Does the API provide this data?

Hi Guys,

There are 3 key pieces of information I’d like from the API. I’m hoping someone can tell me if it currently provides these or not.

Number of company employees
Company revenue
Company profit

I believe these are all in the account statements that can be pulled as PDFs but am I correct in assuming these are of varying formats depending on the accounting software used for the filling? So programmatically reading these with tesseract OCR or something similar would be very difficult.

Thanks,
Jamie

The API is not the service for you.
Have a look at our accounts product :-
http://download.companieshouse.gov.uk/en_monthlyaccountsdata.html
This will give you some of the data you are looking for as data, not scanned images.
Hope this helps

Thank you very much that’s great :slight_smile:
