The Forbes Global 2000 is an annual ranking of the top 2000 public companies in the world by Forbes magazine. The ranking is based on a mix of four metrics: sales, profit, assets and market value. Use this gem to look up Forbes 2000 companies based on a domain name or email address and generate reports / say things like...

This is a Ruby gem, so you'll need a little Ruby-fu to get it working.

gem install forbes-finder

Or add this to your Gemfile:

gem 'forbes-finder', '~> 0.1.1'

record = ForbesFinder::lookup 'exxonmobil.com'
# => <ForbesFinder::Record:0x007faa33887310>

record.name
# => "Exxon Mobil"

record.rank
# => 1

It'll handle email addresses and URLs with all sorts of subdomains, parameters, etc.

ForbesFinder::lookup('https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/checklist/').rank
# => 22

ForbesFinder::lookup('www.chevron.com').rank
# => 12

ForbesFinder::lookup('william.gates@microsoft.com').rank
# 42

It'll also work with aliases or subsidiaries, but I'll need your help (see contribution guidelines if you're interested).

ForbesFinder::lookup('ebayinc.com').rank
# => 322
ForbesFinder::lookup('ebayinc.com').alias
# => false

ForbesFinder::lookup('ebay.com').rank
# => 322
ForbesFinder::lookup('ebay.com').alias
# => 322

ForbesFinder::lookup('paypal.com').rank
# => 322
ForbesFinder::lookup('paypal.com').alias
# => true
ForbesFinder::lookup('paypal.com').name
# => eBay
ForbesFinder::lookup('paypal.com').domain
# => ebayinc.com

• There may be cases when the company you're lookup up is a subsidiary of a Forbes 2000 company that has a different domain name e.g. eBay is a Forbes 2000 company identified primarily with ebayinc.com, but has many associated domains / subsidiaries like ebay.com and paypal.com. Using the power of Git, GitHub and TOML you can identify those relationships - please read the contribution guidelines if you'd like to help.
