Get recent news mentioning a company.

Job id `company.news`, in [Enrichment](/catalog/enrichment) (Company data). As of 2026-10-01, 4 providers serve it through 4 tools. Run `job:company.news` and looot picks one of them; with `fallback` on, a miss moves on to the next. See [Jobs](/concepts/jobs).

## Inputs

A job run takes shared input names; looot maps them to each provider's own fields. See [Job inputs](/concepts/job-inputs).

| Input | Taken by |
| --- | --- |
| `limit` | 4 of 4 providers |
| `company` | 1 of 4 providers |
| `domain` | 1 of 4 providers |
| `name` | 1 of 4 providers |
| `query` | 1 of 4 providers |
| `ticker` | 1 of 4 providers |

Any other key you send passes through unchanged. Each tool's own fields are on its page below.

## Providers and prices

| Provider | Tool | Price |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [EODHD](/providers/eodhd) | [`eodhd-news`](/reference/tools/eodhd-news) | $0.000033 per call |
| [Context.dev](/providers/context-dev) | [`context-dev-news-search`](/reference/tools/context-dev-news-search) | $0.00025 per result |
| [Akta](/providers/akta) | [`akta-news`](/reference/tools/akta-news) | $0.0005 per result |
| [PredictLeads](/providers/predictleads) | [`predictleads-companies-news-events`](/reference/tools/predictleads-companies-news-events) | $0.01 per call |

A call that fails at the provider costs $0. See [What's free](/money/free-and-failures).

## Output

Each provider answers in its own shape. Shape of the run's `result` from [`context-dev-news-search`](/reference/tools/context-dev-news-search), checked against 1 real answer:

```txt
{ data: { id, url, type, match: { level, confidence }, title, source: { name, direct, domain }, authors: string[], language, story_id, image_url, description, published_at }[], meta: { count }, has_more, request_id, next_cursor, key_metadata: { credits_consumed, credits_remaining } }
```

## Run it

Every call needs your API token in `LOOOT_TOKEN`; [Sign in](/get-started/sign-in#use-the-token-in-scripts-and-agents) shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With `wait: 30` the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll `GET /v1/runs/<runId>`.

Example input with placeholder values:

<CodeGroup>

```bash curl
curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"job:company.news","input":{"company":"Example Inc"},"wait":30}'
```

```js JavaScript
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "job:company.news",
    input: {
      company: "Example Inc",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
```

```python Python
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "job:company.news",
        "input": {
            "company": "Example Inc",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))
```

To pin one provider, send its tool id as `endpointId` instead of `job:company.news`.
