Welcome to the OpenCorporates Community forum

OpenCorporates has a simple aim - to have a URL for every company in the world. Not only that, we want to be a public resource for information about those companies. As corporations exert more and more control over our everyday lives we need to have better information available in order to hold them to account.

We can't do this without the help of our amazing community. Whether it's finding sources of information online or writing code to get that data into the OpenCorporates site, there are missions for every skill level. This group is also for discussing how you're using the site at opencorporates.com to help your research - are there areas we can improve?

You can use this forum to ask questions and get feedback on any of these things. We'll also be posting regular updates with tips and information on new features and data on the site.
