Company data from the Wisconsin business register, through the Topograph API.

Topograph reads Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, Corporate Records Search and returns the company profile and other key persons of Wisconsin companies through one API.

What comes back for each datapoint and document, as on the coverage matrix.

Every request is a full register read, in verification mode.

  • Company profileYes
  • Other key personsYes

Documents

  • Register extractYes
  • Articles of associationNo
  • FinancialsNo
  • UBO extractNo
  • Wisconsin DFI Entity Detail (printed)

A company profile typically comes back from the register in 3 s in verification mode.

These are typical observations, not a service-level commitment: set your timeouts well above them.

The registers this country’s data comes from. Secondary sources only enrich or check what the registers return.

  • Official Wisconsin corporate register maintained by the Department of Financial Institutions (WDFI). The public Corporate Records Search exposes legal name, seven-character entity ID, entity type, registered effective date, status with status date, period of existence, registered agent name and address, principal office address, prior legal names, and the full chronology of filings (incorporation, amendments, registered-agent changes, restorations, dissolutions). Officers and directors are filed on the annual report and are not part of the public search record; shareholders and beneficial owners are not collected at the state level.

  • Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation – Legal Entity Identifier reference data

Request a company by its Wisconsin DFI Entity ID as the id, with countryCode set to US-WI. Its format, validation rules and an example value are in the full reference.

The full reference covers how each datapoint is sourced and mapped, the vocabularies the API returns, the documents you can order and exact example responses. It is free with a Topograph account.
