# Find the accounts that look like the ones you've already won.

Lookalike discovery maps your true target addressable market against a structural match of the full 287M organization identity graph. Every match is validated against billions of operational signals to confirm operational fit — not just demographic resemblance.

## Why graph-native matching outperforms legacy database filter stacks.

Legacy tools filter on static firmographic attributes: industry code, headcount band, geography. GraphIQ.ai runs matching against a live graph of 287M organization nodes. Each node carries a dynamic signature built from billions of operational signals: hiring velocity, technology events, M&A activity, capability cluster shifts, and corporate family changes.

### Legacy filter stacks — static attributes
- Industry code  
- Headcount band  
- Geography

### GraphIQ.ai — dynamic graph signature
- Hiring velocity  
- Technology events  
- M&A activity  
- Capability cluster shifts  
- Corporate family changes

## The four-step lookalike workflow.

You define the seed — a closed-won account, your best ten customers, or a structured ICP definition. GraphIQ.ai traverses the full 287M organization identity graph to surface entities whose structural fingerprint matches yours.

### 01 Select Anchor Nodes
Pass 3–5 closed-won accounts or ICP-defined target profiles.

### 02 Analyze Multi-Dimensional Footprints
Technology stack, corporate family position, employee velocity, capability cluster, funding trajectory, and recent business events.

### 03 Execute Network Topology Matching
Graph traversal algorithms surface entities with matching structural positions across 287M nodes.

### 04 Deliver Graph-Ranked Feeds
Push directly to CRM, Clay, or sequencing tools via the MCP server or REST API export.

## What operational jobs does this solve?
- ICP refinement  
- Territory planning  
- Account expansion  
- Pipeline building  
- Fit

## Where lookalike discovery fits your GTM.

### Frequently asked questions

**How many seed accounts do I need?**  
Minimum 3 to 5 resolved accounts. Seeds can be submitted as domain lists, CRM exports, or entity IDs.

**Can I run lookalike discovery programmatically via the MCP server?**  
Yes. Call search_organizations with similar=True parameter and pass anchor entity IDs. Supported at Pro and above.

**Does lookalike matching update as new organizations enter the graph?**  
Yes. The identity graph ingests billions of operational signals. New organizations matching your seed fingerprint surface automatically.
