How much does it cost to use Company Registry Lookup (LEI + SEC)?

FAQ

Does it cover private companies? Only those with an LEI. SEC data is for US-listed filers.

Is this a full business registry? No. State and provincial registries are not included; this combines two open global sources.

How are matches ranked? Exact name matches and active LEIs rank first.

Is it legal?

The actor reads public, open-licence or government data only and does not collect private information. You are responsible for using the results in line with the source's terms and applicable laws.

Use it with AI agents (MCP)

This actor is agent-ready: it is a plain tool with a documented JSON input and a flat JSON output, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other agents can call it through the Apify MCP server.

Add it to an MCP client with this URL (Apify account or agentic payment required):

Example prompt: "Use the Company Registry Lookup (LEI + SEC) tool with the example input below and summarise the results."

Calls are pay per event ($0.004 per company (not-found queries are free)), so an agent can estimate the cost before it runs. Empty or failed lookups return a status record instead of failing the run.
