đ Smarter Company Lookalike Search
The core of Ocean.io's search engine, the company lookalike search, just got a major upgrade.
Whatâs new:
A brand-new algorithm makes results more accurate than ever.
Just enter a company, and weâll surface other businesses doing similar things.
Infinite scroll means no more paginationâjust keep exploring seamlessly.
đ§âđź All-New People Lookalike Search
Weâve introduced a powerful new way to find relevant contacts: People Lookalike Search.
How it works:
Enter a personâs profile, and weâll find professionals similar to them.
Results match both by role and by the type of company they work at.
Perfect for finding similar decision-makers in similar companies.
đď¸ Tabbed Browsing for Lead Lists
Efficiency meets multitasking with our new tab-based workflow.
Benefits:
Open multiple searches or lead lists in separate tabs.
Ocean.io now remembers where you left off in each tab. No need to start over.

New functionality includes:
Assign labels and choose custom colors for organization.
Add statuses to leads (e.g. âQualifiedâ âHigh priorityâ) to track your progress before handing them off to a CRM.
đď¸ Filter Customization & Saveable Layouts
Filters have been overhauled to support advanced customization and reuse.
What you can do:
Drag and drop filters to reorder them.
Save custom filter layouts to quickly switch between workflows.

đť Removed or Simplified Features
While weâve made improvements, some features have been removed or changed to optimize performance and usability:
Feature | Status |
Customized Sorting | No longer available |

Keeping your old "saved searches" | Not possible |
We understand that some of these changes might require an adjustment period. If you have feedback or need help adapting to the new system, please reach out to our support team!
đž Migrating Old Saved Lists
Your old saved lists (new name: Leads), consisting of specific companies/contacts that you saved, can be migrated to your new platform! You can choose exactly which lists to migrate, and how you want them to be named.
â Migrating Old Saved Searches
The old saved searches/filters (new name: Tabs), are changing dramatic in look and feel. Therefore, it's unfortunately not possible to take them with you to the new search.
