Resolve fragmented company records into stable legal entities

Company names change, formats vary and the same entity appears differently across systems. Zephira resolves those records around the legal identity anchored in an official registry.

Registry identifiers act as durable anchors while source records remain preserved.

About entity resolution

What does Zephira entity resolution provide?

Match company names, registration identifiers and record variants to a stable legal-entity identity with source provenance.

Where does the underlying data come from?

Official company registries and filed documents are the starting point. Zephira preserves registry, identifier, filing and retrieval context as the records are structured and enriched.

How can I access entity resolution?

Use Zephira through the REST API, bulk data feeds, MCP for AI agents or the company-search interface, depending on the workflow and volume.

Compliance, risk, data, product and AI teams use entity resolution when they need structured company facts with clear provenance.

Where does the data for entity resolution come from?

Official company registries and filed company documents are the starting point. Source context is retained so users can trace material facts.

Which countries are supported for entity resolution?

Coverage is jurisdiction-specific. Review the registry directory and field-availability pages for the documented source, fields and limitations in each country.

How current is the information used by entity resolution?

Freshness depends on the source registry and field. Zephira records retrieval context and documents refresh cadence rather than implying that every field updates continuously.
