Is there an Infoempresa API?

Infoempresa is primarily a web directory. There is no publicly documented REST API, and teams who need programmatic access typically end up scraping the site, which Infoempresa actively blocks with rate-limit and bot-detection layers. Prometiam offers a real REST API over the same underlying official BORME source.

How fresh is the data?

Daily. The BORME pipeline runs every business morning UTC and reflects same-day publications.

Is scraping Infoempresa legal?

In Spain, scraping a public-data aggregator without a licence is contested — the underlying data is public (BORME) but the directory’s presentation is copyrighted. Operating against Infoempresa’s ToS exposes you to legal and reputational risk. Prometiam provides a clean licence for the same data.

Does Prometiam cover French and UK companies too?

Yes — Spain (BORME), France (BODACC), the United Kingdom (Companies House) and Norway (Brønnøysundregistrene) under one unified schema, plus Ireland (CRO) and Poland (KRS) at company level, queried via a country parameter.

Infoempresa Alternative

Q: Can I get the same data Infoempresa shows via the Prometiam API?

Yes — Prometiam draws on the same official BORME (Boletín Oficial del Registro Mercantil) source Infoempresa indexes, plus France (BODACC), the United Kingdom (Companies House) and Norway (Brønnøysundregistrene). Company name, NIF, address, legal form, capital, founding date, directors/officers, and the full corporate-event timeline are all available.

Infoempresa is a web-first Spanish company directory built for browsers and SEO, not production integration. Teams needing programmatic access to Spanish registry data usually end up scraping the site and fighting anti-bot defences, IP bans, captchas, and layout changes. Prometiam is a REST API over the same official source — BORME (Boletín Oficial del Registro Mercantil) — plus France (BODACC), the United Kingdom (Companies House) and Norway (Brønnøysundregistrene), with daily-fresh data and predictable pricing from €9.99/month.

Why teams look for an alternative

Infoempresa has no official, documented API — integration means scraping.
Scraping is fragile: anti-bot layers, JS-rendered fields, and layout drift cost engineering hours monthly.
Licensing risk: the underlying BORME data is public, but the directory presentation is copyrighted and operating against its ToS carries exposure.
No sanctions screening, and Spain-only coverage.

How Prometiam compares

Prometiam serves structured JSON via a documented REST API with a Bearer token and predictable rate limits, ES + FR + GB + IE + PL + NO coverage live, public pricing (€0 / €9.99 / €29.99 / custom), and a free tier of 1,000 calls per month. It adds sanctions and US export-control screening across six sources (EU, UN, OFAC, UK OFSI, French gels, and the US Consolidated Screening List / BIS Entity List, Denied Persons, ITAR) — over 44,000 active entities — with PEP screening in beta for Spain only (no relatives or close associates) and no adverse-media data. The page also covers real scraping costs, a migration guide mapping scraped URLs to API endpoints, and who should still pick Infoempresa (occasional single lookups).

Beyond the registry record

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
