a direct phone, a LinkedIn profile	`contact` (`mobile`, `no_dnc`, `email`), and `work_email_status`, `has_personal_email`, `has_direct_phone`, `has_linkedin` in `conditions`
Job and career	Job titles (in and out), seniority (owners and partners apart from the C-suite), department, years of experience, past job titles, past employers, schools, headline	`titles_include`, `titles_exclude`, and `seniority_detail`, `department_detail`, `years_experience`, `past_titles`, `past_companies`, `education`, `headline`
Location	A radius around a ZIP code or city, state, city and ZIP code where the person lives	`near`, `person_state`, `person_city`, `person_zip`
Personal and household	Age, gender, household income, net worth, homeowner, married, children at home	`age_range`, `gender`, `household_income`, `net_worth`, `homeowner`, `married`, `children`
Company	Industry (in and out), keywords in the company’s description (in and out), NAICS and SIC codes, staff count or size bands, revenue, company name (in and out), HQ state, city and ZIP code, US HQ only	`industries`, `industries_exclude`, `employees`, `us_only`, and `company_description`, `naics`, `sic`, `employee_range`, `revenue_range`, `company_name`, `company_state`, `company_city`, `company_zip`

Anything else, like OR groups or other fields, goes under Advanced: AND / OR groups at the bottom of the form. For example, dental practice owners and partners within 50 miles of Houston with 10 or more years of experience, at practices whose description mentions implants, leaving out group practices:

curl -s -X POST "https://intentleads.si/api/v1/lanes" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INTENT_LEADS_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "kind": "search",
    "name": "Houston dental owners",
    "employees": {"min": 1, "max": 50},
    "titles_include": ["owner", "dentist", "dds"],
    "titles_exclude": ["associate", "hygienist"],
    "contact": {"mobile": true, "no_dnc": true},
    "conditions": {"all": [
      {"field": "seniority_detail", "op": "any_of", "value": ["owner", "partner"]},
      {"field": "years_experience", "op": "at_least", "value": 10},
      {"field": "near", "op": "within", "value": {"place": "Houston, TX", "miles": 50, "from": "company"}},
      {"field": "naics", "op": "starts_with", "value": ["621210"]},
      {"field": "company_description", "op": "contains", "value": ["implants"]},
      {"field": "company_name", "op": "not_contains", "value": ["group", "holdings"]}
    ]}
  }'

2. Get a free estimate

curl -s -X POST "https://intentleads.si/api/v1/lanes/S1/estimate" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INTENT_LEADS_KEY"

It counts everyone who matches now, leaving out people you’ve already bought, your exclusions and removals. It takes about 50 minutes: call GET /api/v1/lanes/S1/estimate until status is done (we also email you). You get people and up to 10 real people as a sample (name, job title, company, size, industry and location, and whether an email, phone and LinkedIn are on file; no contact details). Your first 5,000 people are prepared at the same time, for free, so an export right after the count arrives in about a minute. Creating a search or changing its filters starts both straight away. The same filters within 24 hours return the same estimate. Change the filters and ask again for a fresh count. From the CLI: intentleads estimate S1 --wait.

3. Export

Exports work the same as for intent lanes: quote first (free), then export.

curl -s -X POST "https://intentleads.si/api/v1/exports" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INTENT_LEADS_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"lanes": ["S1"], "max": 1000, "dry_run": false, "idempotency_key": "s1-2026-11-12"}'

Paid from your balance at search prices, per person delivered. The quote shows the cost and your balance after.
Each person is charged once, ever. Anyone you’ve already bought from any search lane is left out before we pay.
Export search lanes and intent lanes separately: one export can’t mix them.
The leads arrive like any other: GET /api/v1/leads, with lane set to the search lane and the intent fields empty.
