ABOUT WREN DATA

# A simpler way to buy and use UK business data

We build the technology, verify and maintain the data, and give customers direct access through one UK platform, with live counts, clear pricing and no sales call required.

WHY WE BUILT WREN

## Experience shaped a different approach

Wren was founded on more than 15 years of experience building and operating UK business data products. That experience revealed the same problems repeatedly: hidden prices, lengthy sales processes, disconnected data files and software separated from the information it sells.

We created Wren to bring the whole process together. We build the technology, compile and maintain the data, and give customers direct access through one service.

BEHIND THE PLATFORM

## Many sources.One consistent business record.

We combine official registers, licensed datasets and public business information, then match, cleanse and validate it through our own systems. Around 20 million updates processed each month keep the data current.

An illustration of Wren's data process: detailed extracts from official registers, licensed datasets, business websites and public profiles flow into the Wren data engine, which matches, combines, cleanses, verifies and updates them — rejecting information it cannot confirm — and produces one verified business record spanning company, contact, financial, geographic, compliance and specialist information, drawn from 350+ available fields.
