The Netstate changelog: product updates, release notes and data-quality fixes, dated. New features, new datasets and bug fixes ship here first; data coverage changes are also reflected in the methodology.
BBB & E-Verify matching, registered-agent hubs
Better Business Bureau rows now match on alternate names and zip+state, E-Verify sector data joined the Industry section, and registered agents got their own directory hubs under /agents.
Form 5500 retirement-plan section
Employee benefit and 401(k) plan records from DOL/EBSA joined the profile, with plan history and modeled employee counts labeled as estimates.
Real data only
The directory now serves live registry records exclusively — the synthetic placeholder directory is gone. Browse companies by jurisdiction.
Free for journalists
Verified news journalists get free Pro access — applications reviewed by a person. See the program.
128M-company spine & UCC lien records
Profiles moved onto the resolved 128-million-company register spine, linking officers, addresses and connections across records. UCC lien cards now read each state pipeline's raw filing columns.
Checkout, exports & 400M-record search
Paid plans went live with Paddle checkout, alongside one-off data exports and search across 400M+ matched records.
Open to AI agents
Public read API under /v1, an MCP server at /mcp and markdown mirrors of the documentation — agents get the same cited records people do. No breaking changes to the schema since; see the API reference for versioning and security.
Netstate launches
First public version: company search over primary-source registers, positioned for counterparty diligence.
