Why DataGardener API?#

Without API
Manual research — teams spend hours searching Companies House, downloading filings, and checking directors.
Outdated spreadsheets — static data that goes stale quickly.
Fragmented sources — financials in one place, officers in another, procurement elsewhere.
Slow onboarding & compliance checks — manual KYC processes delay decisions.
Missed opportunities — no alerts when clients refinance, directors change, or risk levels shift.
High costs — multiple vendors and manual work eat budgets.
