Services and products

DueDil pulls in data from a wide range of sources and digitises it, allowing users to search for information, find new customers and avoid risk.

Company search results provide information including up to 20 years of financial data, mortgages, investments, red flags, litigations, and group structures.

Director search results show individual director profiles, including full name, birthdate, nationality, known aliases, timelines of current and previous directorships, and social media profiles.

DueDil features include an alert function that allows users to track and receive updates on companies of interest, detailed company and director search filters, financial metrics, news, group graphs, charts, and integration with social networks. In April 2014, DueDil released the third version of its API to allow developers to integrate the service.
