Search and explore over 521 million legal entities across 309 jurisdictions in 200+ countries. Free company registration data, registry numbers, addresses, legal forms, and status information. 10x more free API calls than OpenCorporates and similar data providers.
Your free tier is insanely generous. How do you guys afford to offer that?
@awtistik_dev No catch.
The registry layer (names, IDs, jurisdictions, status across 309 registries) is the part we wanted to be free, so it stays at 5,000 calls/month.
The deeper data like ownership, ESG, and supply chain is what enterprises pay for, and that's powered by our data partner Veridion. That covers the free tier.
We also just think more people building on open company data is good for us too.
As someone who’s spent way too much time cleaning company data, getting consistent registry information across countries is way harder than most people realize.
@producteer_hunter Yeah, you get it. "Does this company exist? What's its ID and status?" sounds simple until you hit 309 registries, each with its own format, language, and update schedule.
Normalizing all that into a single schema is most of the work, which is why we built on Veridion's data rather than scraping it ourselves. Which countries gave you the most trouble?
Really impressive. As an SEO guy, I'm very interested in how much traffic you can achieve
@growth_beaver Thanks Tudor.
There's a lot of surface there. 521M+ entities is a lot of long-tail company pages, and open data tends to earn links better than gated databases.
For now we're focused on developers (docs, the API, the MCP server) more than organic traffic. The SEO side is the slower play. Happy to compare toughts if you've done programmatic SEO at this scale.
oh wow, this is awesome! so much better than getting all the european company data myself!
@nico Thanks! Europe was the exact case that pushed us to build this.
Every country runs its own register (Handelsregister, Companies House, SIRENE, KvK, and so on), and stitching them together yourself is painful.
EU and UK coverage is solid. If there's a specific country you were dealing with, try it and tell us where it falls short. That feedback is really useful right now.
Does the matching handle entity resolution across name variants? e.g. if I search "Siemens" do I get the parent plus subsidiaries, or do I need to query each legal name separately?
Looks polished but I've seen "open company data" projects launch and then quietly paywall everything once they get traction. What stops that here? Genuine question, not trying to be negative.
