# US Company Data API

> Access every US company from one API

GovFiles is your source for reliable, accurate US company data. Whether you're verifying a business exists, pulling officers and registered agents, or tracking filing trends across all 50 states, we offer a comprehensive solution backed by excellent customer service.

Our data is sourced directly from official government sources and kept current with historical coverage so you can see both active and dissolved companies.

We normalize every state's records into a single schema, so the same query works whether you're looking up a Delaware LLC or a California corporation. The production API is hosted at `https://api.govfiles.dev`.
