WireScreen provides the world's most powerful open-source intelligence (OSINT) on corporate ownership, investment, and relationships in China.
WireScreen offers comprehensive coverage of China’s most strategic sectors, without the noise that typically comes with it. Our entity resolution technology turns records from over 50 primary sources – including corporate records, government documents, financial exchange data, and millions of commercial transactions – into a structured, searchable network of more than 14 million organizations and over 25 million executives, investors, and stakeholders.
From hiding military connections to evading sanctions and trade controls, businesses in China have plenty of reasons to obfuscate their activities. WireScreen counters the most common tactics by automatically passing on risk classifications to subsidiaries, joint ventures, and new companies with similar investments or executive personnel, and making them easy to find.
Use our powerful web application to visualize networks and explore industries, add essential China coverage to your global application via the WireScreen API, or expand your awareness with specialized data feeds for military end use, forced labor, and other critical issues.
