New Company Registrations (UK, Europe, Canada, US)

Get every company incorporated since a date in one country, newest first, as rows: legal name, registry number, legal form, incorporation date, industry codes, registered town and postcode, and a link to the record on the official register. The data comes from the national and state registers listed below. Leave Only companies not returned before on and schedule it weekly, and each run returns only the companies you haven't had yet.

It's built for people who sell to businesses in their first months: banks, accountants, insurers, payroll and software vendors, web designers, office and equipment suppliers. It also works for market research, such as counting new restaurants in a town each month.

Quick start

Paste this into the JSON tab and press Start:

{
  "country": "GB",
  "incorporatedSince": "30 days",
  "industry": "62",
  "maxResults": 100
}

That returns up to 100 UK software and IT companies incorporated in the last 30 days, newest first.

• country: one ISO code (required). See the table below.
• incorporatedSince: a span back from today (30 days, 2 weeks, 3 months, 1 year) or a date (2026-10-01). 30 days if empty.
• industry: optional. A code or the start of one, in the country's own system. 62 matches every UK SIC code starting 62. France uses NAF codes (62.01Z), Norway and Finland their NACE-based codes, Ireland NACE.
• city: optional. The registered town as the register writes it, for example Manchester. Case and accents don't matter.
• maxResults: the most companies one run returns. 1,000 if empty, up to 2,000,000.
• onlyNew: on by default. Skips companies this account already got from an earlier run with the same country, industry and town, even when the date window has moved on. Skipped companies are free.

From the API you can also set incorporatedBefore (a date or span; companies incorporated before it, the date itself left out) and segment (active is the default; all adds dissolved companies; active-with-website keeps only companies with a matched website).

What you get

Field	What it is
incorporated	Incorporation or registration date, as the register states it
name, previousName	Legal name, and the former name where the register gives one
registryNumber, id, scheme	The number on the register, and our id with its scheme (GB-CH-16012345)
legalForm, status, active	Legal form, the register's status, and an active flag
city, postcode, country	Registered office town and postcode
industryCodes, industryLabels, industrySystem	Industry codes with their labels (UK SIC 2007, NAF, NACE and others)
website, websites	A matched website, where we hold one, with how it was matched. New companies rarely have one yet

registryUrl, source, registry	The record's page on the register and which register it came from
licence, attribution	The register's licence and the credit line to keep with the data
lastUpdated	The date we last rebuilt the data from the registers

Organisations only. There are no directors, owners, shareholders or other people in any row. Sole traders are left out by each register's own legal forms: the UK and Irish files have no sole traders in them, France drops "personne physique" (legal form 1000), Norway drops ENK, Sweden drops enskild näringsidkare, Finland, Estonia, Czechia and Latvia drop their sole-trader forms, and Singapore drops sole proprietorships.

Coverage and freshness

We rebuild the data from each register's newest open file about once a month. A company appears here after the register has published it and our next rebuild has run, so add up to a month to the register's own schedule below. Each row's lastUpdated shows the date of the build it came from.

Country	Register	The register publishes	So the newest companies lag by
UK (GB)	Companies House, Free Company Data Product	A monthly snapshot	Up to about 5 weeks, sometimes more
France (FR)	INSEE Sirene	A monthly stock file	Up to about 5 weeks
Norway (NO)	Brønnøysund Register Centre	Daily	Up to about a month
Finland (FI)	PRH, YTJ open data	Daily	Up to about a month
Estonia (EE)	e-Business Register (RIK)	Daily	Up to about a month
Czechia (CZ)	Czech Statistical Office, RES	Twice a month	Up to about 6 weeks
Sweden (SE)	Bolagsverket	Weekly	Up to about 5 weeks
Ireland (IE)	Companies Registration Office	Daily	Up to about a month
Latvia (LV)	Register of Enterprises	Daily	Up to about a month
Singapore (SG)	ACRA, via data.gov.sg	Monthly	Up to about 2 months
Canada (CA)	Corporations Canada (federal corporations only)	Daily	Up to about a month
US (US)	New York, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Iowa and Florida (active filings, quarterly file) state registers, plus Texas franchise taxpayers (Secretary of State charter date)	NY and CO daily; CT, OR, IA and TX as each state updates; FL quarterly	Up to about a month (Florida up to a quarter)
Any other code	LEI holders from GLEIF	Several times a day	Up to about a month

Not covered: Australia's ABN bulk extract and Japan's corporate number file state no incorporation date, so we can't list new companies there. A run for AU or JP ends with a message and costs nothing. US companies known only from SEC filings have no incorporation date either and don't appear. Canada covers federal corporations, not provincial ones.

Price

You pay per company returned. Companies an onlyNew run skips are free.

Event	Starter	Scale	Business
New company	$1.00 per 1,000	$0.75 per 1,000	$0.55 per 1,000

A run stops cleanly at maxResults or at the run's maximum charge, whichever comes first, and says so in its status message. Run it again with onlyNew on to carry on from there.
