Data
Everything on a business with one input.
Once you have a Palm ID, pull forward everything Palm indexes on an entity. Reduce TIN matching, risk assessment, and officer-level KYC with realtime verification. Then turn on Monitoring for ongoing compliance.
Palm ID
Stable unique identifier — consistent across updates, reuse it to skip future lookups.
Names
The registered legal name exactly as it appears in the state filing, not how the customer typed it.
Entity type
LLC, Corporation, LP, Non-Profit — normalized to a consistent schema across all 50 states.
Web enrichment
Match website to business to owners. Pull everything you need in one simple action, then verifying after.
Formation date
Original incorporation date from the state record — useful for seasoning checks in lending and underwriting.
Jurisdictions
Where the entity formed and where it's registered to operate — two different concepts, both returned.
Status
Active, dissolved, suspended — straight from the registry, so you never run KYB on a dead entity.
Addresses
Registered principal place of business and mailing addresses — pre-fill your address fields and skip asking the customer.
NAICS
Know exactly the industry your customer is operating in — from the authoritative source.
Associates
Who owns what and is connected to the business — officers, directors, registered agents, members.
Registration number
Authoritative registration IDs for everything you need to connect back to the original filing.
Standing
Reduce your risk with real understanding of the business's standing in its registration jurisdiction.
Why Palm
The source of truth on any business.
Every other data vendor sells you a copy that was fresh last quarter. Palm pulls from the primary source. The same registries your lawyers and regulators use.
125M+

Authoritative sources
All 50 US state registries are just a subset. Palm connects to hundreds of authoritative sources globally.
Associates
Officers, directors, and agents — automated.
The data your compliance team pulls manually from state filings, returned in a structured array. Use it to trigger KYC checks on key officers without asking the business to name them.
Officers & Directors

Example data
Sarah Chen — President
Marcus Reid — Secretary
Priya Nair — Director
Registered Agent
The designated entity or individual for legal service of process, including name, address, and whether they're a professional registered agent firm.
Example data
Registered Agents Inc.
850 New Burton Rd, Suite 201
Dover, DE 19904
Owners & Members
For entities where ownership is disclosed in state filings — member names for LLCs, partner names for LPs — as listed on the public record.
Example data
Acme Parent Corp — 80%
Chen Family Trust — 20%
