Problem
Financial data workflows often struggle with inconsistent company name strings, missing security identifiers, and duplicate entity lookups, leading to costly manual reconciliation and inaccurate reporting.
Solution
Finsurf offers a Security Matching API that standardizes company name inputs by fuzzy‑matching them to official SEC entities. The service enriches matched entities with ISINs, CUSIPs, and ticker symbols in a single call, eliminating the need to combine multiple vendor feeds. Users access the functionality through one HTTPS endpoint and are billed only for unique entities matched within a billing period, with the first 10,000 matches each month provided at no cost. This streamlined approach reduces data cleaning effort, improves identifier accuracy, and lowers operational expenses for applications that consume security data.
