Show HN: CoRepo, a Company Search Engine

I like that it's really fast. I hit enter and the results seem to come up instantly!

I don't have a use for this, but I tried a few queries anyway. The search results seem surprising to me. Some examples:

0) mortgage -> first result is State of New Jersey Department of Education

1) kpmg -> first result is PwC, second result is KPMG (correct)

2) bdo -> first result is BBDO, second result is BDO (correct)

3) transferwise -> first result is TransferWise (correct), second result is Habito (another online consumer finance company)

It's cool that you've grouped companies somehow, and aren't just showing results that match company names.

The UI is also very clean.

The ability to browse by criteria alone (with no search query) is nice, but it took me a couple of minutes to discover it: https://corepo.org/search/?q=country%3D&page=5&page_size=10&...

I needed a full text searchable database of companies for another project, decided to release it as a stand alone to test how many other people need this kind of search. The meta data is not curated it is collected with crawlers and NLP on the open web. If you would be interested in paid API access let me know I could implement that pretty fast. Or if you think I should dedicate more time to building out the free web frontend encouraging words would be very much appreciated.
