Companies House Scraper — UK Company Data, Status & SIC

UK Companies House Scraper — United Kingdom Company Data, Status & SIC ✅ No API Key

Scrape any UK (United Kingdom / Britain) company from Companies House (find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk) by company number — registered name, number, status, type, incorporation date, registered office address, SIC activity codes, officers and persons with significant control (PSC). Powered by the Neuralverge API. No API key or account required, and you only pay for companies we actually find.

Ideal for KYC/KYB, due diligence, compliance, lead enrichment and feeding company data to AI agents.

✨ Why this Actor

• 🇬🇧 Full Companies House profile — identity, status, SIC codes, officers and PSC in one structured object.
• 💸 Pay only for the companies you get — unresolved numbers are skipped and never billed. Misses are free; no empty, billable rows.
• 🔑 No API key or account — extraction runs on the Neuralverge backend.
• ⚡ Real-time & structured — fresh data each run and one predictable JSON schema.

🔧 How it works

1. Provide a UK company number (e.g. 08804411) — or an advanced full Companies House profile URL.
2. Run the Actor. Fetching and AI-structuring the profile happens on the Neuralverge backend.
3. Get one dataset row per company — the source url, the extraction settings (including the JSON schema) and the structured machine object. Export to CSV, JSON or Excel, or pull it over the Apify API.

If the company can't be resolved, it's logged and skipped without charge.

Input

One company per run.

Field	Type	Notes
companyNumber	string	The UK Companies House company number, e.g. 08804411.
companyUrl	string	Advanced: a full Companies House profile URL to use instead of the number.

{
  "companyNumber": "08804411"
}

What you'll receive

Each dataset row mirrors the Neuralverge system output and has three top-level blocks:

• url — the Companies House profile URL that was scraped.
• settings — the extraction settings, including the full JSON schema used, at settings.extract_schema_json.
• machine — the structured result: company_name, company_number, company_status, company_type, incorporation_date, registered_office_address, nature_of_business_sic (SIC codes), officers and persons_with_significant_control.

Nulls & empty sections are normal. Only data present on the profile is filled — officers and persons_with_significant_control can be null when not shown on the overview page.

Example output (real run)

A real dataset row from https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/08804411, shown in full — including the complete extraction schema (settings.extract_schema_json) and the full machine-readable result (machine). The human markdown summary is produced by the system but omitted from the dataset.
