Key Announcements

Office Insights (Beta)

Understanding the locations of non-HQ offices unlocks the generation of insights into remote hiring, office expansion, and other important business details. Key Highlights

We’ve expanded our company dataset to include the new “Locations” field with all known offices for over 60 million companies (currently, our “location” field only presents a single HQ location).
We’ve added a new “Count of Locations” field to enable you to easily search or filter companies by this new information.
In the same way that our Headcount Insights and Job Posting Insights provide aggregate summaries of underlying data, we plan to expand these Office Insights out with additional attributes in the coming months.

Availability These fields will be available as beta fields that require a premium add-on bundle for Enterprise customers only. Reach out to your Customer Success Manager if you’re interested! Once we’ve launched this into General Availability, access will be expanded as a premium add-on for Pro customers. We’d Love Your Feedback! We’re always looking to improve. If you have thoughts on how these fields are working for you - or ideas for what insights you’d like to see next - please don’t hesitate to share your feedback with us via our Roadmap Feature Request Board!

Breaking Changes (Going Live This Month)

Removal of Legacy Employer Insights Fields (Company)

Change expected in: v31.0 / July 2025 Products Impacted: Company Company Fields Impacted

As of April 2025 (v30.0), we are deprecating two fields in our Company Schema. These fields have been fully replaced this release by the improved Company Insights fields that were released in April (see v30.0 release notes). Why this change? Over the past few months, we’ve made several improvements based on customer feedback requesting more display-ready and flexible insights fields. One of the key improvements is the inclusion of displayable company names, which makes it much easier to build visualizations like Sankey charts or other talent flow views without needing additional API calls. The result is a simpler implementation experience and reduced API credit usage. To support these updates, we introduced a new set of fields rather than modifying the existing ones in order to provide an overlap period, giving users time to transition smoothly. Migration Plan

July 2025 (v31.0): Legacy fields have been removed.
April - July 2025 (v30.0 - v31.0): Both legacy and new fields are available in the Company Schema to support a smooth transition.
April 2025 (v30.0): New fields are available.

Action Required If you are still using the top_next_employers_by_role or top_previous_employers_by_role fields, you’ll need to update your systems to use the new fields listed below ASAP:

Deprecated Fields (Removed in v31.0)	Replacement Fields (Released in v30.0)
`top_next_employers_by_role`	`top_next_employers`
`top_previous_employers_by_role`	`top_previous_employers`

The new fields capture all the value of the legacy versions - with the added benefit of being easier to use in visual tools and product interfaces. If you have any questions or need help with the transition, please reach out to your Customer Account Team - we’re here to support you.

Commentary

Quarterly Highlights (v30.0 → v31.0)

We made significant improvements to our canonicalization and cleaning of schools, including name standardization and search improvements. Several of the school related fields have improved fill rates in this build as a result.

Monthly Highlights (v30.2 → v31.0)

We expanded the list of international stock exchanges for which we allow stock information, which resulted in an increase in our overall coverage of stock ticker and MIC exchange codes in our company data.
We updated postal codes to exclude bad characters (unicode, emojis) and removed issues for US postal codes that did not follow the US postal code format.

Improvements and Bug Fixes

Improvements

Company Summary Length
- We increased the maximum company summary length to 2,000 characters (up from 1,000 characters previously).
Company and Person Summary Length Increases
- We’ve expanded the maximum character length of the summary field in our Company and Person datasets.
Locations
- We made several improvements to locations that were previously getting dropped because they didn’t have a region or locality. We also made improvements to locations that included names of other locations that were causing location mapping issues (i.e. California, Maryland or Tai Wan, Hong Kong).

Bug Fixes

American Sign Language
- We identified an issue where we were dropping languages that included the word “Language” in them, which resulted in excluding American Sign Language. ASL is now included.
