Executive Summary

Risk and compliance teams (AML, sanctions, procurement, and M&A) today struggle to reliably map fragmented, jurisdictional corporate registries to ultimate corporate parents and UBOs; current workflows rely on slow manual research or bulk vendor files that are error-prone and lack machine-readable provenance. This causes audit failures, missed sanctions hits, and expensive remediation work for regulated institutions. You could build an API-first service that ingests digitized government registries, normalizes identifiers, and produces verifiable ownership graphs with confidence scores, primary-source links, and change monitoring, plus a simple UI for audits. Delivering REST/GraphQL endpoints, downloadable evidence, and enterprise-grade SLAs would target buyers willing to pay ~$30K ACV for reliable, auditable ownership data. The timing is attractive: a $6.0B addressable market (200,000 enterprises × $30K ACV), rising regulatory and sanctions pressure that creates recurring demand, and improving access to primary sources via digitization and open-data initiatives that lower data collection costs. Market and revenue scores (88/100 and 90/100) reflect strong willingness to pay and feasible monetization. You can differentiate by obsessing over provenance, developer UX, and automated cross-registry entity resolution to beat incumbents who sell bulk files or manual reports, but expect real challenges in global coverage, entity-matching accuracy, and legal validation—these are addressable through phased country expansion, partnerships with local registries, and conservative confidence thresholds.

Market Opportunity

Identify ultimate corporate parents by automated registry mapping targets a $6.0B = 200000 enterprises × $30K ACV total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 10% YoY — demand growth across regtech and corporate data markets driven by regulatory enforcement and supply-chain transparency (industry reports 2022-2024).

Key trends driving demand: Regulatory pressure and sanctions enforcement are increasing recurring demand for auditable ownership data — this drives willingness to pay for verified sources.; Digitization of government registries and open-data initiatives is improving automated access to primary sources — this reduces collection cost over time.; Buyers prefer API-first, machine-readable data with provenance over bulk files and manual reports — this enables small players to compete with incumbents using better developer UX.; LLMs and entity-extraction models are improving upstream parsing and normalization of unstructured filings and foreign language registries — this accelerates coverage..

Key competitors include Bureau van Dijk (Orbis / S&P Global), OpenCorporates, Dun & Bradstreet (D&B Hoovers).
