Resolve a messy company name to something a machine can use.
Almost every failed enrichment is a failed company match first. “Acme”, “Acme Inc.”, “ACME Corporation” and a misspelled domain are four inputs that must resolve to one record before anything else can work.
It is also the cheapest step, which is why doing it first saves money on every step after it.
