Overview
UK Company Radar is an MVP company intelligence platform built using public Companies House data.
Data source
Company profile data is sourced from Companies House.
Data is fetched by local Python ETL scripts.
The current MVP writes generated JSON for the Astro site.
The public website does not call the Companies House API directly from the browser.
Data freshness
The homepage shows the current generated timestamp.
Data should be treated as a snapshot rather than a live registry lookup.
Important decisions should verify details against Companies House directly.
Generated pages
The site currently generates pages for companies, SIC codes, company statuses, company types, and jurisdictions.

Radar signals are simple rule-based indicators derived from the generated company data.
