Reliable checks, fast - and accessible for agents thanks to x402. Here is how that compares to the bureaus and to doing it yourself.
Lookthrough - one report, ready in minutes
One report, one-off payment. No account, no subscription, no sales call.
Official public sources only: company registries, the OFAC SDN and UK sanctions lists, and public news and web.
Free coverage check before payment - you are only asked to pay once we confirm we can cover the company.
Ready in minutes. People use the form; AI agents use the documented x402 API.
Coverage: 12 countries across Europe, Israel and North America (partial in the US and Canada) - full list on Sources, always shown before payment. No refunds.
Business-information bureaus
(Dun & Bradstreet, Creditsafe, Moody's Orbis and similar)
Deeper data: financial statements, credit scores and limits, group structures, ongoing monitoring and alerts.
Sold mostly as annual subscriptions, often through a sales process; single-report prices are rarely published.
The right tool for credit decisions, ongoing compliance and portfolio monitoring.
Do it yourself
The registries and sanctions lists we use are free to search.
The cost is your time: every country's register works differently, some publish in other languages or scripts, and you assemble and cross-check the picture yourself.
Bottom line. If you need credit scores, financial statements or monitoring, use a bureau. If you want to know who you are dealing with before you sign, that is the check we do. See a real sample report.
