# Lusha Lookalikes: Finding Similar Contacts and Companies

Lusha Lookalikes identifies contacts and companies that are similar to the ones you've already found valuable — based on job title, company profile, industry, and other attributes. Use Lookalikes to expand into new accounts, find more of what's already working in your pipeline, or discover companies with similar buying signals.

## Where Lookalikes appear in Lusha

Lusha surfaces Lookalike results in three places:

## [1. Dashboard home screen](/user-guide/getting-started/your-lusha-dashboard-a-quick-tour)

Two widgets appear on your **Dashboard** (/dashboard):

- **Similar to your reveals (Contacts)** — contacts similar to the ones you've already revealed in Lusha
- **Similar to your reveals (Companies)** — companies similar to accounts you've worked with


Both widgets update automatically based on your prospecting activity.

## [2. Workspace tables — Add Similar Contacts](/user-guide/managing-and-exporting-data/adding-contacts-to-an-existing-workspace-table)

Inside any saved Workspace table, click **Add contacts → Add similar contacts**. Workspace analyzes your existing rows and suggests new lookalike prospects that match the profile of your current table. Click **Regenerate** for a fresh set.

## 3. [Lookalikes API](/user-guide/lushas-api/lookalike-api)

Developers can query Lookalikes programmatically using the v3 endpoints:

- `v3/lookalike/contacts` — returns contacts similar to a seed contact
- `v3/lookalike/companies` — returns companies similar to a seed company


See the API Hub (/api) → **Lookalikes APIs** and [docs.lusha.com](https://docs.lusha.com) for technical reference.

## What makes a contact or company a "lookalike"

Lusha's model considers factors including job title and seniority, company size and industry, location, technologies used, and recent activity signals. The more reveals you've made in Lusha, the more refined your lookalike results become over time.
