LEI Lookup & Company Enrichment (Official GLEIF API)
Pricing
Pay per usage
Look up Legal Entity Identifiers (LEI) or match company names to LEIs with the official GLEIF API. Legal name, addresses, status, registration and renewal dates, direct and ultimate parent, ISINs. Open data, no scraping.
You can access the LEI Lookup & Company Enrichment (Official GLEIF API) programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in API & Integrations in Apify Console.

It simplifies API development, integration, and documentation.
OpenAPI is effective when used with AI agents and GPTs by standardizing how these systems interact with various APIs, for reliable integrations and efficient communication.
By defining machine-readable API specifications, OpenAPI allows AI models like GPTs to understand and use varied data sources, improving accuracy. This accelerates development, reduces errors, and provides context-aware responses, making OpenAPI a core component for AI applications.
