Here’s what our trade registry data reveals

We don’t just detect new companies. We trace the
founders, connect digital footprints, and only surface the relevant ones.

Contextual signal

See beyond the paperwork

We highlight anomalies - like stealth-mode behavior or non-obvious founder activity that very likely precedes new startup formations.

Role changes

Any questions?

How quickly do you surface new incorporations?

We feature companies the moment they appear in the local trade registries, in some cases companies are back-filled, in this case they are captured the moment the backfilled and updated company is included in their database.

Can I filter specific regions or industries?

You can create searches and filters in exactly the same manner for companies identified through trade registrations as for every other source, including industry, founder tags, etc.

How is this different from standard commercial registry feeds?

We screen out all companies that are unlikely to be relevant for you as a VC investor, at a ratio of more than 50:1, to reduce the noise in your feed and ensure you only see potentially relevant companies, while connecting registrations to a people data source.

Can I integrate this into my existing workflows?

All identified companies and founders are available in a similar format to other sources, this includes ability to add directly to your CRM, featured in our API, etc.

How do you identify the company founders?

We link people to companies using multiple public signals and strict matching rules, including but not limited to industry overlap, public social media activity, and professional history.

What are the benefits of identifying companies from trade registries?

Incorporating a company is often the very first step a founder takes before publicly announcing that they have created a company, enabling you to get the earliest possible tangible signal that a founder is ready to raise capital.
