EIC is Context.dev’s industry taxonomy, designed to reflect how modern companies actually describe themselves. It uses a simple two-level structure: a top-level industry and a more specific subindustry.

Response shape

EIC data appears on the Brand response under industries.eic as an array of {industry, subindustry} objects. Both fields are required on every entry:
{
  "brand": {
    "industries": {
      "eic": [
        {
          "industry": "Technology",
          "subindustry": "Developer Tools & APIs"
        },
        {
          "industry": "Technology",
          "subindustry": "Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
Each object contains:
  • industry — one of the 24 top-level industries listed below (exact string match).
  • subindustry — one of the subindustries allowed for that industry (exact string match).
A brand can have multiple (industry, subindustry) pairs when more than one applies.

Rules and constraints

  • Both industry and subindustry are returned as exact strings — match them verbatim if you’re using them as keys, enums, or routing rules.
  • Almost every subindustry is tied to a single top-level industry. The one exception is “Advertising, Adtech & Media Buying”, which is valid under both Entertainment and News & Media.
  • This means there are 221 valid (industry, subindustry) pairs, but only 220 distinct subindustry strings.

Enum values
