- Internal demo, not for distribution.
The product: what a seller acts on
Nine real changes, picked for variety. Each shows the owning company and its Companies House number, the link that turns a nursery name into a sales lead.

How it arrives
No logins to learn. A file lands in your inbox.
Public sources
Ofsted register data and Companies House bulk data, both public.
Agents diff and match
Each week we compare registers, spot opened, closed and resized settings, and match owners to companies.
Email or CSV, Mondays
A short email and a CSV for your sales team. API and CRM push on the higher tier.
Who buys it, and why they pay
Firms that sell into nurseries
Roughly 300 to 800 UK firms: nursery software, insurers and brokers, food and resource suppliers, recruiters, trainers. They sell to about 28,000 group childcare settings.
One win pays for a year
A new nursery picks its software, insurer and suppliers in its first months. One software customer is worth £950 to £2,400 a year at list prices, so one extra win covers the feed many times over.
Price and next step
Feed
£49–99 /month
Weekly email and CSV of opened, closed and resized settings with owner company. First month free, then pay or walk.
Feed plus groups
£150–250 /month
Adds owner-group linkage (all sites of one company) and CRM or API push.
Proposed first channel: cold B2B email to childcare software vendors.
Caveats. Weekly freshness is not proven: today's source is twice-yearly. Registered owner renames in the data are the same legal entity under a new name, not sales, so we do not headline them. Nobody has paid yet.
