Multi-state Secretary of State business-entity lookup via keyless open-data feeds. Hostile interactive SOS portals are not scraped — they appear in failedSources.

What it does

Searches official state open datasets and returns one normalized row per entity: state, name, entity/DOS id, status, type, formed date, city, and source URL.

Live keyless adapters (this build)

StateSource
COdata.colorado.gov Business Entities (4ykn-tg5h)
NYdata.ny.gov Active Corporations (n9v6-gdp6)
ORdata.oregon.gov Active Businesses (tckn-sxa6)

Any other state code (including WA) writes an honest failedSource diagnostic row. Most SOS websites are CAPTCHA/ToS hostile and are intentionally not automated.

Who it's for

  • Compliance / KYC enrichment that needs a legal open feed
  • Lead gen / market mapping limited to open-registry states
  • Developers who refuse captcha farms and want failedSources visibility

Input

  • State codes — default CO, NY (both return live rows for Acme)
  • Entity name contains — default Acme
  • Max results / Max run seconds — keep defaults for a fast sample

Output

FieldDescription
state2-letter code
entityName / entityNumberName + registry id
status / entityTypeAs published (NY/OR active datasets imply Active)
formedDate / cityWhen the feed provides them
noteFailure reason for stub/hostile states

Limitations / kill criteria

  • Does not scrape interactive SOS HTML forms or solve CAPTCHAs.
  • Coverage is limited to states with verified open APIs — expand only via Socrata/CKAN/official bulk feeds.
  • NY/OR status is implied Active by the published dataset title; CO publishes an explicit entitystatus.
