- It records the offer, not just the category
- In August 2026 we went through the published field references of eleven well-known company and contact data providers. All of them sell size band, sector code, location and contact routes. We did not find one that sells, as a structured field, what the company offers or which brands it carries. If you know of one, tell us — we would rather correct this page than defend it.
- You can search by what a firm does
- “Companies that fit made-to-measure kitchens” is not a sector code and not a word in a company name. It is a sentence on a website. Filtering on the offer list and brands finds installers of a product category, or dealers of a specific brand, across borders — a query a firmographic file cannot answer at all.
- It shows its working
- Every classified field carries the literal sentence it came from. A record you disagree with is arguable in ten seconds instead of unfalsifiable. It is also why the file has gaps: no supporting sentence, no value.
- It describes the business now, not at registration
- Registry data tells you what a company incorporated as, sometimes decades ago. The website tells you what it is selling this quarter.
- It stops at the company
- There is no person layer, and there is no roadmap for one. That is a product decision, not a gap we are working to fill.
