What you can do

From a spreadsheet to a shortlist.

Batch Upload & Add-ons is one screen in the workspace. Here is what it shows.

01

Upload your list and see how it came out.

Drop an .xlsx file or browse for it. Each row needs a company name and a market; a registration number improves matching, and you can add your own reference. A completed batch shows how many rows matched a database record, are possible matches to review, have no database match or are incomplete, with counts and percentages. You can export the results.

02

Review possible matches, then go deeper.

Work through the possible matches. Each row shows the name you submitted, the candidate record, how it matched and a confidence level. Confirm the right record or reject the wrong one, add companies to monitoring, or request further research on selected subjects. Further research is scoped and quoted separately.

03

Keep a record of every batch.

Recent batches list each file with its upload date, its rows and how many matched, need review or have no match, so you can see every batch at a glance.

Is this the right tool?

When you have more than one company to check.

Batch screening compares a list against records we already hold. It tells you where to look closer; it is not research on each company.

Suitable for
  • Screening a list of suppliers, customers or vendors.
  • Finding which companies in a list need a closer look.
  • Cleaning up a list before you commission research.
  • Sending only the companies that matter for further research.

What is Batch Upload & Add-ons?

A way to screen a whole Excel list of companies against existing database records, then request further research on the companies that matter.

What file do I upload?

How many companies can I upload?

You can screen lists with hundreds of companies at a time. File requirements and row limits are confirmed at launch.

What do the four outcomes mean?

Matched means a database record was found. A possible match has a candidate record for you to confirm or reject. No database match means no record was found. An incomplete row is missing required information.

The screening is automated against existing database records, so no analyst research is commissioned. Further research on selected subjects is scoped and quoted separately.

Can I add companies from a batch to monitoring?

Yes. Select the rows and choose Add to monitoring. See Ongoing Monitoring
