Companies House plus official UK overlays

What we check

The signals that matter before money moves.

Vettit is not a raw Companies House mirror. It translates public records into practical decision support, with visible confidence and clear separation between facts and interpretation.

Accounts status

Late or overdue filings often matter more than polished sales copy.

Director history

Resignations, short tenures, and dissolved-company patterns change the risk picture.

Financial resilience

Revenue, margins, net assets, cash, and working capital help answer whether there is room for error.

Charges and borrowing

Registered charges can indicate existing lender claims over important assets.

Sector context

Some ratios are normal in one industry and a real warning sign in another.

Official warnings

Insolvency, enforcement, and regulator records matter because they are explainable and public.

Why people buy

The paid report is built for higher-stakes calls.

The free view helps you screen quickly. The paid layer exists for situations where the cost of being wrong is materially higher than £4.99.

Accounts overdue while asking for a large upfront deposit

Vettit explains not just the issue, but what it means in practice before you commit.

Several recent director resignations before a contract starts

Vettit explains not just the issue, but what it means in practice before you commit.

Outstanding charges against core company assets

Vettit explains not just the issue, but what it means in practice before you commit.

Negative net assets with weak liquidity

Vettit explains not just the issue, but what it means in practice before you commit.

Free tools

Useful, indexable, and built around real checks.

Pricing

Clear pricing without the usual friction.

The free product should feel generous. The paid layer should feel clearly more valuable and still low-friction to buy when the decision matters.

Questions people ask

Trust depends on being explicit about limits.

Is Vettit a credit bureau?

No. Vettit analyses public company data, filing behaviour, director history, charges, and official enforcement datasets. It does not use private payment data or regulated credit files.

Is the free report genuinely useful?

Yes. The free report includes the score, verdict, top red flags, filing status, key financial snapshot where available, and data freshness. The paid layer goes deeper rather than withholding the basics.

What if the company has limited accounts?

Vettit keeps the report useful by leaning harder on filing behaviour, director history, charges, enforcement signals, and company profile context. Limited disclosure reduces confidence, which is shown explicitly.

Can I use this before paying a builder or vendor?

Yes. That is one of the main use cases. The supplier lens is built to answer whether it looks safe to hand money over and how cautious you should be about deposits and staged payments.

Can I use this before taking on a client?

Yes. The client lens reframes the same public data around invoice risk, payment capacity, filing discipline, and whether you should tighten terms or request deposits.
