There are several ways to add companies to your Orbis workspace.

​
Auto-created from contacts

When you add or import a contact with a company name or domain, Orbis creates a company record automatically if one doesn’t already exist. The contact is then linked to that company.

​
Added manually

To add a company without an associated contact, click Add Company in the companies list. Enter the company name and domain, then save. Enrichment runs automatically once the domain is known.
Adding a domain is the most important step — Orbis uses the domain to fetch the logo, match the company against enrichment databases, and deduplicate against existing records.

​
Company directory

When adding a company manually, Orbis searches a directory of 3.37M+ reference companies for autocomplete suggestions. This helps you find and add companies with pre-populated data, and avoids creating duplicates.

​
CSV import

You can import companies in bulk via CSV:
1

Open the import modal

Click Import in the companies list toolbar, or use the Data Wizard from Deep Search.
2

Upload your CSV

Drag and drop or select a CSV file (up to 2,000 rows). Orbis shows a 5-row preview.
3

Map columns

Orbis auto-maps common headers (e.g., “headcount” maps to employee count). Review and adjust mappings. Unmapped columns can be imported as custom properties with auto-type inference.
4

Import

Click Import. Orbis normalizes domains (strips protocol, www, and paths), validates format, and skips duplicates. A tag is auto-created from the filename.
After import, a saved filter view is automatically created so you can quickly find your imported companies.

​
Supported fields

The column mapping UI organizes fields into groups:

Core identity

Name, domain, industry, sector, type, description

Size and financials

Employee count, revenue range, funding stage, total funding

Location

City, region, country, full address

Social and links

LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, GitHub, website

​
Validation

  • Domain is required — rows without a domain are skipped
  • Domain format is checked and normalized
  • Duplicate detection by domain — existing companies are skipped
  • Rate limited: 2,000 rows per file, 5,000 per 15 minutes, 20,000 per day

​
Import summary

After import completes, a summary shows how many companies were added, skipped (duplicates), and failed. Failed rows can be exported as a CSV for review.
