Find newly incorporated companies that need an accountant.
Every new limited company needs accounts, a tax return and a compliance calendar from day one — most don't have an accountant yet. Filter the companies that incorporated this week by sector and location, and reach them before anyone else does.
The window is the first few weeks
A company that has just incorporated is making its first decisions about bookkeeping, VAT registration, payroll and its year-end. The firm that reaches them first usually wins the relationship for years. But the free Companies House register can't show you 'companies formed this week near me' — CompaniesIQ can, filtered to exactly the businesses you want to serve.
What you get.
This week's new companies
Every UK incorporation is searchable within 24 hours. Build a list of companies formed today, this week or this month — the ones still choosing an accountant.
Filtered to your patch
Narrow by region and city so you're only reaching companies you can realistically serve, plus by sector if you specialise (contractors, e-commerce, property, care).
The people to contact
Each company comes with its directors and registered office, so you know who founded it and where — the starting point for a personal, relevant approach.
Straight into your CRM
Export the list to CSV or pull it through the API, and drop it into your outreach or practice-management tool without re-keying anything.
Three steps to a targeted list.
Filter new incorporations
Start from this week's new companies and narrow by region, city and — if you specialise — sector, until the list is the businesses you want as clients.
Review and prioritise
See each company's directors, location and activity, and prioritise the formations that best fit your ideal client profile.
Reach out first
Export the list and run a timely, relevant campaign — reaching founders while they're still setting up their finances.
Point it at the right companies.
Browse by industry
Target sectors you specialise in — contractors, property, healthcare, hospitality.
Browse by city
Focus on companies forming in your town or region.

Questions from accountants.
How can accountants find newly incorporated companies?
Companies House publishes every new incorporation, and CompaniesIQ makes those searchable within 24 hours — filter by region, city and sector to build a list of companies formed today, this week or this month. These are the businesses making their first decisions about bookkeeping, tax and compliance, so timing your approach to their formation is far more effective than a cold generic list.
Can I find new companies near me?
Yes. Filter new formations by UK region and city so you only see companies you can realistically serve. You can layer a sector filter on top if you specialise in, say, contractors, e-commerce sellers or property companies.
What information do I get about each company?
Company name, number, incorporation date, registered office, SIC activity codes, status, and the directors and persons with significant control — enough to understand who founded the business, where it's based and what it does before you reach out.
Can I export the list to contact them?
Yes. Any filtered list exports to CSV, and Team and Enterprise add API access so the companies drop straight into your CRM or practice tool. Companies House data is public record under the Open Government Licence — but your outreach still has to follow UK marketing rules (PECR/GDPR), especially for email.
