Case Study - Spark AI

The Problem:

Picture being a business development manager (BDM) tasked with researching a potential client's director history. Typically, this involves trawling through the vast database of Companies House. However, when our BDM, let's call them Alex, searched for 'Arthur Henry Bacha', they were inundated with over 400,000 results. Talk about finding a needle in a haystack!

The Search:

In this sea of data, finding the 'real' Arthur Henry Bacha was akin to finding a diamond in the rough. With four different filings, one buried deep on the eighth page, identifying his 19 directorships seemed like an insurmountable task. Manual, time-consuming, and frustrating, this process was far from efficient.

The How

The Result

Hours saved data gathering.

Spark AI successfully and automatically matched the real  Arthur Henry Bacha and listed all the companies he was associated with.

And, perhaps more importantly, identified 3 insolvencies, with their relevant statement of affairs, that weren’t immediately visible. The system even allows the user to click on each historic appointment to check if there has been an insolvency and do your own DD.
