Company Brief (KYB in one call)

Company check (KYB) and company enrichment in one call, built from six official or primary sources: legal entity from the Global LEI Index (legal name, LEI, status, register number, founding date, legal and HQ address, other candidates), EU VAT number check against VIES, sanctions screening against the OFAC SDN, EU and UN lists, domain registration and email security (RDAP, MX, SPF, DMARC grade), website technology stack, and recent news. Returns key_facts as plain sentences plus every section in full, and a checks map that says which parts ran, were skipped or failed. For supplier and customer onboarding, lead qualification, due diligence and sales research, especially for European companies. Cheaper than calling company-lookup, vat-validate, sanctions-screen, domain-check, tech-stack and news-search one by one. Send at least one of name, vat_number, lei or domain; name plus domain gives the fullest brief. Not charged when nothing is found.
