Knowyourcustomer

Live, registry-connected global company verification and ownership data across 150+ jurisdictions (including the Philippines), exposed through three separable products: a KYB API (registry record — name, registration number, status, addresses, officers), a Company Data API (the raw entity dataset), and a KYC API that assembles a 'case' combining the entity record, a recursive ownership chart resolving controlling entities down to ultimate beneficial owners, identity verification on the associated directors/UBOs, and sanctions/watchlist screening. Critically, the vendor states data is retrieved LIVE at verification time from official registries rather than served from a cache — meaning it holds a real-time registry-access layer plus the accumulated ownership graphs and verification outcomes generated across cases.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular, API-native and self-serve — a documented REST API with a FREE developer sandbox containing a sample company set, plus three distinct API surfaces (KYB, company data, KYC). This is the most immediately retrievable source in the cohort: a buyer can test live Philippine registry verification today without a sales conversation.
Volume: Not stated as a record count; the quantified property is jurisdictional breadth — 150+ jurisdictions (the page states 150+; the search summary recorded 147, indicating the figure is current and moves). Two structural constraints on 'volume': the vendor states data is live from registries rather than cached, so the static asset is the accumulated ownership graph and case history rather than a mirror of global registries; and a separate 'company data API' product exists, implying a static entity dataset does exist — request its record count and per-jurisdiction depth.
Users: N/A — developer-facing B2B API with no consumer user base; scale is integrating developers and enterprises, not published. Bounding inference: order of hundreds of integrating customers (inferred from a free self-serve sandbox plus a sales-led production tier, ~60 staff, ~$4.1M venture funding). Request the integrating-customer count.
History: not stated
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active — current developer documentation with an expanding set of API surfaces (separate KYB, company-data and KYC developer pages), a live free sandbox, and jurisdiction coverage figures that move between sources (147 vs 150+), indicating an actively growing registry network rather than a fixed catalogue.
Launched: ~2016-2018 — the provider organisation record traces to a ~2016 registration and the API versioning visible in the docs (a /v2/ endpoint namespace) indicates at least one prior major version, consistent with a launch in the mid-to-late 2010s followed by a v2 platform. Request the first-API-live date and the v2 release date.
