USE CASE:

US companies and identity resolution

This page is about identity resolution for US companies: the options you actually have, what each one costs, and which one we would pick. Mamba Labs builds Apify actors, and Public Company Reporting Window Finder is the one named below that covers US companies.

The situation

US companies and identity resolution: one at a time is fine, and a list of them is not. Start from this: US companies file, publish and advertise under local rules that no global dataset models properly, and identity resolution follows. Worth knowing about US companies, since identity resolution inherits it: coverage from any vendor drops off a cliff outside the English speaking market. We keep 2 preconfigured tasks for identity resolution on US companies, across 1 tool.

Traditional Search Tools

  • The national company register, for US companies. Free, authoritative, and in its own language.
  • Your CRM's merge suggestions. Salesforce and HubSpot both offer them. They are conservative by design, so they catch exact matches and miss the interesting cases.
  • Dedupely, Insycle or a dedupe tool. Built for exactly this and worth the money if the mess lives entirely inside one CRM. Less useful when the duplicates arrive from four different sources.
  • A resolution key of your own. Pick one identifier, usually the primary domain, and make every source write it. The cheapest long term fix and the one nobody wants to do.
  • Sort and read. Sort by name, read the list, merge what you recognize. It is tedious and a person is genuinely good at it, up to a few thousand rows.
