# Browse buyer intent

Returns the companies researching your products on G2 and what they looked at, such as profiles, pricing or comparisons, across one or more of your products.

Scope the query with `subject_product_ids`, or leave it out to use your
assigned products. Group rows with `dimensions` such as `company_name`,
`company_domain`, `signal_type` or `day`, count with `measures` such as
`total_activity` and `visitor_count`, and filter with `dimension_filters`,
for example `dimension_filters[company_name_cont]=Acme`. A page holds up to
250 rows. Needs the `buyer_intent.read` scope and a G2 Buyer Intent license.
