THE CHALLENGE: Disconnected, Incomplete and Hard-to-Use Data

To assess risk and make informed decisions, you need accurate and up-to-date business data. The problem is that most company data is:

  • Fragmented across sources
  • Lacking key context (ownership, financial relationships, relationships between businesses and individuals)
  • Hard to match due to inconsistencies, errors or missing information

Matching your internal records with third-party data typically requires lengthy integration or data migration cycles, custom mapping or unreliable manual review.

THE SOLUTION: Combine BQ Data with Senzing Entity Resolution

The combined power of BrightQuery data + Senzing entity resolution makes getting fast answers from business data easy. BrightQuery provides comprehensive, continuously updated data on over 274 million global businesses and 226 million legal entities sourced directly from verified government filings. Their data includes:

  • Corporate hierarchies โ€“ including parent-subsidiary relationships and UBO
  • Employment and financial data โ€“ for public and private companies as well as government organizations
  • People and roles โ€“ executives, directors, owners and their legal and online profiles
  • Contact info โ€“ phone numbers, websites, social media handles
  • Firmographics โ€“ company size, industry, ownership type, and more

BrightQuery: Making the World More Factual, One Dataset at a Time

BrightQuery is a premium business data provider. Its database is one of the most complete business directories available. BrightQuery captures both legal presence (via official filings) and business presence (via sources like LinkedIn, Crunchbase and Meta), creating a more complete and trustworthy profile for every company. Data products cover Capital Markets, KYB & Fraud, Business Credit, and B2B Sales & Marketing .

The ABCs that differentiate BrightQueryโ€™s data:

  • Accuracy: Derived from government filings, including IRS, Dept. of Labor and over 80K state and local agencies
  • Breadth: 360-degree view of the business, including firmographics, ownership, legal status, KYC checks, detailed financials, executives, contacts, branches / locations
  • Coverage: Most companies & owners in the U.S. tracked (74 million companies, 230 million contacts) and extensive global coverage (274 million companies).

BrightQuery data is used by hedge funds, banks, fintechs, compliance teams and even government agencies because itโ€™s broad, deep and continuously updated. If a business isnโ€™t in BrightQueryโ€™s database, it likely operates without much verified or observable presence.

Senzing: Making Data Insightful

In this partnership, Senzing transforms BrightQueryโ€™s rich data โ€“ and your own – into a unified, accurate view of the businesses you care about. The Senzing matching engine handles legal names, DBAs, ownership records and address variations, including multilingual and cross-script data. It reveals matches and relationships that manual review or basic tools would miss, including:

  • Matching records that may look different but are actually the same entity
  • Spotting potential matches and uncovering relationships based on shared attributes
  • Working across messy, cross-cultural or deceitful data
  • Resolving data in real time without needing to reprocess everything

Senzing also supports graph-style queries โ€“ like FindPath and nearest neighbor searches โ€“ so users can uncover relationship chains or similar entities without needing a separate graph database.

Real-World Example

One organization discovered that โ€œCoopertownโ€ and โ€œExhibit Fairโ€ โ€“ initially listed as separate entities โ€“ were actually the same legal business. BrightQueryโ€™s data revealed a shared legal name and tax ID, and Senzing instantly resolved them into a single entity. This kind of correction, previously missed by internal systems, can prevent compliance gaps, duplicate outreach and flawed reporting.

Evaluate on Your Own Terms

Whether youโ€™re a data scientist, compliance officer or business analyst, the BrightQuery + Senzing solution is fast, private and simple to test.

  • No integration required
  • No data leaves your system
  • No guesswork โ€“ just results
