Turn a market question into a list of real businesses
Use ANZSIC industry classification, geography, company size and other filters to define a market, count the businesses inside it and inspect the organisations behind the number.
Start broad, then narrow the market
ANZSIC gives you a consistent industry structure for Australian and New Zealand businesses. Begin with a broad division or move into more specific categories, then combine industry with location, size and other attributes to define the segment you actually want to study.
See the businesses behind the count
A market size is more useful when you can inspect what it contains. KnowFirst lets you open the underlying business profiles, compare records and verify whether the organisations fit the question you are trying to answer.
Add more than registry data
Business profiles can combine registration facts with websites, technology, people, jobs, reviews, news, search activity, contracts and other public signals. This gives research teams a richer view than a simple company register extract.
Make recurring research repeatable
Save business searches and run them again later against the refreshed database. Keep relevant organisations in lists and export selected fields to CSV for analysis, reporting or further research.
