Run an automated due diligence check on any UK company. Verify status, filing compliance, directors, and risk indicators from 53 data sources.
Company due diligence is the process of investigating a business before entering into a commercial relationship. It typically covers verifying the company’s registration status, reviewing its financial filings, checking its directors and beneficial owners, and screening for any regulatory issues or sanctions. In the UK, due diligence is a legal obligation in certain contexts — for example, under the Money Laundering Regulations 2017, regulated firms must carry out customer due diligence (CDD) before establishing a business relationship.
No. This tool runs a quick automated assessment against publicly available data from Companies House and other UK government sources. It is a useful starting point for basic Know Your Business (KYB) checks, but it does not replace a comprehensive due diligence investigation. A full report would include deeper financial analysis, beneficial ownership tracing, adverse media screening, site visits, and potentially legal opinions. For a more detailed analysis, sign up for our full platform which includes multi-dimensional risk scoring, director network mapping, and sanctions screening across 53 data sources.
This tool cross-references data from Companies House (registration, accounts, directors, PSC declarations, mortgages), plus signals from 53 government and regulatory bodies including the FCA, HMRC, ICO, Land Registry, CQC, Environment Agency, Charity Commission, DVSA, and international sources like OpenSanctions and the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database. Each data point is classified into categories (governance, compliance, financial, risk, trade, ESG) and contributes to the overall assessment.
Company registration data is synced daily from Companies House via official bulk data feeds (products 100, 198, and 201). Signal data from other regulatory sources is refreshed on a rolling schedule, typically every 1–4 weeks depending on the source. Risk scores are recomputed on demand. The “last updated” timestamp shown on individual company pages reflects the most recent data change for that specific company.
Go beyond basic checks. Our full platform includes AI-powered risk scoring across 5 dimensions, director network analysis, beneficial ownership tracing, sanctions screening, and access to 50M+ data signals from 53 official UK sources.
