Know the business
is actually real.

1. 01

   A PDF is not a verification

   Most onboarding still ends with someone opening a scanned certificate and deciding it looks right. Nothing is checked against the source registry, and nothing is recorded about who decided what.

2. 02

   Directors are the actual risk

   The entity may be real while the people behind it are not who they claim. Ownership and directorship rarely get checked at all, because doing it by hand across registries is slow work.

3. 03

   It does not survive an audit

   When a regulator or partner asks how a business was onboarded eighteen months ago, the answer is usually a folder of email attachments and nobody's memory.

1. 01

   Submit an entity

   Send a registration number, or a name and country. One POST, no dashboard work, no file uploads.

2. 02

   We check the source

   The entity is resolved against the official registry rather than a document supplied by the applicant, and matched across name variants and spelling differences.

3. 03

   You get a structured answer

   Registration status, registered address, directors and officers, and the discrepancies between what was claimed and what the registry says.

4. 04

   The record persists

   Every check is stored with its evidence and a timestamp, so the decision can be reconstructed years later without relying on anyone's inbox.

Nothing here is marked in service yet. When Nigeria goes live that row changes, and nothing else on this page does.

This is the planned interface, not a live endpoint. We publish it now so design partners can tell us where it is wrong before it hardens. If a field here would not fit your onboarding flow, that is exactly what we want to hear.
