Platform

The whole workflow, one workspace

From the first search to the exported list, every step lives in KnowFirst - so market research stops being a folder of browser tabs and becomes a repeatable process.

From the first search to the exported list

Searching and browsing are free. Credits are spent only when you unlock contact details or export records.

Search

Find businesses and people, two ways

Search by name or keyword, or build the query yourself with precise filters. Both run over the same database of every Australian and New Zealand business.

  • Keyword search. Business names, brands and keywords, with suggestions as you type.
  • Deep filters. Industry (ANZSIC), location, company size, registration details and more.
  • Saved searches. Store the whole query and re-run it in one click for fresh results.

Profiles

Eighteen views on every business

Open any company and the profile keeps going: registry facts, locations, websites and tech stack, organic and paid search, social media, directories, news, jobs, salaries, reviews, awards, contracts, trademarks - plus key people and the feed of recent changes.

  • Registry-grade facts. ABN, ACN, GST status; NZBN in New Zealand.
  • Key people. Every profile lists its decision makers, one click from their own details.

The feed

Know the moment something changes

The feed is the recent run of changes on a business - news mentions, website updates, company changes and more. Every profile carries it, so your outreach lands when the timing is right.

  • Always current. The database refreshes continuously from public records and published sources.
  • Context, not noise. Events are grouped per business, next to the facts you already know.
Website updated
New products section detected on the site.
Company change
New director registered, or a change in registered address.
Hiring activity
New job postings - expansion you can time a call to.
Lists and exports

From results to pipeline

Turn any search into a list you keep, then export exactly what you need - rows you selected, fields you chose - as a CSV ready for your CRM.

  • Lists that keep. Save sets of businesses and people from your results, keep them current, and revisit or export them any time.
  • Field-level exports. Pick the columns; the dialog prices the export before you confirm.
  • Charged once. Pay on first download - download the same file again for free.

The platform is the API

Everything you can click in the app is available over REST - the same searches, profiles, unlocks and exports. Your API key draws from the same credit balance as the dashboard.
