Overview

OpenCorporates is the largest open database of companies in the world. They have 204 million companies from 170 jurisdictions, including the US, UK, Switzerland, Panama, and more. All brought together into a standardized global schema. 

The company also works with NGOs, governments, and anti-corruption activists on issues such as beneficial ownership, anti-money laundering, and financial crime.


OpenCorporates collects data from primary public sources, does not use third-party data providers to access this data. Unlike the traditional ‘black-box’ data providers, OpenCorporates provides open (non-proprietary) identifiers based on the identifiers issued by the official source.


With the Maltego OpenCorporate Transforms, query the OpenCorporates' API and gain access to the underlying structured data, ready to enhance data on-demand or power onboarding or investigation workflows. The Transforms cover the basics of the OpenCorporates API, namely information of companies and their officers.
