Companyweb
Credit & compliance

For sales prospecting specifically
Neither Trends Top nor Companyweb is built for outbound sales
If your job is finding your next Belgian customer, not doing market research or credit checks. Prospexi is the tool designed for that workflow. ICP scoring across 1.18M Belgian companies, company events from the Belgisch Staatsblad, VLAIO subsidies, procurement wins, and a daily ranked shortlist with peer comparison by sector. Companies in bankruptcy, dissolution or judicial reorganisation drop off the Prospexi list automatically, because the Belgian Official Gazette is read every working day. Prospexi does not hand you another database to search: it ranks all 1.18 million Belgian companies against your mandate and says per company why it sits where it does, weighing acquisition signals a credit score never shows, such as capital increases, board changes and a profit sliding at an otherwise healthy company.

From 1,179,575 Belgian companies, Prospexi surfaces the ones that match your mandate, with the reasoning attached.
