What you see
| Filter | What you give it |
|---|---|

| Federal state | one or more of the 16 states |
| City | via the suggestion list |
| Postcode | a one- to five-digit prefix, so 10 covers central Berlin and its surroundings |
| Size class | micro (up to 10) · small (10–49) · medium (50–249) · large (250+) |
Searching, filtering and bookmarking cost no Implicents. You can search all day without a meter running.
How you know it worked
The hit count is in a range a human can work through, and among the first results are companies whose names you would not have guessed. Those are exactly the ones a keyword search never finds.
The honest limit
The free plan shows the first page of 20 results; Plus pages through up to 1,000. Not “all” — the 1,000 ceiling applies to both plans, and anyone who needs more goes through a list and the export rather than the pager. The hit count itself stays visible either way, so you can see how large your market is.
There is no filter on the incorporation date. “Companies founded in the last 30 days in Bavaria” cannot be built in the search today.
On the free plan all lists together hold 200 distinct companies across 3 lists and three searches can be saved; Plus makes lists, companies and saved searches unlimited.
