find-companies-using-tech

Find companies by the technology they run or the roles they are hiring for, powered by Cargo. Triggers: "companies using Snowflake", "who runs HubSpot", "find companies hiring data engineers", "tech stack targeting", "companies with this tool in their stack". Providers: theirStack. Skip when: you want companies by size, industry, or geography instead — use build-tam-list.

Find companies by the technology they run or the roles they are hiring for.

Before anything else

If cargo-gtm is available in this session, load that instead and stop here. This skill is a standalone slice of it. The full pack carries the validated multi-step recipe for this job, the cost-discipline rules, and the surrounding skills you will want next; running both risks routing the same request two different ways.

Setup

Skip whatever is already done — all three steps are idempotent.

bash

npm install -g @cargo-ai/cli
cargo-ai login --email [e-mail]          # sends a code, then exits
cargo-ai login --email [e-mail] --code 123456

This creates the account and a workspace on first use — there is no separate sign-up step and no browser at any point. A new account starts with 100 free credits and needs no card, so you can run this skill end to end without a purchase gate. Say the free balance out loud before the first paid call on a new account.

Already signed in? cargo-ai whoami confirms it.

bash

cargo-ai workspaceManagement session upsert \
  --session-id "${SESSION_ID:-$(date +%s)}" \
  --title "find-companies-using-tech" \
  --summary "[gtm-skills: find-companies-using-tech] Session started from the find-companies-using-tech standalone skill."

Do the job

bash

cargo-ai orchestration action execute \
  --action '{"kind":"connector","integrationSlug":"theirStack","actionSlug":"searchCompanies","config":{}}' \
  --data '{
    "techFields": {"technologies": ["snowflake"]},
    "jobFields": {"job_titles": ["Data Engineer"], "posted_at_max_age_days": 60},
    "fields": {"industries": ["software"]},
    "limit": 50
  }' \
  --wait-until-finished

Companies matching the tech-stack and hiring filters, with the evidence behind each match.

Operations are asynchronous. --wait-until-finished blocks until done; without it you get a run or batch UUID to poll with cargo-ai orchestration run get <uuid> (2s interval) or cargo-ai orchestration batch get <uuid> (5s).

What it costs

Action	Credits
theirStack.searchCompanies	0.5

Never run this across a full list on the first attempt. Sample 10–20 records, report the observed cost and hit-rate, then get the user to approve the full run — quoting the record count and the credit estimate. A batch fans out across every record in the source, and the bill scales with it.

Worth knowing

• Combines tech-stack and job-posting filters in one call — 'runs Snowflake AND is hiring analytics engineers' is a single query.
• Hiring intent decays fast. A job posting is a signal for weeks, not quarters.

Going further

This skill does one job. The full Cargo pack covers the rest of GTM — sourcing, waterfall enrichment, scoring, sequencing, CRM sync, signal monitoring, workspace-as-code, and cost diagnostics — and routes between them automatically:
