Company data API. 400+ registries. One integration.
A company data API for search, verification and enrichment. Access 600M+ company records across 200+ countries: company profiles, directors, shareholders, ownership structures and filed financials, every value linked to the original registry source.
What the company data API returns: everything a registry files, plus what we add on top.
Twelve modular datasets behind one company ID - company profile, officers, shareholders and UBOs, group structure, filed financials, credit risk, screening, firmographic enrichment and more. Call only the ones your workflow needs; every field carries the registry it came from and when it was last checked.
Decision-makers with verified business contact details. Emails and phones are found through waterfall contact enrichment - queried across 15 data partners until a verified match is returned.
Onboarding is a snapshot; the registry keeps moving. Subscribe a company or a whole portfolio and receive a webhook the moment a filing changes at source.
Look up any company with whatever you already have.
One endpoint, any identifier. It returns the matching company with a Global Database ID - the key you reuse on every other endpoint.

One key. Your code, your AI assistant, live registry data.
Sign up and your key is issued immediately. It authenticates both the REST API and the MCP server, so the first call from your code and the first question in Claude can happen within the same hour.
MCP server and connectors for Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft, Gemini and IBM.
Every endpoint above is also exposed as a tool through our hosted MCP server. Connect it once and Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot or your own agent can verify a company, walk its ownership chain and pull filed financials - with the registry source attached to every answer.
Built to be shipped inside your product, not just queried.
Most company-data APIs are a thin layer over someone else's dataset, with contracts written to stop you building on them. Ours is the source itself, licensed for what you're actually making.
We collect directly from 400+ government registries ourselves and sync on their publication schedule. No vendor-of-a-vendor data, no stale mirrors.
400+ registries / synced daily

215 documented fields / 200+ countries
Audit-ready by default
Source registry, filing reference and verification timestamp travel with every field - so when compliance asks where a number came from, the answer is already attached.

Company data API - frequently asked questions.
How do I authenticate?
Send your key in the request header as Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY. All requests and responses are JSON over HTTPS.
What does the company search API return?
Ranked candidate companies with legal name, country, registration number and a Global Database ID. The ID is what you pass to every other endpoint.
How fresh is the data?
We sync each registry on its own publication schedule - daily in all major markets. Every field carries the timestamp of its last verification at source, so you can judge freshness per value.
Does the company financials API cover private companies?
Yes, wherever the jurisdiction requires filing. Statements are digitised with OCR and AI and standardised into one taxonomy, with up to 20+ years of history and the original filed document alongside.
How is usage billed?
Per dataset called - a search, a profile, a financials pull each count once. Start free, then choose a monthly plan or volume agreement. Bulk feeds and redistribution are priced separately.
Can I redistribute the data or train models on it?
Yes. Redistribution, white-label and AI-training rights are part of our commercial terms. Tell us what you're building and the licence follows the use case.
Is there a free company data API tier?
Yes. Create an account and your API key is issued instantly, with free calls to test against live registry data. No card and no sales call; upgrade to a monthly plan or a volume agreement when you go to production.
Can I use it for KYB and business verification?
Yes - the KYB endpoints verify legal status, registration number, VAT or EIN, registered address, officers and beneficial owners straight from the source registry, and the screening endpoint checks the company and the people behind it against PEP and sanctions lists.
Is this an alternative to the Companies House API or the OpenCorporates API?
It covers Companies House and 400+ other registries through one schema, and adds what those APIs don't return: standardised financials, shareholders and UBOs, group structures, credit scores and firmographic enrichment. See our side-by-side comparisons with D&B, Moody's Orbis, Sayari and OpenCorporates.
Can I use the API for company data enrichment?
Yes. Pass a website, domain or LinkedIn URL and enrich your CRM or data warehouse with the full company profile, firmographics and verified executive contacts - the same data behind our Salesforce, HubSpot and Dynamics connectors.
Is there an MCP server for AI agents?
Yes - hosted at mcp.globaldatabase.com/mcp, authenticated with the same API key. It exposes the API as tools for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, IBM watsonx and any MCP-compatible agent.
