New company alerts for accountants (UK)

Spot newly incorporated limited companies early and get a simple daily feed you can act on. Not sure why timing matters? Learn when new limited companies tend to appoint an accountant.

LaunchRegister monitors official Companies House public data and sends daily email alerts with a downloadable CSV file. No dashboard. No noise. Just a predictable workflow that helps your firm review new incorporations and decide who to contact.

Who this is for

LaunchRegister is built for UK accountancy practices (owners, partners, managers) who want a low-effort way to:

• keep an eye on new limited company incorporations
• review a fresh list each day
• run a repeatable outreach process without manual searching

If you already have a consistent review → shortlist → outreach → CRM routine or want one, this is designed to fit.

What you get (email + CSV)

1 - A daily email alert

A clear summary of the latest matching incorporations, including counts and links to the CSV.

2 - A downloadable CSV file

A clean file you can save, filter, import, or pass to your team.

• works well with Excel / Google Sheets
• easy to import into most CRMs (or your own spreadsheet tracker)

No dashboard. LaunchRegister is intentionally “email + CSV” so it stays simple and predictable.

How fresh is the data?

LaunchRegister runs on a daily schedule using Companies House public data.

In practice, you’ll receive a daily file containing companies that have been newly incorporated and match your criteria.

What’s included in each record

Each CSV row is a single company, pulled from standard Companies House fields. Typically you’ll see:

• Company name
• Company number
• Incorporation date
• Company status (where provided)
• Registered office address (including postcode when available)
• SIC code(s) / nature of business
• Companies House record link so you can verify details quickly

Where Companies House fields are missing or not published yet, the CSV will reflect that (rather than guessing or filling gaps).

Filters (SIC + postcode)

You can configure the feed so it stays relevant to your firm.

LaunchRegister can be set up to filter by:

• SIC code(s) (industry)
• Postcode / area (location)

How firms use the daily feed

1 - Review

Open the email, check the headline numbers, and quickly scan what’s come through. If it looks relevant, download the CSV and do a fast sense-check: are these the types of incorporations you’d normally want to speak to, and are they in the locations you cover? The Companies House links make it easy to verify anything that looks promising without leaving your process.

2 - Shortlist

Use your usual criteria to narrow the list to a manageable set. For many firms that’s a quick filter by industry (SIC), postcode area, and anything you know doesn’t fit your proposition. The aim is not to contact everyone, it’s to consistently pick out the companies that look like a sensible match for your firm.

3 - Outreach

Reach out in the way that fits your firm’s approach and compliance comfort. Some practices prefer a light-touch introductory email, others use post, and some will only contact once they’ve done a little more internal qualifying. LaunchRegister doesn’t dictate your method, it gives you a timely, verifiable starting point so your outreach can happen while the company is still choosing suppliers.

4 - Maintain record in CRM

Record what you did so the process becomes repeatable and easy to manage over time. That might be a CRM, a spreadsheet, or a simple pipeline tracker. Logging lets you avoid duplicate contact, track responses, and hand the routine to a team member without losing consistency. Over time, it also helps you refine your filters based on what actually fits your firm.

The goal is not more tools. It’s a repeatable process that helps you act earlier, with less manual effort.

If you want a practical outreach cadence (and a simple way to track follow-ups), new company leads for accountants explains the workflow in more detail.

What it's not

LaunchRegister is deliberately focused in scope.

• Not it's own data source. We only use official Companies House public data so you can see exactly where every field comes from and verify it quickly.
• No enrichment. We don’t append phone numbers, emails, or third-party attributes because those sources vary in quality and create avoidable compliance and accuracy risks. You’re working from a clean, known dataset.
• No scoring or prediction. We don’t guess who’s most likely to buy or label founders as "high intent”. Accountants know their own client criteria best, and keeping judgement with your team avoids black-box decisions and keeps the service trustworthy.
• No dashboard. Email + CSV is intentional: it keeps the process predictable, easy to delegate, and low-maintenance. You don’t need another system your team has to log into to get value each day.
• No guaranteed outcomes claims. This is a workflow tool that helps you act earlier and more consistently; results still depend on your proposition, follow-up, and market.

You stay in control of your criteria and your outreach process.

FAQs

Is this compliant with GDPR/PECR?
LaunchRegister provides public Companies House data in a filtered, structured format. Your firm remains responsible for how you use the data and how you conduct outreach (including your own compliance checks and preferred contact methods). LaunchRegister does not provide consent flags or marketing permissions.

How is this different from downloading lists from Companies House?
Companies House data is available publicly, but it’s not packaged for a daily workflow. LaunchRegister is a practical layer that monitors daily changes, filters to your criteria, and delivers a usable CSV without manual searching.

Can you tailor alerts to a particular niche?
Yes, the feed can be configured around SIC codes and postcode areas so you’re not wading through irrelevant incorporations. For details, check out filtering new company alerts by sic code or postcode.

Do I need a CRM?
No. Many firms start with a spreadsheet. The CSV format makes it easy to track outreach in whatever system you already use.

When are the emails sent?
Delivery is daily on a predictable schedule. Exact timing can vary slightly but the intent is a consistent routine your team can rely on.

Can I change filters later?
Yes, whilst the product is in pilot phase all you need to do is send a simple message to us and we can update your filters. We will be implementing self-serve filter management soon.
