Preview data mode (deprecated)
Preview data mode returns blurred job and company results without consuming credits. It is deprecated and only available to sales intelligence software that previews data before unlocking it.
Preview mode is deprecated
Preview mode is being retired and will stop working over the API. We are not granting new access to it, with one exception: sales intelligence software that shows a preview of the data to its end users and then unlocks the full record. If that's your product, open a support ticket from inside the app and tell us about your use case.
Our Job Search and Company Search endpoints include a preview mode that return the same data but some fields are blurred.
This mode is useful for sales software building products with TheirStack data. It allows you to show a preview of the data to your end users without consuming credits. It's the same we use in our own app.
How to use preview mode
To use preview mode, you need to set the blur_company_data field to true in the request body.
Over the API, preview mode still works on paid workspaces created before August 11, 2026. It is not available on any other workspace. We only grant new access to sales intelligence products that preview data to their end users before unlocking it. Open a ticket with the details of your use case. Preview mode in the TheirStack app is unaffected.

When doing a company search with preview mode, the response will return all fields but the name, logo, url, domain, long_description, seo_description, linkedin_url, publicly_traded_symbol, apollo_id, linkedin_id fields will be blurred.
Job search preview
