Frequently Asked Questions

New incorporations typically appear on Slopless within seconds of being registered at Companies House. We monitor multiple sources to ensure you're seeing new companies as early as possible. Slopless users are usually made aware a company has incorporated before its owner is.

SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) codes are the industry codes that every UK company must register with. For example, 69201 is "Accounting and auditing activities." Slopless lets you filter the live stream by these codes so you only see companies in industries relevant to you, and get an audible alert when one appears.

When a new company is incorporated and one of its directors already has appointments at other companies, Slopless detects this and labels it as a GROUP. This tells you the director is experienced and already running other businesses - often a stronger lead than a first-time incorporation.

It lets you search any UK company, see its active directors, and then explore every other company each director is appointed to. If you already work with one company, you can quickly discover a director's full portfolio of businesses - each one is a warm referral opportunity because you share a connection.

Upload a spreadsheet of up to 500 company names. Overnight, Slopless looks up each company, finds its directors, and maps all their other active appointments. By 9am the next day, you can download a full export - or preview it in your browser. It's the Referral Finder at scale.

Pick specific directors to watch. Slopless regularly checks whether they've been appointed to any new companies. If they have, you'll see an alert in-app (and by email, if you've enabled it). Useful for staying on top of key contacts who regularly form or join new businesses.

Add newly incorporated companies to your Website Watcher from the Live Stream (using the watch button or the name copy + SN shortcut) or automatically from your Incorporation Digest. Slopless checks daily whether they have launched a website. If a website is discovered within 30 days, you'll see it on your Website Watcher page and receive an email notification if enabled. You can add up to 150 companies per week.

Everything displayed on Slopless is sourced from the Companies House public API and the public Companies House register. We don't scrape private databases, buy contact lists, or access anything that isn't freely available to anyone. We simply surface it faster and in a more useful format.

No. Your Referral Finder searches are not stored at all. Your Bulk Referral jobs, Referrals Watcher entries, and alert history are all private to your account - no other user can see them. The only shared items are SIC presets and keyword sets, which are visible to other members of your organisation to help your team coordinate.

No. Referral Finder queries are not logged or stored. Results exist only in your browser session. When you close the tab, they're gone.

Your original spreadsheet is never uploaded to our server - only the company names extracted from it are sent. The processed results are stored temporarily and automatically deleted after 7 days. Only you (and platform administrators for support purposes) can access your job.

No. Each user's activity is isolated. Your SIC filter selections and keyword watches are stored locally in your browser and never transmitted to the server. Your bulk jobs, watchlist entries, and referral searches are all invisible to other users. The only exception is SIC presets and keyword sets, which are shared within your own organisation to support team collaboration.

No. We don't sell, rent, or share your data with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. The only external services involved are Companies House (where all company data comes from) and a transactional email provider for alert delivery if you enable it. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.

We use a single session cookie to keep you logged in - that's it. No analytics cookies, no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers. Your in-app preferences (theme, filters, view settings) are stored locally in your browser and never sent to our server.
