Overview
The Piloterr node for n8n, when configured with the "Enrichment" resource and "Company" operation, allows users to look up detailed company information using a company's domain name. This is particularly useful for enriching CRM records, automating lead research, or validating business data by fetching up-to-date company profiles from the Piloterr API.
Practical examples:
- Automatically enrich incoming leads in your CRM with company details based on their email domains.
- Validate and supplement company data in marketing automation workflows.
- Build prospecting lists with verified company information for sales outreach.
