Discover Companies
discover_companiesFull Description
Search for companies in the Daloopa database using ticker symbols or company names.
This tool searches the Daloopa database for companies matching the provided keyword, which can be either a ticker symbol or company name. The search results include for each keyword, the ticker, full company name, and company ID needed for subsequent data retrieval.
Search Strategy: 1. PRIMARY: Ticker Symbol Search
- For ticker search: Use the exact ticker symbol (e.g., "AAPL", "MSFT")
2. SECONDARY: Company Name Search (only if ticker fails)
- IMPORTANT: Omit legal entity designations (Inc., Ltd., Corp., LLC, GmbH, S.A., etc.)
- Examples: Use "Apple" instead of "Apple Inc.", "Microsoft" instead of "Microsoft Corporation"
3. FALLBACK: Alternative Name Forms (if standard name fails)
- If initial search returns no results, try alternative forms of the company name
- Try shorter versions of the name if the full name doesn't yield results
- For companies with multiple words, try the most distinctive word
