Aperture — Global B2B Buying-Signal & Statutory Enrichment Suite

Track New Executive Appointments & B2B Incorporations in the UK, France, Germany & Austria

Capture high-intent leadership changes the moment they are filed across official European commercial registries. Instead of waiting weeks for executives to update their personal LinkedIn profiles or burning credits on brittle scrapers that return unresolvable links, this Actor monitors statutory registry filings across France (BODACC & Recherche d'Entreprises), the UK (Companies House & GLEIF), Germany (Handelsregister), and Austria (Firmenbuch). It identifies newly appointed Managing Directors, Présidents, and direct commercial incorporations, resolves the company's authentic website domain, and extracts verified corporate contact details in a single pass. Runs in the cloud without requiring your LinkedIn cookies or browser login.

Strict Named-Contact $0.008 Zero-Proxy HTTP/2 <5s LIMITED_PERMISSIONS • MCP Ready

Fair Pricing Guarantee: Only Pay for Named People
  • $0.002 per registry signal ($2.00 / 1,000) — job-signal-scraped: Includes normalized legal entity name, resolved domain, statutory leadership filing (role_title), share capital/entity size (salary_band), registration ID, jurisdiction, filing date, and official registry source link.
  • $0.008 per named executive contact ($8.00 / 1,000) — buying-signal-enriched: You only pay the enriched rate when we deliver a verified [email protected] email (email_verification_status: "ok") with validated corporate MX records.
  • Generic info@ & contact@ Inboxes Are Free: If a business only discloses a general corporate contact channel (info@, contact@, direction@), we still include it in your output at no extra cost (email_verification_status: "role_fallback") and bill strictly at the $0.002 base rate.
  • Unincorporated Entities & Sole Proprietors Skipped Free: Exclude civil real-estate vehicles (SCI), non-trading entities, or sole proprietors pre-charge at $0.00 cost.
Built for Clay Tables, n8n Workflows & Weekly Outbound Sequences
  • Instant First-Run Preview: Click Start to run the default preview with pre-configured filters—enriched_with_email and maxItems: 5 are enabled by default so you inspect verified leadership contacts on your very first run.
  • Cross-Run Delta Mode (onlyNewSignals): Enable onlyNewSignals with monitorScopeName to prevent duplicate billing across recurring weekly schedules.
  • Pre-Fetch Filtering Shield: Apply excludeCompanyKeywords (e.g. Holding, SCI, Dormant), excludeLocations, and blacklistDomains to filter out irrelevant records before web enrichment occurs.
