Company Check is a UK web platform for company and director lookups: a 0-100 company score, an insolvency-risk read, County Court Judgments, mortgages and charges, and director-linked-company views, unlocked per report for £20+VAT or by subscription at £35/month or £350/year. No API is advertised on its pages. Prometiam has no company score and no financial accounts — it is a REST API returning Companies House officer and PSC data plus five more countries, corporate events, insolvency notices across nine markets and sanctions screening (beta), with published prices from a free tier.
You want a human-readable UK credit check in a browser — a 0-100 company score, a recommended credit limit and CCJ history — without writing any code, and you are happy paying per report or by monthly subscription.
You are integrating company lookups into software: officers, UK PSC beneficial-ownership data, corporate events and sanctions screening across Spain, France, the UK, Ireland, Poland and Norway behind one key, with public per-call prices and a free tier to start.
Prometiam returns no company score, no credit limit and no financial accounts. Beneficial ownership is the UK PSC register only. Ireland and Poland are company-level with no officers yet; Norway has no corporate-event stream; sanctions screening is beta; insolvency notices are corporate only across nine markets, with Spain served separately on /search.

Two derived signals on the Prometiam side, neither of them a rating: registry_compliance, which marks companies still on the register that stopped meeting their filing duties (Spain, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Norway), and public procurement — Spanish contract awards by supplier, buyer, tax id, CPV code and date, plus a beta score for the contracting body itself in Spain and France. Both are dated facts with their source, on the published price and in the free tier; a score is a prompt to look, never a finding of wrongdoing. Public-buyer risk · Procurement screening
