New Business Registrations — Newly Registered Companies

A company that registered last week needs a bank account, an accountant, payroll, insurance, a website and a CRM — and it has not chosen any of them yet. New Business Registrations reads the official registries every day and hands you those companies as leads: name, legal form, registration date, registered address, officers where the registry publishes them, industry codes, and — when the company already has one — its website, domain and email addresses. No login, no API key, no browser.

• Banks, payroll, accounting & insurance sales — the classic "new business" list, straight from the source.
• Web agencies & domain/hosting vendors — most rows have no website yet; the ones that do are flagged.
• Local B2B sales — new LLCs in Denver, new Ltds in Manchester, new s.r.o.s and sole traders in Brno, filtered by city and industry.
• Data teams & AI agents — a stable id per entity, flat rows, a per-watch memory that says what is new since last run.

What does New Business Registrations do?

It is a new company registrations scraper across ten official registries:

Jurisdiction	Source	What the registry publishes
United Kingdom (gb)	Companies House advanced search + officers pages	name, number, type, status, incorporation date, registered office, SIC codes, directors
Czech Republic (cz)	ARES (Ministry of Finance) notification batches + public-register records	name, IČO, legal form, formation date, address, NACE, statutory bodies, business activities
Czech Republic, sole traders (cz-trade)	ARES trade-licence (RŽP) notification batches + trade-licence records	trader name, IČO, start date, place of business, NACE, licensed trades
Switzerland (ch)	SHAB / FOSC — the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce, new commercial-register entries (HR01)	name, UID, legal form (AG, GmbH, Einzelunternehmen…), register date, address, canton, purpose, capital, owners / partners / managers / board
France (fr)	BODACC — the official gazette of Registre du commerce et des sociétés registrations	name or trade name, SIREN, legal form (SAS, SARL, SCI…), capital, head-office address, managers (président, gérant…), declared activity, start-of-activity date; sole traders too
Norway (no)	Brønnøysund Register Centre — Enhetsregisteret open API + roles	name, organisation number, legal form (AS, ENK, NUF…), registration and founding date, business address, NACE codes, website / email / phone when registered, CEO, chair, board, owner
Colorado, US (us-co)	Secretary of State open data	name, id, type, status, formation date, principal address, registered agent
Connecticut, US (us-ct)	Secretary of the State open data (business master + principals + agents)	name, account number, type, status, registration date, business address, business email, NAICS code, principals, registered agent
New York, US (us-ny)	Department of State open data	name, DOS id, type, filing date, county, service-of-process contact, registered agent
Oregon, US (us-or)	Secretary of State open data	name, registry number, type, registry date, principal place of business, registered agent

For every registration it then looks for the company's own website (a homepage probe on the company name, then a web search), accepts a site only when the page names the company and places it where the registry does, and extracts emails, phone and social links from it. One flat row per entity, deduplicated across runs by jurisdiction:registryId.

Why use this new business registrations scraper?

• Official sources, verbatim. Every registry fact is copied as published, with a link to the registry page. Nothing is guessed — a field is real or null.
• Ten registries, one schema. entityClass normalizes "Private limited company", "Domestic Limited Liability Company" and "Společnost s ručením omezeným" to llc, corporation, nonprofit, partnership… so one filter works everywhere.
• Website & contacts only when verified. domainSource says how the site was found and websiteConfidence how strong the match is. Parked domains and same-name companies elsewhere are rejected.
• Delta mode for schedules. Turn on Only registrations not reported before, give the watch a name, run it daily — every run returns just the new companies, and isNewSinceLastRun is on every row.
• Fair pricing. A small per-registration price; the contact fee only when an email or social profile was actually found. Filtered-out rows, duplicates and already-reported entities are free.
• CRM-ready. CSV/Excel/JSON export, an auto-generated REGISTRATIONS.csv, a sellTo hint per row, and clean ids for joins.

How to get newly registered companies

1. Open the Actor and click Try for free.
2. Pick the registries (default: all), the window (Registered within the last N days, default 7) and Max registrations (split equally across the registries, newest first).
3. Optional filters: name keywords, entity types, cities, SIC/NACE codes.
4. Leave Find website, domain & emails on to turn registrations into leads; turn on Only registrations with a website / email if you want to pay only for reachable companies.
5. Click Start. A 100-row run across all registries takes 2–4 minutes.
6. Export as CSV, Excel, JSON, open REGISTRATIONS.csv, or read the dataset from your CRM, Zapier / Make / n8n, or an AI agent via MCP.

Daily feed of new companies (delta mode)

Set Only registrations not reported before and a Watch id (e.g. denver-llcs), then schedule the run daily. The first run is the baseline; from the second run on, only entities the watch has never reported are delivered and charged. The memory lives in a named key-value store (new-registrations-state-<watchId>) that you can inspect or delete.

How much does it cost?

Pay-per-event, no subscription: $0.02 per registration delivered plus $0.02 when the verified website yielded at least one email or social profile, and a small run-start fee. 100 registrations cost about $2.00–2.60; a scheduled delta run that finds nothing new costs $0.005. Apify's free plan covers a few hundred registrations a month.

The key-value store holds OUTPUT (a run summary with per-registry counts, filter reasons and watch status) and REGISTRATIONS.csv.

Tips

• Newest first. Each registry is read from the most recent day backwards, so a small maxResults still gives you the freshest companies.
• Registries lag. Colorado, Connecticut, Norway and Companies House publish the same day, BODACC 1–10 days after the RCS registration, ARES within 1–2 days, New York 1–3 days, Oregon about weekly. A 7-day window with delta mode catches everything exactly once.
• Most new companies have no website yet. Expect a website on 5–20 % of rows in the first week; run the watch again a month later (with a wider window) to catch the sites that came online.
• Industry codes differ by registry. sicCodes matches UK SIC, Connecticut NAICS and Czech/Norwegian NACE codes by prefix (dots ignored); Colorado, New York and Oregon publish none — use keywords (name contains) there.

FAQ

Does it need a Companies House API key or any login?

No. It reads the public advanced-search pages, the open ARES REST API and the states' open-data portals.

How is the website verified?

The homepage must be live, not a parked/for-sale page, its domain must carry the company's name, the page must say the company's name, and it must mention the registered city or postcode (or sit on the country's own TLD — a state or country name alone is not enough). websiteConfidence: medium means the domain drops generic words from the name (acme.com for "Acme Ventures LLC"); high means the domain is the full name.

Why are officers empty for some US rows?

Colorado and Oregon do not publish officers in their open data; New York publishes the service-of-process contact, which is often the owner and is reported as an officer with that role. Connecticut publishes principals (members, officers, directors) — read when Include officers is on. All four publish the registered agent.

Can I add other states or countries?

The Actor is built source-by-source; jurisdictions with an open registry (open-data JSON or plain HTML search by date) can be added. Delaware, Texas and Florida do not offer that today.

Is this legal?

All data comes from official public registers published for exactly this purpose. Respect local rules on marketing to the officers named in them.
