ABOUT
A signal layer for the newest part of the UK economy.
Lead Forge exists because the most useful moment to meet a company — the week it is formed — is also the moment it is hardest to find. We built a product that reads the public register and tells you, honestly, what it means.
WHY WE BUILT IT
The register is public. Discovery is not.
Around 800,000 companies are incorporated in the UK every year. Each one is published by Companies House on the day it is formed, with its registered office, its directors, its stated activity and, over time, its filings. That is an extraordinary public dataset, and it is built for filing and lookup rather than for discovery. If you sell to, advise or study new businesses, the information you need is there, but not in a form you can act on.
Lead Forge reads the same public data and reorganises it around the question people actually have: who just started, where, doing what, and why might they need me now? The directory and city pages answer the first three. The AI analysis takes an honest run at the fourth, and labels every sentence as either public data or interpretation so you never mistake a guess for a fact.
HOW WE WORK
Three rules the product follows

THE TEAM
Built and run by Krapton
Krapton is a software development and IT consulting company headquartered in New Delhi, India. We design, build and ship web platforms, mobile apps and AI products for founders and teams across the US, UK, UAE, India and beyond — and we build our own products too.
Lead Forge started as an internal tool for Krapton's own outreach to UK founders and became a product when the labelled analysis proved more useful than the raw list. The same team maintains it today, answers enquiries and corrections, and fulfils Plus research requests.

DATA AND INDEPENDENCE
Where the data comes from
Company information is sourced from the public Companies House register through its API, under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Lead Forge is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Companies House. Officer and PSC names are part of that public register; if you believe a record is wrong, the correction route is described on the privacy page.
AI analysis is generated with Google Gemini. Website and contact discovery, where shown, comes from a separate enrichment step and is limited to Lead Forge Plus members. Read the terms for how the service may be used.
