New LLC & Entity Search — Secretary of State · $0.002/entity

New LLC and business entity search from Secretary of State open data (CO, CT, NY): list new formations by date or look up a company by name. Legal name, type, status, formation date and city in one schema. Failed runs pay only the start fee. Not affiliated with any state.

Official open data, one schema. Company level only: no registered agents, owners, officers, e-mail addresses or street addresses; trade names and sole proprietorships are excluded.

FAQ

Is a result guaranteed to be complete? Each result carries the date it was read. If the upstream service is down the run fails with a clear message and no per-result charge is made.

Can I call it from code or an AI agent? Yes: run it through the Apify API, schedule it, or use it from MCP clients that support Apify Actors.

Is this affiliated with the data source? No. Source names are used descriptively; each result keeps its source attribution and licence line.

Where do I report a problem? Open an issue on this Actor's page; replies are written by the Ambolt service team, usually within a day.
