How we source, verify, and refresh every record.

Most data providers aggregate from other aggregators. We go to the source — official business registries — and build from there. Here's how.

The foundation

We go to the source. Then we verify it.

Registry-first sourcing

We start with the official record — business registries, chambers of commerce, and government databases. Not aggregated from other aggregators.

Multi-source reconciliation

Every entity is cross-referenced across multiple sources. Conflicts are resolved algorithmically, then spot-checked by data specialists.

Continuous refresh

When something changes in an official registry, we capture it. Delta feeds, change detection, and continuous web signals. Every record carries a last-verified timestamp so you know exactly how current it is.

The pipeline

Collect. Reconcile. Normalise.

Step 1

Collect

Ingest raw data from official business registries, government databases, and regulated data providers across 200+ markets.

Step 2

Reconcile

Cross-reference records from multiple sources. Resolve entity conflicts, normalise naming, standardise addresses and codes.

Step 3

Normalise

Apply consistent schema across all jurisdictions. Map to standard codes (NACE, ISIC), verify identifiers, assign confidence scores.

Freshness

If it's in a registry, we have it.

Registry dataContinuousDelta feeds from 1,100+ official sources across 200+ markets — when a registry updates, we capture it

Tax ID validationContinuousOngoing revalidation of 256M+ tax IDs against VIES and national authorities

Corporate structureContinuousOwnership chains, UBOs, and group hierarchies refreshed as filings are published

Web & digital signalsContinuousDomain, social profiles, technology stack, and digital presence indicators

Status monitoringReal-timeDissolved, merged, or newly registered entities flagged as registry updates are detected

Provenance

Every data point traced to its source.

Source attribution

Every data point carries the name of the source it came from — registry, tax authority, licensed provider, or web signal.

Last-verified timestamp

Every record includes the date it was last checked against its authoritative source. No guessing how stale the data is.

Confidence scoring

When multiple sources disagree, we tell you. Match confidence is exposed so your team can set their own threshold.

Audit-ready trail

For compliance and regulatory use cases, every verification step is logged and traceable — from raw source to delivered record.
