Our UK business directory currently lists 5M+ verified businesses across the UK. The number is updated continuously as new entities register and inactive ones are removed.
We deliver UK business data through four channels to fit your workflow: REST API for automated pipelines, tailored Excel mailing lists for targeted outreach, high-volume bulk packages for global data buyers, and the Bold Platform for self-serve, on-demand list-building. Tell us your target audience and we'll match the right channel.
Yes — searching business names and previewing basic registration data is free. Full records (with email, phone, financials, and 50+ fields per legal entity) require either a platform subscription, a custom Excel export, or API access.
Records are sourced from official UK business registries, tax authorities and trade registers, then enriched with global business intelligence partners. Every UK business registry record is cross-checked against multiple sources to ensure accuracy on legal name, registration ID, address, and industry classification.
We deliver monthly updates of the UK dataset against the official registry feeds, with continuous enrichment from web sources between updates.
Where available: yes. Every record carries the registration ID, legal status, address, and industry classification. Larger entities also include revenue, employee count, executive contacts, and financial indicators.
