Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Owler to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Owler, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

AI Agent Company Research via Jentic
AI agents can discover and call Owler endpoints through Jentic to automate company research workflows. An agent searching for competitor data receives the matching Owler operation with its input schema, executes the call with Jentic-managed credentials, and returns structured company intelligence without direct API key management.
Search Jentic for 'find competitors of a company', load the Owler competitor endpoint schema, and execute a competitor lookup for company ID 67890

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Owler API keys are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — the raw user_key header value never enters the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'find competitors for a company') and Jentic returns the matching Owler operation with its input schema, so the agent can call /v1/company/competitor/id/{companyId} without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Owler integration: 1-2 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using Owler API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Owler API use?
The Owler API uses an API key passed in the request header as `user_key`. Through Jentic, this key is stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and agents receive scoped access tokens without the raw key entering their context.
Can I find competitors for a company using the Owler API?
Yes. Use the /v1/company/competitor/id/{companyId} or /v1/company/competitor/url/{website} endpoints to retrieve competitor lists. Premium competitor endpoints provide additional competitive intelligence detail including deeper relationship data.
What is the difference between basic and premium company endpoints?
Basic endpoints like /v1/company/id/{companyId} return core firmographic data including name, website, industry, and employee count. Premium endpoints at /v1/companypremium/id/{companyId} return extended data with additional fields such as detailed revenue breakdowns and deeper organizational information.
How do I search for a company when I only have a partial name?
Use the /v1/company/fuzzysearch endpoint which accepts partial company names, addresses, or phone numbers and returns best-match results. For exact matches on ticker symbols, website URLs, or full names, use /v1/company/search instead.
How do I retrieve company news through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'get company news feed', load the returned operation schema for /v1/feed/url, and execute with the target company website. Install with pip install jentic and authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up to get your API key.
