We make it easier for B2B companies to transact with one another

Middesk is the business identity platform. Our APIs allow B2B companies to access the information, insights, and documentation they need to onboard and transact with their customers. Our products help product, risk, and finance teams make informed regulatory compliance and commercial credit decisions, confirm that suppliers meet federal and state licensing requirements, and register their customers with the necessary government agencies.

Our verification product allows platforms like Shopify, Affirm, and Wells Fargo to determine the legitimacy of any business in the United States and automate Know Your Business (KYB) requirements. In addition, our products can be used to identify a business's industry, sanctions risks, bankruptcies, financing liens, and active or pending litigations. Enterprises such as ServiceChannel and Tesla use our products to ensure that all of their suppliers are legitimate businesses registered with the necessary government agencies.
