Middesk verifies businesses against US Secretary of State filings across all 50 states, real-time IRS TIN/EIN matching, OFAC/PEP/adverse-media screening, liens, bankruptcies and litigation, in one order — and, since a product release Middesk dates 6 August 2026, against registries in Canada, Europe (its own examples: France, Germany and the UK) and APAC through the same integration, reachable through sales. Prometiam has no US registry at all. It covers Spain, France, the UK, Ireland, Poland and Norway from the official registries, updated daily, with public pricing from a free tier of 1,000 calls a month.
You are onboarding or underwriting US businesses and need Secretary of State registration, IRS TIN/EIN matching, liens, bankruptcies, litigation, OFAC/PEP/adverse-media screening and automated decisioning across all 50 states, with sales-led access now extending to Canada, Europe and APAC.
Your counterparties are in Spain, France, the UK, Ireland, Poland or Norway, you want to see the price before you talk to anyone, and you need registry facts, officers, corporate events, monitoring (ES, IE, PL) and sanctions screening (beta) rather than a US-first product reaching outward.
No US company registry: the only US content on the API is corporate insolvency notices and the US lists inside export-control screening. Beneficial ownership is real only for the UK (PSC register); Ireland and Poland are company-level; Norway has no corporate-event stream; sanctions and PEP screening are beta.

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
