- Every run now sets a status message you can read straight from the run list.
The run used to end with a bare exit: the whole summary went to the log and to
the SUMMARY record, so from the run list a run that checked 900 leads against
SIRENE looked exactly like one whose every register call errored out.
- A run where the register never answered for a single lead is now reported as a
source outage and ends red, instead of shipping a list of "not found in the
register" rows. "Not registered under this name" is an answer we sell; "the
register did not answer" is not, and the two are now told apart by a counter
rather than by the absence of one. Wording lives in one pure, unit-tested
function (
src/status.js).
- README states the price ($0.02 per lead verified, $0.01 per run start),
documents
minMatchScore (and the 86 recommended for directory and Google
Maps exports), and names the checkInsolvency / screenSanctions toggles.
Three matcher fixes, all of which made real companies read as "Not found in the
company register".
- France: the register full-text-searches the registered name and keeps the
legal form as a numeric code, so a lead written the way a CRM writes it —
"Doctolib SAS" — returned nothing at all while "Doctolib" resolves to SIREN
794598813. The search now retries without the legal form when the first
attempt finds nothing.
- United Kingdom: the Companies House name filter is a literal
contains-match, and the query was being stripped of its punctuation first, so
"Asos.com Limited" was searched for as "asos com" and found nothing. Dot-com
brands now keep their dots and match (ASOS.COM LIMITED, 03584121).
- Scoring: a sole trader whose shopfront sign copies a famous brand could
tie the real company that is actually registered under that name, and the
result was reported as too ambiguous to call. A registered legal name now
outranks a trading-name alias by a small margin, which is enough to break the
tie without breaking the companies that genuinely trade under another name
(BlaBlaCar is registered as COMUTO and still matches).
First release.
- Verifies a B2B lead list against the official company registers of France
(SIRENE / RNE), the United Kingdom (Companies House) and Germany
(Handelsregister).
- Checks every matched company for insolvency in BODACC, The Gazette and
Insolvenzbekanntmachungen, with the date, the court and a link to the notice.
- Screens companies and their directors against the OFAC SDN, UN, EU, UK OFSI
and US Consolidated Screening lists, downloaded fresh on every run.
- Returns a confidence score from 0 to 100 with its full reasoning, so you can
see exactly why a lead scored what it scored.
- Takes a pasted list, an Apify dataset ID from another scraper, or a link to a
CSV export.
- No API key required. A Companies House key is optional and adds SIC codes and
richer UK status data.
