Data services from public records

We build the data your question needs from public records, and keep it current.

For companies, investors, law firms and government contractors: custom data builds and ongoing feeds, run by the same senior team behind our raises and diligence, and delivered as projects.

How a data build works

How a data build works, for four kinds of public dataFour lines run left to right through three stations: what we read, how we join and check it, and what you get. The lines are unclaimed property, government contracting, research for law firms, and health program data. The last station and the lines into it are drawn in oxblood.

What we read

Public records at the source, on each publisher's own schedule.

How we join and check

Linked by registration and provider numbers wherever a record carries one. A match on a name alone is checked against registry filings before it counts.

What you get

Built for one question, then kept current if you want.

  1. Unclaimed property

    State unclaimed property files and business registries

    Old names, merged or dissolved entities, trustees and successors tied to one company

    Property held in your name, and the records behind it

  2. Government contracting

    Federal contract awards and registrations

    Each award tied to the contractor's registration number

    Contracts ending or up for rebid, and who wins at each office

  3. Research for law firms

    Court dockets, complaints, company and federal records

    Tied to each company or agency; citations checked against opinions and dockets

    Evidence behind a case, every source cited

  4. Health program data

    National health program files

    Joined by provider number, then checked twice

    Tables and a short memo on one defined question

Four places we have built it

Old names

Merged

Dissolved

Trustees

Successors

Names unclaimed property can be held under, traced to one companyFive short lines, one each for an old name, a merged entity, a dissolved entity, a trustee and a successor, all run into one square: the company that owns the property today.

Your company

We help companies find unclaimed property held in their name, under old names, merged or dissolved entities, and with trustees and successors.

Services contractors with much of their work able to end soonOne hundred squares, one per percent of the contractors. Just over half are filled: those with a large share of their federal dollars on work that can end within a few years.

Can end soon

Of 2,621 federal services contractors with $10MM to $500MM in FY2025 awards, 52% have at least 40% of those dollars on work that can end by early 2029.

Dockets

Companies

Agencies

Public records gathered into one file for a caseThree small piles of records, for court dockets, companies and agencies, each run by one line into a single file below: the evidence one case needs, in order.

One case

We research for law firms to support their cases: records behind a case theory, class actions found in public data, and False Claims Act (qui tam) matters, every citation checked against its opinion and docket.

Provider number

Seven public health program files joined by provider numberSeven bars to scale, two long, four short and one very short, all joined by one line, the provider number they share.

We read seven national health program files, about 25MM rows, and checked each one against its publisher's own row count or file size.

Our own builds and client work, names withheld.
