A site the store does not cover goes through a Custom Dataset (CDS) request | LinkedIn company page URLs, up to 5,000 in one call | A search, or a lookup by a known domain, name or profile URL |
| What a row carries | The fields you name, read from the company's own site and the other pages that state them, joined into one record. Source URL and read time on every value | 36 data fields: ID, name, country code, locations, followers, employees on LinkedIn, about, specialties and more | The fields of the company page as it reads at the time of the call | One company profile matched across sources: firmographics, workforce, funding, technologies and growth signals |
| The unit you pay for | A delivered row: 5¢ for up to 5 facts, 15¢ for up to 15, $1 beyond. Only rows that meet every condition are billed | A record, at up to $0.0025, in tiers of 100K, 500K, 1M, 5M and 20M records | A successful record: $1.50 per 1,000 pay as you go, or $499 a month with 384,000 records included | Credits: 20 for a full company record, 10 for a core record |

Updates daily, weekly, monthly or on a custom schedule, with Smart data updates that send only New Records or Updated Records. A monthly subscription saves 80% | Each call reads the pages again, billed per successful record | Update timestamps, headcount history, funding events and change signals on each record |
| Records that stop matching | A row that fails a condition is left out and not billed | On a fresh collection, records that no longer meet your filters are removed, and the initial scrape is still charged | No charge for failed deliveries | Credits are deducted for each successful request, by the feature, field or action used |
| Where the data goes | Google Sheets, Excel, Airtable, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Attio, Slack, Teams, Zapier, Make, n8n, signed webhooks, the API and MCP | JSON, NDJSON, JSON Lines, CSV or Parquet files, delivered to Snowflake, Amazon S3, Google Cloud, Azure or SFTP.

Why company data buyers choose SpecStream
The companies you sell to, not a 100K record file
Bright Data's first tier for its LinkedIn company dataset is 100K records for $250, and a subset is cut from the store by industry, region and other parameters. Most teams that buy company data want a few hundred accounts with a trait no filter lists. On SpecStream you write that as the request, for example "software companies in Germany with 50 to 500 employees, with the company name, website, headquarters city, employee count and the product they sell". SpecStream reads it back as conditions you can edit, finds every match on the live web and returns one row per company. A company that fails a condition is left out and not billed.
A custom dataset in one request
When the store does not hold what you need, Bright Data sends you to a Custom Dataset (CDS) request, and its datasets page starts at up to $0.0025 a record with a $250 minimum order. Its Dataset Filter API has no $250 minimum and charges for the records that match. On SpecStream the custom dataset is the request itself: you name the conditions and the facts, see the most the run can cost before it starts, and pay 5¢ a row for up to 5 facts, 15¢ for up to 15 and $1 beyond. 500 companies with up to 5 facts each cost $25.
New and changed companies, as often as every hour
Bright Data refreshes the LinkedIn company dataset monthly, delivers it daily, weekly, monthly or on a custom schedule, and its Smart data updates send only New Records or Updated Records. A saved SpecStream request reruns hourly to yearly. Each row comes back labeled changed, unchanged or no longer matching, so a company that drops out of your conditions shows as no longer matching rather than staying in your file. A changed or new row costs half its rate (3¢, 8¢ or 50¢), and an unchanged row costs 1¢. Read how schedules work.
Facts past the company page
A LinkedIn company record holds what the page shows: name, locations, followers, employees on LinkedIn, about and specialties. A SpecStream row can carry any fact you name, such as the product a company sells, the tools it runs or the roles it hires for, read from its own site and the other pages that state it and joined into one record. Each value has the URL of the page it was read on and the time it was read.
In the tool your team uses
Bright Data delivers files to Snowflake, Amazon S3, Google Cloud, Azure or SFTP, and a snapshot can be downloaded for 14 days. SpecStream sends new matches to Slack, Teams, email, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Attio or a signed webhook, and to your agent through the MCP server at https://api.specstream.ai/mcp.
A price before the run
SpecStream quotes the most a run can cost before it starts, and nothing runs until you approve it. Duplicates and rows you already own are not charged, a run that finds nothing costs nothing, and whatever a run does not use goes back to your balance. See every rate on the pricing page.

How to start
Write the companies you need in plain words, in place of the dataset you would order or the company URLs you scrape. Sign up and you get $10 of credit, no card. At 5¢ a row, that is up to 200 companies.
Or send the request from code. This call spends nothing: the 402 reply shows how SpecStream read the request, the columns and the most it can cost.
curl -i https://api.specstream.ai/v1/agent/lists \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"request": "Software companies in Germany with 50 to 500 employees, with the company name, website, headquarters city, employee count and the product they sell", "count": 25}'Approve that maximum by card through Stripe's Link agent wallet, or in USDC on Base, Arbitrum or Polygon, and you pay for the rows found. On an account, your agent uses the MCP server at https://api.specstream.ai/mcp and your team uses the workspace, from the same balance. Save the request to rerun it on a schedule.
