About the tools
Veridion, the company formerly known as Soleadify, builds a global database of company data using AI that reads the open web and structures it into machine-readable profiles. Rather than reselling government registries, it works out what each business actually does from its website, products, and public footprint, then classifies all of it across NAICS, SIC, NACE, ISIC, UNSPSC, and insurance and ESG taxonomies. The data refreshes weekly and the company claims over 95% accuracy.
The thing most write-ups get wrong is who this is built for today. Veridion is positioned around supplier sourcing, procurement, commercial insurance underwriting, third-party risk management, master data management, market intelligence, ESG, and SMB lending. Its named customers are supply-chain and risk firms like Everstream and Exiger. It is not pitched as a sales or marketing tool, even though its Soleadify roots were in lead generation, and we used that older version for exactly that.
For a marketing reader, the honest relevance is narrower than the procurement crowd's. The strength you can use is market intelligence and target research. Because Veridion indexes companies by their real-world products and activities, you can build a list of every company that genuinely does a specific thing in a specific place, which helps with ICP definition, market sizing, and account selection. It is company-level data, delivered by API, with newer interfaces in Scout and Veridion Explore, and priced as enterprise infrastructure. Treat it as a source for research and enrichment rather than a tool you run a campaign from. If your ICP is defined by what a company does, this finds those companies better than a generic database.

Their features
Veridion's core is two APIs plus a pair of newer interfaces.
The Search API, also called Complex Search, lets you query the database by attributes rather than names: products, materials, industry, keywords and negative keywords, size, certifications, and location. You can build a query like "manufacturers of aerospace circuit boards offering turnkey assembly" and get a counted list of matching companies with full profiles. The Match & Enrich API does the reverse. You send a company name, website, or location and it returns a complete, standardized profile in seconds, resolved to a single identity with corporate hierarchy, subsidiaries, and affiliates mapped.
On top of the APIs, Scout is a newer natural-language interface for supplier discovery, in limited early access, that lets you describe what you want in plain language instead of writing query filters. Veridion Explore is a separate UI for browsing the dataset directly.
The data spans firmographics, full addresses and multiple business locations down to building-level detail, size and revenue estimates, a product and service catalogue covering around 200 million products, corporate hierarchies, technographics, and an unusually deep ESG layer with emissions, scores, and certifications. Every data point carries a confidence score, and you set match strictness yourself, so you can trade recall for precision on a given job. Veridion also markets the absence of artificial usage caps, so you are not throttled by per-record limits the way most data vendors throttle you.
Delivery is built for data teams: real-time APIs, batch files for bulk loads and initial refreshes, bespoke pipelines, and a partner channel. It is designed to drop into MDM, ERP, SRM, or analytics systems rather than a CRM, which tells you where it expects to live.

Best for
Veridion is built for teams that consume company data as infrastructure through an API or a data feed, and its sweet spot is procurement and risk rather than sales and marketing. The clearest fits are supplier sourcing and discovery, finding manufacturers or vendors by what they actually make, third-party risk management and supplier monitoring, commercial insurance underwriting and classification, master data management and entity resolution, SMB lending, and market intelligence. If you run procurement, insurance, or a data team that needs broad, current, global coverage of private and public companies, this is squarely aimed at you.
For the marketing and GTM reader browsing this directory, set expectations accordingly. Veridion is not a prospecting tool, and it does not hand you verified personal emails, phone numbers, or a click-to-sequence workflow. What it gives you is company intelligence, and the use that translates cleanly is research: defining your ICP against real-world business activity, sizing a market, and building target-account lists of companies that genuinely do a specific thing, which you then pass to a contact-data and outreach tool to actually reach people. The Search API is the piece worth knowing for that job.
It is also enterprise-grade and custom-priced, sold through a data consultation rather than a self-serve signup, with a startup programme for smaller teams. A solo founder or a small team without a data or engineering function will find it heavier than they need. Reach for Veridion when your problem is the breadth, freshness, and structure of company data, not when you need to send emails this week. If anything, its best directory home might be a market-intelligence shelf rather than a marketing-execution one.
