### 2026-10-30: First-screen fix (0.1.10–0.1.14)

- 0.1.13: sort fix. Results are now ordered newest incorporation date first, then by the numeric part of the company number. Before, a text sort put letter-prefixed numbers such as SC first. The limit applies after the sort; delta state is unchanged. Sample table rebuilt from run 8jfeg37zxBlS1WGNw.

- Defaults: `lastNDays` 7→3, `maxResults` 10→5 (about $0.015), SIC prefill `62` removed so the Try form equals the real default (all industries). Code fallbacks aligned (7→3, 100→5, summary on).

- README: opening line leads with "new UK companies" / "UK company data", with a real sample table from run KZIBNcs7kUBSlfk1B at the top. Claim audit: removed unsourced daily-volume and weekly-volume figures and a competitor comparison; corrected "one download per day" (5,000-row cap) and result-order wording.

- Title, SEO title and description unchanged.

### 2026-10-28 — Viewer→input funnel (Try defaults + Output examples)

- `addSummary` default → `true` (free; no PPE change).
- Dataset schema: filled sparse field `example` values (companyUrl, summary, filing/accounts helpers) so Store Output tab looks populated.
- README Quick start matches new defaults.
- No title/price/run changes. Build pushed as latest.

### 0.1.8 (2026-10-26)

- Try-path: default/prefill `maxResults` 100→10 (~$0.03 sample). README Quick start leads with sample cost. No price change.

## Changelog

### 0.1.7 (2026-10-23)

- Store listing: clearer title and description, and a small README intro wording update. No code or price changes.

### 0.1.6 (2026-10-18)

- README: new **Example run** section with the exact input and real output from a fresh platform run, and a clearer intro. No code or price changes.

### 0.1.4 (2026-10-18)

- New: optional **officers** (`includeOfficers`): name, role, appointed and resigned dates, plus `directorNames` and `activeOfficerCount`. Current officers only by default (`officersCurrentOnly`), up to `maxOfficers` per company. Dates of birth, nationality and addresses are never collected, and PSC is not requested.
- New: optional **one-line plain-English summary** per company (`addSummary`). It's built by fixed rules, not an AI model, so there's no extra cost.
- New dataset views: **Officers** and **Summaries**.
- Rewritten Store page and README with real sample output, plain cost examples and UK GDPR/PECR guidance.
- No price change: still $0.003 per company, and the new options are free.

### 0.1 (2026-10-18)

- First public release.
- New companies feed: UK incorporations by date window, filtered by SIC code (exact, prefix or section), postcode area, registered office text, company type, subtype, status and name.
- Company lookup by number: profile, SIC descriptions, accounts and confirmation statement dates, overdue flags, previous names.
- Optional filing history (date, form type, description, PDF link).
- Works without an API key. An optional Companies House API key switches to the official REST API.
- Company-level data only (no officers or PSC in this version).
- Pay-per-event pricing: you pay only per company saved, with no extra per-item platform event.
- Delta mode for scheduled alerts, with separate state for each filter set.
- Default window is the last 7 days, so a run with empty input returns results on any day.
