Companies House API Web Interface
Company Explorer is a web-based interface for searching, reviewing and managing UK company information using Companies House data.
It is designed for users who need practical access to company information through a browser, without building their own Companies House API integration.
What Is Company Explorer?
Company Explorer is a Companies House API Web Interface that helps users search UK companies, review company details, manage company lists and export company information for further use.
The application is useful for people and organisations that regularly work with UK company data and need a simple interface rather than direct API calls.
